Hiya blogging pals, its only Tuesday and what a horrid week I am having already!!!! I arrived at work yesterday to be whisked off into a meeting room only to be told that one of my team had collapsed & died playing football at the weekend, he was 31, I cannot believe it, so tragic & he was such a lovely lad!!!
To make it worse the girl who I gave the post it note holder to (a few posts ago) who is going through a rough time is his girlfriend!!!
As you can imagine the atmosphere at work yesterday was rather sombre.
Anyway onto a happier subject & time for the Passion for Promarkers challenge & this week Denise has chosen a recipe:
'Any colours + 3 different shapes, 2 papers, 1 ribbon'
I have used Imaginisce double sided DP Wild Things hip-hippo-ray available from Stampeezee, my shapes are my squares of the card, tags for the sentiment &my 3rd shape are the craftwork card candy dot circles, my ribbon is the twine across the card.
I coloured the adorable Magnolia Lion in the following Promarkers:
Tan, Sandstone, caramel cocoa, cinnamon, umber, warm grey 4 & 5, sunkissed pink, dusky pink & Ivory
I have decorated the inside of this one as I never seem to finish my cards off & I want to start selling them (to get some pennies back for more stash) so I am trying to be organised....LOL

Hi Sarah, your card is adorable and I love your colour combo and the way you finished the inside of your card. So sorry to hear about your colleague, that must have been a terrible shock.
