Favourite Colours, with PASSION FOR MARKERS

 Hello again my lovely blog chums.....I hope this week is going well so far.

So, we have a fabulous new challenge at 

PASSION FOR MARKERS 

Elaine has set the theme of FAVOURITE COLOURS.

Our lovely sponsors are 

Who have a great prize for our lucky winner and also provided the team wipth some fabulous images to work with.

I plumped for "Working hard Winnie", which I coloured with Promarkers. To meet the theme , I love pairing Blues and Brown's together.....and also Vanilla as a hair colour. I am also using a gorgeous paper download from Polkadoodles. I decided to paper piece the armchair and her mug with this download, I think it has a cosy but also contemporary look......and I would love a comfy chair just like this!!!! I used a sentiment stamp. Dies used were, scalloped border, faux stitched square and a wee pennant die. I also added a little flower brad and a wooden key embellishment.

Last Christmas I Gave You My Heart

 Hello there my lovely blog chums and how's things with you?

We were lucky enough to have ourselves a two night away break, this weekend, borrowing a Motorhone from some friends. We didn't go very far from home just down to  Canterbury but it was something different for us and we had great fun.

Anyway, today it's the start of a  new challenge at 

CHRISTMAS WITH THE CUTIES 

ANYTHING CUTE AND CHRISTMAS

 Theme: "Last Christmas, I gave you my heart"

We hope to see some fabulous ways of "hearts" being featured on your cards. For my own DT card this came with the wording of Heart and also die cut hearts. We do hope that you will hop on over and play along with us.

This absolute Cutie is "Christmas Holly " from LOTV, and I am using Promarkers to colour . The sentiment is also from LOTV. I am using a paper offcut which was a Nitwit download. A gorgeous edged border die and a sweet little pair of heart shaped dies to complete.

I would like to enter these challenges please:

As you like it Floral or Cute?? Cute for me!!! Soooo many cute images to work with, something for everyone! I love it when someone picks up one of my cards and say, "awwwww, that is sooo cute"

Spring Colour's and Crafty Friends

 Hello again, my lovely blog chums....hope you've had an enjoyable week.

It's been a busier blogging week for me, and now I'm here to tell you all about our fabulous,  latest challenge with

Crafty Friends 

Our theme is 

SPRING COLOURS 

and we've even given you a little colour palette to set you on your way 

For a spring theme, what could be better than a bunch of tulips....one if my favourites, and I wish they lasted longer. I am using a super cute digi stamp from LOTV, which I've coloured with Promarkers. Cut with circular dies, and mounted onto a pretty doily. For my paper combo,  I am using a gorgeous flowery paper, which looks a bit like a tulip, from My Favourite Things. I have paired this with an old off cut, and was delighted that the colours matched well together. Ribbon from The Ribbon Girls.

You'll Find Me In The Garden, with PASSION FOR MARKERS

 Hello there my lovely blog chums, I hope that this finds you well. Did you have a good weekend? I had a lovely Saturday afternoon out with my daughter then my Mother came to 6s for dinner on Sunday. I was thoroughly spoiled by my daughter who made me a wonderful Mother's Day goodie bag with Pyjamas, Ferrero Rocher, socks, a candle and matching Reed diffuser, and an Adam Kay book....she is a very thoughtful soul, and I am blessed to have her as my daughter. 

Anyway, back to today and it's time for a new challenge at 

PASSION FOR MARKERS 

I am super excited as it was my turn to set the theme....as the weather had been so lovely recently, and I think we've all enjoyed the opportunity to get out into the fresh air, I have plumped for 

YOU'LL FIND ME IN THE GARDEN!

Our lovely sponsors are 

Who have a great prize for our lucky winner.

They also provided some completely adorable images for the team to work with and I couldn't resist this very handsome Gnome, which you can find here. I made this card for my son to send to my mother. So kept the design fairly simple. I am using Promarkers to colour, the sentiment is my own creation. I am using an offcut from my bits and bobs box with a pretty border die.....and that's about it!

Christmas Post

 Hello, lovely blog chums.......I hope you are well. 

I was awake quite early this morning,  so I had a little time to finish this card before work. 

The design itself is based on a challenge, but more of that further down. I am using the very sweet Christmas Post pre coloured digi from LOTV, I will probably add a more personalised sentiment later. The red paper is from a very old Docrafts stack, and the other is a remnant. I added a middle section with a faux stitched die, and a wee die cut circle and button. 

So, I would like to enter these challenges:
