Whispy - Saturated Canary - Passion for Promarkers DT

Good morning, and welcome to my new follower Deb, so happy that you're following me.  Today is the start of a new challenge at Passion for Promarkers where 'Lou' has chosen the theme of 'Easel does it', we want to see your easel cards this week. I have used an old favourite of mine 'Whispy' by Saturated Canary.

It is so difficult to photograph easel cards :(, so I have other version :)

She and the card and layers are cut with Go Create dies. Would you believe I actually made all the flowers too using Britania dies for the roses and a SB Aster for the front of the card.

She is coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Tria Markers and I added Glamour Dust for a little extra sparkle.  The ribbon (which IRL does match the paper) pearls and dazzler are from my stash.

We have two wonderful sponsors this week. Michele from MR Designs who is offering a £10 voucher to spend in store on some of her wonderful Designer Papers and embellishments

and Letraset who are offering a Promarkers Collectors set (Neutral)

Sparkly and Bright - MR Designs - Winter Wonderland DT

Good morning I am back today with a card for our new challenge at Winter Wonderland.  Our theme this week is 'twinkle, twinkle' (all things sparkly and bright) So think sparkle, glitter, bling, stars - really anything sparkly. The lovely Mags is the hostess this week.

Just for a change I haven't done any colouring on this project. The papers I have used are from the 'Winter Frost' collection by Michele who is our wonderful sponsor this week.

I have used one of the designer papers and added part of the fishtail tag and one of the sentiments.  I wish I could get the sparkle to show in a photo as I have used glitter card for one of the mounts, and for the top layer of the MB bauble and the Marianne poinsettia.

The inside uses the same papers with a computer generated sentiment.

I also used rainbow mirror board as the first layer of the bauble. Added some stickles to the sentiment and a few gems from my stash.

The other snowflake ladies, including our new team member Lesley have made some fabulous cards for your inspiration this week and you can find them here.

Please remember Christmas projects only.We are sponsored by

Prize is a 20 Euro voucher

Scarlet Lips - Ching Chou Kuik

Good morning and welcome to my new followers, delighted that you have decided to follow my blog. Today I am back with another Ching-Chou Kuik image 'Scarlet Lips' which you can find here made for her challenges on blogger and facebook.

She is straight cut and mounted on rainbow mirror card and coordinations.  The backing paper is from Nitwits. Waves are a MB die, silver netting from The Ribbon Girl and 

gems from my stash.

She is coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers, Triamarkers and Prisma pencils. I also added a little white pen to emphasize the scales on her tail and glossy accents to the bubbles.

The inside does reflect the front.

Hello Magnolia - Ching Chou Kuik

Good morning and welcome to a sunny north east England.  Today I have another just for fun card.  For this I have used a Ching-Chou Kuik image 'Hello Magnolia', available here.  I have been off work for the past month with neck problem and have spent my time colouring lots of beautiful images, this is certainly one of them

A dramatic red and black, not my usual colours. She is straight cut and the backing paper is from DCWV (I actually cut up a sheet instead of just looking at it). She is mounted on Coordinations black card. The border punch is from MS. Dazzler from Hobby House. I was really daring on this card and stamped my sentiment (from Creative Expressions) straight onto the card. Ribbon from my stash.

She is coloured with Promarkers and Flex markers.

The inside does reflect the front.

Lily Commitment - Ching Chou Kuik

Good morning, today I have another card using one of Ching-Chou Kuik's amazing images 'Lily Commitment'.  I also used a background scene from Sassy Cheryl which unfortunatel is now discontinued.

She is straight cut as are the mounts she is on.  I used black and turquoise glitter card and added Nuvo glitter to the waves and bubbles. The scales on her tail are also picked out with the green version of Nuvo.  The shells are mostly real ones with a couple of scallops from Leif Creative. I added some blue mesh and a pearl string and a few charms from my stash.

I wish I knew a way of getting the glitter to show up in photo's. You can pick out that the bubbles have glossy accents added, as do the pearls she is wearing. She is coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Triamarkers. I Airbrushed the background with a SN marker. 

This is an angled photo trying to get the sparkle to show.

I also added some Glamour dust to the road and house, and of course it doesn't show in the photo :)
