Paper piecing @ I Love Promarkers

 We have a new challenge over at I Love Promarkers, with the option of paper piecing. Don't forget we do need to see your colouring on the image too! We are sponsored by IKEsART digis  for this challenge and I have used Quirky Parrot.

I paper pieced the head and tail and coloured the beak, eyes, feet and feathers with promarkers. I fussy cut the image and then layered onto a heat embossed flower background and stamped the sentiment in brown.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

I am also working on this Wrendale Designs Llama at the moment:

Colourful Thank You

 We have a new challenge starting today at I Love Promarkers - the first one for 2021!! Welcome back everyone, hope you all had a good Christmas, whatever you managed to do. Hope some of you got to see some of your loved ones, even if it wasn't quite how you imagined it!

Our first challenge of 2021 is an easy Anything Goes challenge - just remember to use those promarkers :)

We are sponsored by the delightful  IKEsART digis, and I have used Blue Tit.

I used Cool Grey 5, Ice Grey 4, Warm Grey 4, Indigo Blue, April Shower, Blue Sky, Olive Green, Lime Green, Summer Sun, Sandstone, Morning Mist, Soft Peach, Ruby and Maroon.

I used M&C stitched square nesting dies from The Works t die cut both the image and the patterned paper behind this, which is a double sided paper from my stash. The off cut is the piece placed along th bottom for the easel stand.

I made an easel card out of a 6x4 blank and added some paper out of my scrap box in bright colours. I added the image panel off to one side so that the bright paper could be seen. I then used peel-off markers to colour the letters before spelling out 'thank you' and adding a flower.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Snow White @ I Love Promarkers

Welcome to another Wednesday and a new challenge at I Love Promarkers. Ok the optional theme this time is actually one for the girls, and we are sponsored by IkesArt. I have used  Snow White  for my card.

I used a patterned base card, coloured the image with Promarkers before fussy cutting and then added several sentiments from my stash. Nice and easy.

I also have a little recipe to share with you for Italian-style Pork Chops.

Firstly, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan/skillet. Add the pork chops in a single layer and fry for 5 minutes, until browned. Remove from the pan.

 Finely chop 1 onion and fry until softened and browned.

 Crush 2 garlic cloves and add to the pan with 1tsp fresh chopped Rosemary.

Add the zest of one lemon and 150ml Chicken stock to the pan and allow to simmer for 10 minutes.

 Add the pork chops back to the pan, then add a can of chopped tomatoes and cook until heated through and the chops are fully cooked (about 10-20 minutes).

 Dish up and enjoy!

Promarkers - Icicle, Polar Blue, Marine, Ivory, Gold, Burnt Sienna, Wild Cranberry, Ice Grey 4.

Deaths portrait

Hiya, I have a new DT creaton for you today, for our I Love Promarkers challenge - the optional twist is to use a ribbon (mine is a bow).

I have made a picture for Halloween using this times progressive challenge image from our sponsor IkesArt, which can be found here.

I coloured the image with the following promarkers - Black, Cool Grey 3, Warm Grey 4 + 5, Gold, Canary and Cinnamon.

I then used a Nellie Snellin nesting die to cut the image, border and patterned paper panels.

The background was done using Sheen Douglas embossing folder inked in black, over red card.

Once framed I added the bow to the front.

I would like to enter this creation into the following challenges:

Cute little witch

Hi there,

I have a halloween themed creation that could be used for a birthday to share with you all today:

The image is from the current IkesArt progressive challenge. (I do have a project with the second image, but you will have to wait for that one). I coloured her using Papermania glitter markers and watercolour markers. I placed her behind the aperture in an aperture card, and then added the sentiment above, added liquid pearls. Finally I added two die-cut pumpkins (spellbinders).
