Happy Good Friday everyone. I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend. I’ve got nothing planned but it is soooo nice to have a long weekend off from work lol! Oh my goodness I thought I was going to be so organised this week with my posts but here we are again with my DT card for the passion for promarkers challenge 3 days late!! I don’t know what happened but it’s better late than never I suppose haha! This week’s theme has been set by Nic and she has chosen “white on white”, which I really like the look of, but it’s something that I always seem to struggle with! Here is my card:
I’m sorry that the photos are so naff but I must have taken about 15 photos and these were the best, they were either too dark or way too light – as it’s so white it is really difficult to capture properly. I hope you can use your imagination as the card is much nicer IRL honest! It’s difficult to tell in the photos but apart from distressing all the edges I also stickled them to within an inch of their lives, so it is really sparkly (shame you can’t see it!). I have used a super fun image from Bugaboo stamps, that I recently won in one of their challenges and the sentiment also comes with the image. I went with a cool blue colour scheme as I thought it would be a nice and crisp contrast to all the white.
Our sponsor this week is DigiStamp Boutique and the lucky winner will receive a £10.00 voucher to spend in their online store. You will be spoilt for choice as Sally-Ann has so many gorgeous images to choose from.
The rest of the design team have created such amazing cards once again this week, so please pop over to the challenge blog and check them out. Alternatively you can click on their names in my sidebar. We really appreciate all the lovely comments you leave for us.

I hope you’ve all been enjoying the glorious weather this week, apparently the UK has even been warmer than Turkey, Spain and France! Unfortunately though today is still quite warm but we’ve had some showers as well, which is a bit of a disappointment. I hope you will be able to join in with our challenge and I can’t wait to see what you create. I would also like to say a big hello *waves* to my newest followers Sylvia and Kym– thanks for following me and I hope to return the favour very soon. I’ve just noticed that I have passed 70,000 hits *yay* so will have to look to see what candy I can offer to celebrate!! Have a wonderful day I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
