Passion for promarkers week 13 – DT card

Over at passion for promarkers challenge we are already on week 13 and the colour combo this week is prussian and pumpkin and was chosen by the lovely Sarah.  However there is an added twist of a halloween theme.  Now I must admit this colour combo was not my favourite but overall I’m quite pleased with how the card turned out.  I stamped the stampendous changito image and coloured it with the following promarkers:

monkey – cinnamon and cocoa

lantern – pumpkin and orange

cape – prussian and blender

shading – cool grey 1

The gorgeous papers are both doodlebug and the plain cs is from the papermill shop.  The sentiment was created on the pc and the ‘boo’ was created with stickers by me & my big ideas.  The ghost was cut in the cuttlebug with a sizzix sizzlit.  The adhesive stones are PM.

Our sponsor this week is Hotshot Crafts and the lucky winner will have £10.00 to spend in their online shop.  I hope you will all find the time to play along this week.  I will catch up with all your comments on my return for hols.  Thanks for stopping by today.

For my card this week I stamped an image by stamping bella called ‘cuppacakeabella’ and coloured her with promarkers, adding stickles to the frosting on the cake.  I thought it would be quite apt to use the same martha stewart punch (I have my own I didn’t use the actual punch) on my card that I am offering as candy to show you the effect.  The paper is by DCWV from ‘the stack’ and the plain cs is from the papermill shop.  The ribbon and brad are from my stash and the flowers were created using the large and medium ek success retro flower punches.  The sentiment was created on the pc and was cut out with my SU oval punches.  I hope you will take part in our blog hop and enter my cupcake candy.  I will not be able to read any comments until my return from hols but I wish you all good luck and thanks for entering.  Thanks for stopping by today. 

Sketch Saturday #63

Here is my entry for this week’s sketch saturday challenge.  I stamped my new greeting farm image ‘sheriff Ian’ and coloured him with promarkers.  The dotty paper is from the dovecraft masculine paper pad and the plain cs is from the papermill shop.  The sentiment is stampendous and the ribbon and brads are from my stash.  The ‘splat’ shapes are cut with a woodware punch and the paper used for these is doodlebug.  I’m just getting organised for our family holiday.  We are leaving tomorrow morning and I haven’t even packed yet lol!  I hope you won’t forget me and will come back on Monday and Tuesday as I will schedule my DT cards for the CCC and PFP challenges.  It’s our anniversary over at cupcake this week and there are exciting things planned – you don’t want to miss them (that’s all I’m saying!).  I can’t believe my bad timing going away and missing all the fun.  Thanks for all your interest in my candy – don’t forget to keep spreading the word as it doesn’t end until after I’m back off my hols.  Thanks for stopping by today.  See you in a week!

Whiff of Joy challenge #43

The whiff of joy challenge this week is a colour challenge and they want us to use brown and pink.  Not too difficult as they are a fab combination.  I stamped the WOJ image ‘confirmand Melinda’ and coloured her with promarkers, adding stickles to her wings.  The paper was a freebie from a craft magazine and the brown cs is bazzill bling (hence the glare – sorry).  The flowers are imaginisce, the spacers are from the hobby house and the pearl brads are PM.  The ric-rac ribbon is from my stash and the large sentiment was created on the pc.  The smaller sentiment is SU from oval all set and I used the matching SU oval punch to cut it out.  The decorative edge was cut with my fiskars scissors.  Apologies for the terrible photo but it was really difficult to get a good one.  Thanks for stopping by. 

PFP week 12 – DT card

Welcome to week 12 over at Passion for Promarkers challenge.  This week the lovely Natalie has chosen the colour combo of Cocoa and Rose Pink.  I decided to stamp my new sugar nellie manga image and I coloured it with the following promarkers:

Dress, boots and bows – rose pink, blossom (and cocoa for buttons)

Tights and sleeves – rose pink and cocoa (highlights with white gel pen)

Hair – cocoa

Skin – Ivory, blush and pastel pink

Shading around image – cool grey 1

The pink paper is doodlebug cupcake swiss dot (available from dies to die for) and the brown paper is SU.  I cut out the image with my new ‘labels 3’ nesties (birthday money again).  The flower was made by punching two medium ek success flowers and adding a brad in the centre, which says sweetie, quite apt I think!  The leaves were punched out with my L-em leaf punch (available at the hobby house here)and the adhesive pearl is kanban.  The super cute sentiment is PB. 

Our sponsor this week is Yellow Moon and the prize is a £10.00 voucher to spend on any of the craft supplies and children's crafts at Baker Ross. 

I’m also entering this card for the Sunday sketch and stamp challenge as I used their sketch.

I hope you will join in with our challenge this week and can’t wait to see your gorgeous creations.  Thanks for stopping by today. 

Cupcake Craft Challenge #52 – DT card

 

I can’t believe I forgot to schedule my post….. so better late than never here is my card for this week’s Cupcake Craft challenge!!  This week Tammy gave us a sketch to follow, but with a twist of using the colour palette on the sketch too.  I used my new SN manga image and coloured her with promarkers.  The blue paper is DCVW from ‘the stack’ and the brown paper is SU (not sure of the name).  The plain cs is from the papermill shop and the flowers are from my stash.  The sentiment is SU from the ‘crazy for cupcakes’ stamp set and the adhesive pearls are basic grey.  I used my nesties to cut out the image and did attempt to use the ‘out-of-bounds technique’ but it went slightly wrong (not too bad for a first attempt though).  I really enjoyed using the sketch and hope you do too.  I can’t wait to visit all your blogs and see your amazing cards.  Don’t forget to check out the rest of the DT cards as they are all gorgeous.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Where has the sun gone???

Stamptacular challenge #18

This is my card for this week’s stamptacular challenge, which is ‘child’s play’.  I stamped the WOJ image and coloured him with my promarkers.  The glitter paper is DCWV from the glitter stack and the plain cs is from the papermill shop.  The sentiment was created on the pc and cut out with my SU oval punches.  The star was cut out with a dovecraft punch and the buttons are from my stash.  A simple card but I really like it, hope you do too!.  Thanks for stopping by today.
