New challenge at Passion for Promarkers

A new challenge is underway at PFP and it's yet another easy one, we are so kind to you! We would like to see your projects using your '3 favourite colours', so pop over to the blog for some inspiration and to see what fabby prizes are up for grabs.

I usually opt for green and pink, however, I fancied a change and as luck would have it, I had been asked to make a card for the greenkeeper at my mum's bowls club, so I chose some more masculine colours and have gone for beige, blue and brown. I was asked to include bowling, drinking and lawn care on the card, pheww! But then I realised that I only had to pop in to Digistamp Boutique as they had all three subjects in the shape of 'Alf' and 'Jim'

                                                                                and inside:


Images - 'Bowling'Alf ,'Cheers Alf', Alf & Beer, 'Jim Mowing Lawn' - all from DSB
Papers - 'Winter Wishes' Nitwit Collections - LOTV
Dies used - 'Starburst' - Joanna Sheen

Challenges:

'Lots of Layers' - Whoopsi Daisy

'Different Folds or Shaped Cards' - Fussy & Fancy

Thanks for visiting!

So cute!

We have another fantastic (and easy!) theme at Passion for Promarkers this fortnight, we would like to see projects featuring 'Cute Animals' - told you it was easy!  My only problem was searching through my boxes of cute images  and narrowing it all down to 1!  but narrow it down I did, and managed to kill two birds with one stone as I made a Christmas card to add to my (pathetically small) pile!
 and here is my DT card :

The oh, so cute image is 'Mistletoe and Mice -Stampavie
Paper  is from 'Gilded Winter' 8 x 8 pad - Trimcraft (most of these these papers are foiled and are Gorgeous!)
Ribbon - The Ribbon Girl
Little bell is from a cracker decoration!
Dies/punches used - main die - 'Holly Jolly Christmas' - Yvonne Creations, Poinsettias  by Britannia Dies from Joanna Sheen and the snowflakes are from a Hobbycraft punch
