Dotties World Sunday challenge

The challenge over at Dotties World this week is set by Louise and she has asked that we do a shaped card, it can be any shape except the usual square or rectangle.

So having been doing some gardening this morning I decided to do my card along that theme.

The whole card is coloured with Pro markers, not a piece of paper in sight! This must be the only card I have done in years that doesn't have any paper on.

Colour themed cards

After doing the pink and brown cards for the Dotties World challenge the other day, I thought I'd do some more sets of the same colours.
I've used Holly and Maddison images from Charmed cards and crafts I ummed and arred about getting these images as I wasn't sure I'd use them! Well, how wrong was I, lol

The first colours I used were blue and green, and as a person who hates green it was surprisingly easy.

The papers are DCWV glitter stack. And the images are coloured using Pro markers

Dotties World Sunday challenge

The challenge over at Dotties World this week is to take inspiration from this photo of cupcakes

I've done a card inspired by the colours

As usual I've used my promarkers to colour the image which is from the Holly and Maddison collection available at Charmed cards and crafts

The papers are Basic Grey, and the swirl is a gift from Incy68 from DC. I've also used some Anitas 3D clear gloss on the hat and boots.
I loved using these colours so much I did another 2 cards along the same theme.

Sugar Nellie cards

Here are some Sugar Nellie cards

This image is Going for a spin

Again I've used Promarkers and DCWV papers. The swirls were a gift from a DC member Incy68. Thanks ever so much for these Kay, they've given me some great inspiration. I think I need to get this Sizzix die! lol.

This image is Spring has sprung

Again I've used Promarkers and DCWV papers. I seem to have built up a huge stash of these papers, I think they must be breeding as I haven't bought all these surely! lol

All the same stuff used as above and a felt ribbon from Papermania
