A rose for you

I have been going mad lately colouring loads of images with my Promarkers, I think I am slowly getting better. So I thought its about time I started to use some of them up. This gorgeous Tilda image was given to me in a RAK from a blogging buddy and it is one of my favorites. I also managed to get my hands on the new Dandelion & Daisy paper pack which has got some lovely pastel pattern papers. So I made this card following the fab sketch over on Sketch Saturday.



Image Tilda with rose from Magnolia, papers are Picnic Patch from Docrafts, DCVW cardstock, Craftwork Cards Sentiment, paper roses from the Range and lace from my shop.

From your little Princess !!

This is my first Mothers Day card for this year following the fab sketch from the Sketch & Stash challenge blog. I love the layout this week its so simple but looks really good, which is good for me as I have a few of these mothers day cards to make. My new stash is this gorgeous image which I recieved today from a blogging buddy and I just had to colour her in with my new Promarkers, I am so loving these at the minute.



The image is Princess Anya from the Greeting Farm, coloured in with Promarkers from Silly Monkey Crafts with a touch of Glamour Dust added to her tiara & wand. Papers are Basic Grey Eva, crystal gems are Dovecraft and the ribbon is from the Range. The sentiment was computer generated.
