Our 2nd Wedding Anniversary

This is the card I've made for my Soulmate, my best friend, my wonderful husband, Martin

Today we are celebrating 9 years together and on Monday we will have been married for 2 years!

The image is a DigiStamp called Bodacious Bev from Kenny K. I've coloured her in with my ProMarkers to look like me, lol. The stripey paper is Papermania Capsule Collection and everything else is from my stash.

Polly Penguin - Purple & Green

Oh yes its another Christmas card! This time I have used Polly Penguin again from Digistamp Boutique.

I've been going back trying to complete the weeks I've missed out on the Sundays With Santa Facebook Group. This is for Week 15: Purple and Green. Not normally my first choice for Christmas cards, but its turned out fab!

I've coloured the image in with my ProMarkers. I've added Glamour Dust to the snow and round the edge of the image.
The DP is old Papermania and everything else is from my stash.

Sundays With Santa - Recipe Card

Back to Christmas cards again! The way the weather is just now it feels like winter already!

This week on the Sundays With Santa Facebook Group the challenge was a recipe: (week 31) Snowflake + Ribbon + 3 buttons.
I've used Polly Penguin again from DigiStamp Boutique. You'll be seeing a lot of this cutie on here! lol

I've coloured her in with my ProMarkers. Not sure about the purple holly, but I was determined to stick to purple, pink and grey.
The snowflake is white card cut with a Marianne Creatable die, coloured with Promarkers and then covered with Glamour Dust (love that stuff!)

Christmas in July

Have you started your Christmas cards yet? I'm well on with mine thanks to a group I joined on Facebook back in January called Sundays With Santa. Every week there is a theme and you are encouraged to make a Christmas card using that theme. We are already on week 29, so by December I will have about 46 cards! There's no prize as such, but the satisfaction I will feel come November will be enough. I must confess though I've only completed 19 of the 29 weeks, but am determined to play catch up over the next couple of weeks!

Here is the card I have made for week 26 - Animals. Hopefully penguins can be classed as animals? The digi stamp was June's freebie from DigiStamp Boutique

I've coloured her in with my ProMarkers and added some Glamour Dust on the snow.

I am also entering this in the following challenges:
Passion for ProMarkers - animal crackers
DigiStamp Boutique - July customer competition
Sketch N Stash - sketch and stash (green ribbon & snowflake peeloffs I've had for years!)
Pollycraft Monday - Christmas in July

Truly Scrumptious

Here is my 2nd attempt using Promarkers and I'm chuffed (very pleased) with the results.
