Keep it Simple: Wonderland

This weeks challenge over at Keep it Simple is Wonderland. For my design team card I used the sketch from Sunday Sketch & Stamp and the Theme from A Pocket full of Posies.

Enjoy the weekend!

Multiple Challenge Card

(I am not on my own computer as it is in the shop being repaired so sorry for the image quality I have no way to edit it correctly, the image will be updated once I get my computer back)

Been having a play with the Letraset AquaMarkers that I won from Passion for ProMarkers, I must admit at first I thought these are rubbish, but I made the fatal mistake of trying to use them like ProMarkers. Once I used them as they are intended (after e-mailing and watching a video done by the lovely Kirsty Wiseman)I have changed my mind and decided they are actually quite fab, still not as good as ProMarkers which are 5 mins and your image is done, they take time and effort to use but have wonderful results.

So this card I am entering into a few challenges.
Just magnolia week 71
Stampin for the weekend challenge 46
Sunday sketch and stamp challenge 36
A pocket full of posies week 6

Image is brand new Japanese Magnolia, coloured with AquaMarkers: for the skin I used eggshell with rose blush for the cheeks, hair is lamp black, dress is storm blue and periwinkle and the flowers are rose blush. Papers from Papermania and ribbon from stash with tumbled glass distress ink edges. Sparkly parts are from a Sakura gel pen.

Sunday Sketch & Stamp 34 and Passion for Pro-Markers 65

This weeks Sunday Sketch & Stamp is a great sketch which I have combined with the Passion for Pro-Markers challenge ''Blue Christmas''.

Sunday Sketch & Stamp 32 and I Love ProMarkers 22

(sorry for the bad photo, its raining and their is no light at all today)

This weeks challenge over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp is a fab sketch which I have combined with the I Love ProMarkers challenge, distress. I didn't want to go over the top with distressing as I thought it looked a little odd so only the main image has its edges distressed with a neat little gadget from Heidi Swapp simply called edge distresser. Image is Magnolia coloured with ProMarkers, Ink is distress ink in Tea Dye and papers are the Once Upon a Time stack from DCWV, I love this stack and its almost gone :(

Winter Wonderland & Sunday Sketch & Stamp

This card is a combination of Winter Wonderland Challenge - Strawberry's & Cream and Sunday Sketch & Stamp providing a really simple and elegant sketch. I must say the whole strawberry & cream theme had me stumped for quite a while this morning and I was almost going to give up, but rummaging through my Christmas stamp box the idea sparked and here it is. Cream card, Fired Brick Distress Ink, Anna Griffin Holly Leaf stamp and a really really old collage stamp from Hero Arts. Ribbon I think is Papermania, again really old.
