Passion For ProMarkers #17 – Polka Dots

Wow, what a response to the blog hop we’ve had over at A Passion For Promarkers so far.  In case you don’t know, there is a FANTASTIC prize of a COMPLETE SET OF THE 56 BRAND NEW COLOURS up for grabs and all you have to do is complete the hop by visiting the 11 design team’s blogs and leaving a comment.  Each one of us has a word which you must “collect” to form a sentence which you then leave in the comment box back at the main Passion For Promarkers blog.  That’s it!  Not much to ask for a chance at such a great prize I don’t think!  You don’t need to own any ProMarkers or make anything – just join in the hop.

Right, on to this week’s challenge which is ANY COLOURS but include POLKA DOTS.  I have a used a great digi image from Willow Designs and the papers are Doodlebug.  Right, I am really behind my schedule now – the washing still isn’t on the line and the breakfast dishes still aren’t in the dishwasher – slap on the wrist for me!  Don’t forget to visit the other DT blogs for some fabulous inspiration and of course join in the hop too.

Hugs,

Caryn.

p.s. I’ll be back in a while to announce the winner of my blog candy.

A Spoonful of Sugar #69 – Autumn

Bit late getting my posts up today – forgot to schedule them last night!!  This is my DT card for the challenge at A Spoonful of Sugar this week which is AUTUMN.  I LOVE this time of year when all the leaves are changing and the light is somehow different.  It really starts me getting ready for Christmas!!!  I have had this paper for years and never used it.  I think I was planning on making a scrapbook page with it at some point.  Anyhoo, I am making a pact with myself that before I buy any more new papers I am going to use up some of the old stuff I’ve got hanging about.  The GG is coloured with ProMarkers – loving these new colours – and the sentimant is from Papertrey InkWe have a great sponsor this week too – pixie cottage and they are offering two gorgeous stamps to one lucky winner

Right, better get on with sorting out the washing.  It’s starting to grey over a little here so want to get it out on the line asap!!

A little [Christmas] blog candy.

THIS CANDY IS NOW CLOSED
PLEASE COME BACK TOMMORROW FOR THE RESULT

Well, unbelievably my blog is exactly 1 year old today!! I have made so many lovely friends in that year and am lucky enough to be on three totally fantastic designs teams. I have learnt so much from my fellow blogging buddies and if you were to look back at my first posts you will see just what I mean!! A year ago I didn’t know what ProMarkers were, what HTML meant or had even heard of Sugar Nellie stamps!!!

To celebrate my 1 year blogaversary (and my nearly 200th follower) I have put together a little giveaway. All you have to do to win my somewhat Christmassey-themed candy is this:

1. Spread the word and link my candy on your blog.

2. Tell me what one item is at the top of your Christmas list this year.

3. Help me make it to 200 and become a follower of my blog (not essential but utterly appreciated if you do!). Anyone who follows will be entered twice so make sure you tell me if you are already a follower.

This is open to everyone and I will post worldwide. I will randomly draw a winner on 14th September and entries will close at 8pm.

Good luck and thanks for dropping by.

Hugs,
Caryn xxx
