Dies and Punches Challenge at Passion for Promarkers

Today's challenge starting today at Passion for Promarkers wants to see Dies and/or Punches being used which is kinda great as we all tend to use at least one right!  

I've used this cute digi image from Digi Stamp Boutique who can now be found under the Lili of the Valley umbrella. 

 I decided to make four cards for stash as it's quite a simple image to colour and I thought it would be good to show her in a few colourways.

For my dies I've used a stitched rectangle die  and a sunflower die from Marianne, details below, and the fence is a Tim Holtz die. Oh and the green papers used in the bottom card are Marianne too. The rest are Basic Grey.

Marianne Products Used

Basic Shapes Stitched Rectangle - CR1390

Sunflower Die - LR0361

Green Floral Paper from Country Style Pad - PK9130

The sentiment comes with the image!

And a bad group photo - say cheese!

Our prize for this week's  challenge is a set of Promarkers so come and join in the challenge!  If you'd like some inspiration hop on over here to the challenge blog to see the fab cards from my teamies.

Passion for Promarkers and my first Christmas card for 2014

Yay - I've started my Christmas cards for this year!  Normally start them about two months ago!  This is for our new challenge starting today over at a Passion for Promarkers with a great sketch from our fabulous Lou!.  We're being sponsored by the Digi Stamp Boutique and were lucky enough to be given some images to use and I've used this set called Cute Robin Chicklets which you can find here in the DSB store. 

As you can see, I've rotated the sketch so that I could get my cute little chicks all in a row.

The trees are cut with a Tim Holtz Pine die and the  icicle circle is a Memory Box die!  The sentiment comes with the Robin set!! Finally, the papers are from Craftwork Cards.

Hope you will come and play along with us this week at a Passion for Promarkers - can't wait to see your take on the sketch!
