Daring Card Makers Challenge - Gardens

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week is

Gardens

I've made this cute card using a Lili of the Valley image - Take It Easy, which I've coloured with Promarkers.  All the papers are from my stash and they are from a really old pack which I'm trying to use up and I've got a lot of oddments from previous projects to use!  Sentiment is computer generated.

Good luck with the challenge!

Colour Crazy Challenge - Week 25 - Polkadoodles

It's time for a new Colour Crazy Challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

This week we are sponsored by Polkadoodles and I've made a card for a work colleague who has moved to a different team.  I've used one of the images from Work and Play 11 and coloured her with Promarkers.  Papers and everything else are from my stash - using up oddments from previous projects.

Good luck with the challenge!

I Love Promarkers - Challenge 438 - Bugaboo

 It's Wednesday so time for a new I ❤ Promarkers challenge!  The theme this fortnight is

Animals

And we are sponsored by Buagboo and I've used Farm Critters Stack, coloured with Promarkers and coloured pencils for the sky.  I've used a fancy die to cut the image and the base is an offcut of card from a previous project that needed using up.  Half pearls, embroidery thread and charm all from my stash.

Good luck with the challenge!

Melvin The Mod

A while ago (when I had more time than I have now!) I went through all the Dr Digi images I had printed out to see if there was one I'd not used before and came across Melvin the Mod.  So he got coloured up with Promarkers and I have quite a few vintage roadmaps in my stash so used one of those and some plain card.

Worked out quite well I thought!

Daring Card Makers Challenge - Checked Patterns

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week is

Checked Patterns

I've made a card using lots of offcuts - the background paper is oddments from previous projects along with the stars.  The frame has been cut using two square dies and the letters and sentiment also from bits of kraft card.  String from the kitchen drawer!

Good luck with the challenge!

Colour Crazy Challenge - Week 23 - Oddball Stamps

 It's time for a new Colour Crazy Challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

This week we are sponsored by Oddball stamps and I decided to use one of the fab Funny Yeti Faces, coloured with Promarkers and then added it to the card base with a homemade spring.  Sentiment is computer generated and I've finished off my doodling a line around the edge of the card!

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge

 It's time for a new Polkadoodle challenge and this week the theme is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make a girly card and here is mine!  I've used Ruby Sweet digi stamp and coloured her with Promarkers plus a little glitter glue on her underskirts.  I've layered the image onto some lemon card I found in my stash and then used Blushing Blooms 6x6 paper underneath.  Finished it off with liquid pearl dots, ribbons and half pearls from my stash and blingy numbers.

Good luck with the challenge!

Father's Day: World's Best Dad (Again!)

Another World's Best Dad Father's Day card using an image from Dr Digi and a sentiment from the Father's Day Sentiment Sheet which I've coloured with Promarkers to match the colour scheme.  Papers are ancient as I'm trying to use up my stash and I've added some half pearls for added detail.

Daring Card Makers - Up The Flag Pole!

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week is

Up The Flag Pole

I've used the USA flag as inspiration - mainly the colours and the stars (didn't manage the stripes!) and have used up oddments from my stash to make it plus a black fine liner pen for the faux running stitch.  An X Cut star die plus used up some Swiss Dots embossed white card that I found in my stash.  

The sentiment die is from my stash and I've use the negative part for a change.  Good luck with the challenge!

Colour Crazy Challenge - Week 22 - Lee Holland Art

 It's time for a new Colour Crazy Challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

This week we are sponsored by Lee Holland Art and I've used the cute Celebration Bunny, coloured with Promarkers and a little bit of sparkle.  Papers are my stash, along with the ribbon.  I've used Clearly Besotted dies and cut them twice, glossy accented them and the sprinkled fine glitter over the top so they are quite glittery!  The numbers are from the pound shop.

Good luck with the challenge!

Father's Day: World's Best Dad

Father's Day is fast approaching and here is a card I made using World's Best Dad from Dr Digi and a sentiment from the bargain Father's Day Sentiment Sheet.  Image has been coloured with Promarkers plus glossy accents for the glasses and the papers are almost as old as time - I'm trying to use up all my stash but I have a feeling it will outlive me!  Found some card candy too so those have been added.

Daring Card Makers Challenge - June Elemental Inspiration

It's time for a new Daring Cardmakers challenge and the theme this week is an Elemental Inspiration picture because it's the first Friday of a new month!  You need to pick at least three elements from the picture below and colours count as one choice

I've used a no longer available digi stamp by From The Heart Stamps and used Promarkers to colour, tiny gems on the flip flops and added the sentiment tag with bakers twine from my stash.  My elements are:  the colours, summer theme, text, flip flops, sea, flowers and the geometric pattern.

Good luck with the challenge!

This week we are sponsored by Twistoon and  I've used Milly Bee Gnome digi stamp from our very wonderful and generous sponsor (there are hundreds of fab images in the store - you will be spoilt for choice!) and coloured her up with Promarkers.  I've kept the card very clean and simple and added a die cut sentiment that was on the table and needed using up!

Good luck with the challenge!
