Passion For Promarkers #19 – Cool Aqua and Apricot

Week 19 - Cool Aqua and Apricot

Well it’s Tuesday again so I have my double DT post for you.  First up is Passion For ProMarkers and this week we have a gorgeous colour combo picked by our guest DT member Sam which is COOL AQUA and APRICOT.  There is also the added extra of making your own flowers.  The image was sent to me by the fab Katy and the papers are from the Rainbow Sherbet set by SU!.  My latest purchase, my MS Double dot scallop punch has also been well and truly broken in this week so you may see it again very soon!!  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.  Our sponsor this week is Craft Obsessions and you could win a gorgeous Martha Stewart Cosmos punch worth £10.50.  Also for this week you can buy the new colours for just £1.50 each!  Pop on over to the blog for some fab ideas from the DT and have a go at the challenge.

Hugs,

A Spoonful of Sugar #71 – Christmas

YES!  I do love Christmas, there’s so much glitter about!  As if you didn’t realise, our challenge at ASOS this week is Easter – gotcha, of course it’s CHRISTMAS!!  I have used a gorgeous image from Mo’s Digital Pencil called  Christmas Fairy Holly – isn’t she gorgeous?  She’s coloured with Promarkers but in real life the red of her dress is much richer than it looks in the photo.  I used Berry and Crimson for the dress and Pear Green and olive for the holly wings.  The papers are from BG (Fruitcake) and did you spot it?  Yes, as promised I have been busy with my new MS punch again.  Pop on over to the blog for some inspiration from the fabulous DT, the cards are stunning this week – as always!

Cupcake Crafts #59 – Cute as a Bug

Cupcake Crafts are lucky enough to be sponsored this week by Bee Crafty who are offering the challenge winner a choice of 3 images or 1 set.  The DT have used some of the gorgeous images available from the shop in our cards  – go and check out the blog for some great ideas.  I am becoming SO hooked on digi images these days.  I love how they can be resized and so on and they’re SO cheap compared to rubber stamps.  Obviously there are some limitations but unless you want to emboss etc, then digi is the way to go!!   I wish all stamp manufacturers offered a digi version of their stamps (like CC Designs do).

Anyway, my card uses the Fluffy Bunny with flowers image coloured with PMs and stickles.  The the papers are SU! and the border is my favourite MS punch.  My “bug” is the butterflies!

Ok, have a great day wherever you are.
