A card tonight for the Just Magnolia challenge blog. The theme this week is Monochrome - I've chosen blue (slightly obvious from the pics!). I thought this lovely lady suited a get well card so that's one for my stock box. I've invested in some more ProMarkers and am loving playing with them, but perhaps I should challenge myself to make a card without a coloured image!
Supplies Used: Image - Magnolia "Tilda in Spring Rain", coloured with ProMarkers (Ivory, Blush, Sandstone, Caramel, Cinnamon, Blue Pearl, Pastel Blue, Denim Blue, Cool Grey 2 & 4, Powder Blue, Cool Aqua, Sky Blue, Azure, Cyan, Cornflower) and glittered with Stickles (Baby Blue, Waterfall & Diamond), Papers - Craftwork Cards blox & Bo Bunny, Dovecraft Shimmer chalks, Prima flowers, Doodlebug brads, Ribbon from stash, Woodware scallop punch.
Wow, I seem to be on a roll at the minute with my card making - it probably helps that Tim is on a night shift so I have my evenings to myself for a few days. Not that he normally minds me disappearing to make cards, it just means more Xbox time for him! The following card is my entry for the Simon Says Stamp and Papertake Weekly challenges. The challenge at Simon Says Stamp this week was "All That Sparkles" and the Papertake Weekly challenge is the following sketch...
Hopefully my card is sparkly enough! My little lady has been shimmer chalked and stickled, the ribbon is glittery and I've glittered the flowers too...

A couple of cards tonight, scraping in at the last minute for a couple of challenges!This first is my entry for sketch #40 at Inspirational Card Sketches as well as Passion for ProMarkers week 23, where this week you can use any colours but must include an animal somewhere on your creation. 
This card is pretty simple - I tend to make my christmas cards in batches (generally because I leave them til the last minute) so I like to keep them unfussy so they don't take too long to make! I spent ages playing around with the layout and papers for this card and am still not sure about it - I'll see how I feel when I look at it again in the morning!
Supplies Used: Image - Penny Black "12 Days of Christmas", coloured with ProMarkers (Cool Grey 2 & 4, Warm Grey 2, Blossom, Gold, Canary) and glittered with Gold & Diamond Stickles, Papers - My Minds Eye, Pink Petticoat & Craftwork Cards Blox, Snowflake - Fiskars punch, Swarovski crystal.
Here is my entry for Week 63 of Cupcake Craft Challenges. This week is a sketch...
I haven't really made any changes to it as I liked it just the way it was! I used one of the Sugar Nellie Leanne Ellis stamps "Catch A Falling Star" - I got a few of these for my birthday back in August but this is the first chance I've had to use any of them! I've stamped a few up though ready to colour, so guess what I'll be using on my next few cards?!
Supplies Used: Image - Sugar Nellie Leanne Ellis "Catch A Falling Star", coloured with ProMarkers (Turquoise, Emerald, Lime Green, Yellow, Canary, Soft Lime, Lemon, Sandstone, Caramel, Cinnamon, Ivory, Blush, Pastel Beige) and glittered with Stickles (Diamond, Turquoise, Lime Green), Papers - Bo Bunny & Costco, Prima flowers, Making Memories brads, Dovecraft shimmer chalks, Dew Drop, Ribbon from Stash.
