mingles

monthly mingle swaps on magnolia-licious


june - summer fun- to ellen


i had lots of fun putting this together, might not be everyones cup of tea but its a fun card








may - april showers/may flowers - to sam

it's raining.....

joined the 'raining' swap on magnolia-licious, it runs for 6 months and you have to send out 4 cards a month
i joined this thinking it would give me the much needed practice on using markers and blending also hope to be inspired by the cards when its my turn to be rained on :)
these cards will already be on here somewhere as i am using up ones already in 'the box'



june - laurel













june - kelly












june - pam







june - caroline

berry red & royal blue

still trying to get the blending right but don't think i am having
much luck
love these two colours but again struggled with the backing papers
good old cuttlebug to the rescue again

will be using this for a music theme swap card

cinnamon & pumpkin

this weeks passion for promarkers challenge
found this one a bit hard as i could not find any suitable backing paper

so this ended up being a 'mans' sort of card with the browns

the front was cut down to show the back inside paper, this also has a nestie tag for adding the greeting
on the inside of the smaller front is matching orange/brown cbug
strip

hubby took this for his brothers birthday

apple & pastel pink

just getting into promarkers so really chuffed about the new chall blog
looking forward to building up my markers and learning to use them to best advantage

Week 51

penny black this week is a sketch
i made the card up then had to find an image to go in the
middle of the spirelli......
maybe i should have checked at the start as i ended up
taking part of an image as i needed a weeny teeeny tiny one
3d the yellow balloon
really pleased with the result, i think its such a sweet card

used for a birthday
