Pink It Up!

We have a new challenge starting today at Passion for Markers and this week it   was my turn to choose a theme and so I would like you to use your  'Favourite Colours' on your projects please - nice and easy! Our sponsor is Colour Of Love



I made some mistakes with my DT card this time - note to self- do not insist on using a Promarker that is going dry as your colouring comes out very 'flat'! And, you would have thought that almost 11 years after my stroke that I would have found a better way of sticking ribbon on with one hand! - hence a very wonky ribbon 😞

Oh well, here it is, warts and all:


I followed a sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2:




Image - 'Sleepytime Danni' - Colour Of Love

Paper - 'Silky Roses' 6x6 pad from The Works 

Dies used: 'Postage Frames' from John Next Door

Pearls and ribbon/bow from stash

Insects

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas

I can't believe it's already time for the first challenge of 2025 at Passion for Markers! We have an unusual theme this time from our lovely Linda - she would like you to 'Include An Insect' 

I found a really sweet image that I thought was perfect for this challenge and here is my DT card:


Image - 'Ladybug Girl' - Whimsy Stamps

Papers (quite old) from my stash

I used Sue Wilson's 'Double Stitched Ovals and 'Looped Ovals' dies to frame  the image

Finished off with a bow and some cute wooden ladybugs
