I ♥ ProMarkers ... and Promarkers ♥ Me - Woo Hoo!


I was really thrilled and not a little surprised this last week, to receive an email from the lovely Karen at I ♥ ProMarkers, asking me whether I would like to join the  I ♥ ProMarkers DT. Woo hoo!! Well I love my Promarkers (and Flexmarkers!!) so I had to think about it for all of about 3 seconds lol!!

So here I am with my first I ♥ ProMarkers DT card for challenge #94. The rest of the team create wonderful creations every week so there was no pressure lol!! ... but I have done my best :-)


This week's theme is

Snowmen & Snowflakes

... and we are sponsored by Robyn's Fetish, who gave the DT some snowmen images to play with. This gave me my first challenge of the new DT as I don't normally work with digis, but it was easier than I thought, and this little guy "Carl the Snowman" was easy to colour and also quite adorable!


Stamps: Robyn's Fetish digi "Carl The Snowman"; Whimsy ticket stamp;
Media: Promarkers and Flexmarkers; glamour dust on scarf and mittens;
Paper: unknown offcut from my stash;
Supplies: sparkly gems from The Hobby House; peel off greeting and sparkly ribbon from my stash;
Tools: large circle and lacy circle nestabilities; Cuttlebug "Ice Crystal" die; Martha Stewart "Aspen Snowflake" punch; Crafts Too "Snowflakes" embossing folder.


Challenges:
Sundays With Crissy #23 - Christmas Card Using Non-Traditional Colours
Sweet Stampin' - Punches & Dies
Craft your Days Away #34 - Buttons or Bows
Dutch Dare #140 - Recipe
(I used ribbon, image, patttterned papers, layers and rhinestones!)
The Ribbon Reel #16 - Anything Goes
The Pink Elephant #127 - Photo Inspiration




Looking forward to being on the I ♥ ProMarkers DT and to seeing your creations this week :-)
