PFM Christmas in September

Can you believe it - almost the hottest day of the year and we're doing Christmas!!   But, when you're using cute images like this from Colour of Love, what's not to love!

Yes, our sponsors for this week's Christmas in September challenge over at Passion for Markers here are Colour of Love who are going to be offering the lucky winner three digi images!  

I've used Sleeping  Holiday  Fred Gnome which you can find here on the Colour of Love site. I've coloured him with Copics then teamed him up with a fab selection of Stampin Up, K&Co and My Mind's Eye papers.  The image comes with a black border so I've added black mats for the paper layers.  

The little sentiments are from Marianne Designs - Christmas Carols EC0198.

Don't forget to check out the makes of my DT pals here - super super!  And, don't forget to use Markers on your makes and tell us which ones you've used.

Passion for Markers - Things with Wings

Today's card is for our new challenge at Passion for Markers - Things With Wings is the challenge theme and we're being sponsored by the lovely Colour of Love who's image this is - Wild Gypsy Roses.

Now, your image could be a bird or butterfly or even a unicorn or a plane -  anything with wings.  But I wanted to use this gorgeous image so I've simply added a couple of Dragonfly die cuts - as long as there is something winged on your make - I've also used a feather die from Marianne Designs which is technically part of a wing!!  😅  My list of Marianne products is below - of course, I've coloured her with Copics and the papers are Magnolia Grove from Kaisercraft.

Passion for Markers Flowers

We have the best challenge starting today at Passion for Markers - Flowers - lovely theme as chosen by our lovely Marie!

I have to confess that I have had this Imagination Crafts Pansy stamp in my stash for years - and this is the first time out of the packet!  I love it though so glad I've shown it some love at last! The sentiment came with and I've matched it with these beautiful papers from Maya Road.

It seemed to suit  some distressing too - it gave a lovely aged feel to my card.

Our generous sponsor this week is Colour of Love digis and they are offering one lucky winner 3 digi  images of their choice from their online store.  

Some of the DT have worked with Colour of Love images for the challenge so check them out here then come and join in the challenge!
