I Love Promarkers - Challenge 382 - Ike's Art

It's time for a new I 💗 Promarkers Challenge and the theme this fortnight is:

Anything Goes / Embossing

I've used this fab freebie from Ike's Art who is our sponsor - Coronet.  I've coloured it in with Promarkers plus added some half pearls here and there.  The background has been embossed with a Sizzix folder and then layered onto an offcut of pink card from my stash.

The bakers twine and charm are also from my stash.  Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Go Hawks!

I made this card for my husband's Birthday as he goes and watches Blackburn Hawks practically every week during the season.  Ice Hockey Hugh has been coloured with Promarkers and I've used the team's emblem in the background.

I used a gelly roll white pen for the sentiment and the stitched border around the edge of the card.  I'd like to enter the following:

Daring Card Makers - Bingo!

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers challenge and this week we are playing bingo!

Just pick a line and let us know what you've gone for!

I've gone for Clean and Simple / Thread or Twine / Gems.  I've scored a line around the edge of the card and used Sundae from Dr Digi, which I've coloured with Promarkers and added to the card base with foam pads.  

I dug out my trusty box of gems and added some to the top of the sundae and also at the bottom of the card, hand wrote the sentiment and added some bakers twine to add to my card.

Good luck with the challenge!

Polkadoodle Challenge - Anything Goes or Flowers

It's time for a new Polkadoodle challenge and the theme as always is

Anything Goes

The DT were challenged to make something for Mother's Day that isn't a card and to add flowers.
I've used flowers printed from the Sugar Birdies CD - I've had these in my stash for quite some time and I'm trying to use up what I already have!  I've used one of the Fanciful Circles dies and also a Stitched and Pierced die.

The buttons and embroidery thread are from my stash and I've used a Sizzix and a Clearly Besotted die for the wording.

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 182 - Anything Goes

It's time for a new Crimbo Crackers challenge and the theme, as always is

Anything Goes

I've used an image I found in my stash - Reindeer With Christmas Lights and coloured it with Promarkers.  I found some holly and berry die cuts in my stash (I was looking for something else) so I've used those too.

The paper is from Funky Hand and is retired and it was also in my stash and I'm trying hard to use up all my digitally printed papers before I either print any more or buy them!

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Do-Nut Worry

Do-Nut worry!!  Mind you, I could eat this right now but as long as it doesn't have a custard filling as I can't stand cold custard..... yugh!!

Made with a pre-coloured image from Dr Digi - Coffee Time - I've added a glazed (glossy accents) swirly thing on the top plus a Swiss Dots embossed background.  And this is layered onto a kraft background.

Waxed cord from my stash and I generated the sentiment on my computer.  I'd like to enter the following:

It's time for a new Daring Card Makers challenge and as its the first Friday in the month, it is an elemental inspiration challenge!

Please pick three different elements from the photo (colour counts as one) and list them in your entry!

I've used the woodgrain effect - created with a Gemini embossing folder, the flowers (which some I've had in my stash for longer than I care to remember) plus colour, frame - using the Fabulous Mitred Frames from Polkadoodles and finally a mix of different clear acrylic stamps to represent the wording.

I Love Promarkers - Challenge 381 - Knitty Kitty Digis

Time for another I ❤ Promarkers challenge!  This fortnight we are sponsored by the lovely Knitty Kitty Digis and the theme is

Something Square

I've gone for a square card base and have used one of the images from the Balloon Chicken Set and coloured it with Promarkers.  I've layered the image onto a scrap of yellow card I found in my stash and the sentiment has been created on my computer.

The stripy paper is from my almost dwindling pile of old printed papers that I need to use up - its from the no longer available Funky Hand - Keep In Touch download.  I've added a faux running stitch around the edge of the card, sentiment and image with a black fineliner pen.

Good luck with the challenge!  I'd like to enter the following:

Coffee Doesn't Ask Silly Questions

Here is a quirky sentiment from Dr Digi - using Coffee Sentiments Sheet, I've selected one of the sentiments and used it as my main focus, cutting it out with an X Cut square die.  I've coloured the coffee cup with Promarkers and dug through all my scraps of printed card to find some that matched, hence the random sizes!

I've inked the edges and added half pearls here and there from my stash.  I'd like to enter the following:
