Friday sketchers

Here is another new stamp from Whiff of joy, and i have used this fab sketch from Friday sketchers xxxx

The reason i thought to give you my sticky scissor tip the other day was because i had just got some new stamps and was mounted them on some cling stuff, 4 new stamps from the whiff of joy city girl set yum yum lol
She looks like she is having a fab time, perals and gem coloured with a promarker to match.

A top tip for you!!

Now do say i never give you anything lol, but do you ever get sticky scissors?
now do not go and buy all the fancy stuff to remove it, just put some nail varnish remover on some kitchen roll and slide it up and down the blades and hey presto clean scissors.
:0)

These papers are By Basic grey and are part of a crimbo pack......but these are fine for everyday cards as not all the papers have Christmas stuff on them.
The flowers were white but i coloured them with my promarkers to match the girls top, you will notice i do that a lot lol
Hugs for now

Challenge #2

Welcome to this weeks challenge, well done to Louise who won last weeks challenge sponsored by the lovely Joanna Sheen.
My card is made using a super cute Penny Black image coloured as always with my promarkers....i have chalked around the edges as well.
The background paper is from My Minds Eye...............a current favourite of mine, this is a very bright card for me some of you may have noticed i like the darker aged looking papers :0)
but that is what these challenge are about, trying something new.

And here's the sketch for this week. This weeks theme is 'Spring' please interpret this however you wish. Please remember, to be entered into the prize draw, you must use ProMarkers and follow the sketch and theme and also provide a link back to us from your blog.

Simple cards

Some simple cards for my card box at work, made about 3 of each of these.
