For The Newlyweds



I printed this adorable image from pollycraft ages ago intending to use it for a different card, but changed my mind at the last moment, so it's been sitting on my drawer ever since! I coloured it with promarkers - sandstone, caramel, rose pink, almond and vanilla.

The papers are from papermania's capsule collections and I layered on craft card. Used some ribbon from sew sweet and a few gems to embellish.

Thinking Of You



I cut a 4.25 x 5.75 inch card base and used Bo Bunny papers for this card. The image is one of the crystal fairy's from pollycraft, coloured in promarkers - pear green, marsh green, henna, chestnut, amber, honeycomb, spie, rose pink, cornflower, duck egg and blush.
The sentiment is from stampin' up's three little words set and I added ribbon from sew sweet and some gems to finish.

Rock Around The Clock



I was sort of convinced all the way through making this card, that I was going to hate it, but actually, I think I love it!

I had no idea what I was going to do, until I foudn these images from Digi My World - the fabulous Jukebox Jenny from their 50's combo pack and coloured her with my promarkers: rose pink, cornflower, duck egg, ruby, sky blue, cool grey 3, cool grey 4, buttercup, vanilla, mutard, almond, blush, slate and one of the letraset fine drawning pens - and raised them on dimension pads.

The papers from from Simply Cards and Papercrafts Magazine's American Crafts paper back and I layered it on black card from the paper company. I used ribbon from Sew Sweet and Offray and finished with a computer generated sentiment (Font: Bambina) and a few pink gems.

Cupcake Birthday



I used freebie papers from homemade magazine layered on red cardstock from the paper company, for this card. The image is a pollycraft digi, coloured with promarkers - ruby, poppy, sandstone, caramel, cornflower, buttercup, mustard and pear green, adding some glitter glut to the cupcake icing to really make it pop :).

The sentiment is stampin' up. I used brads and buttons from my stash and petaloo colour me crazy flowers coloured with poppy and cornflower promarkers, to embellish.
