PASSION FOR PROMARKERS CHALLENGE #455: SPOTS/STRIPES

Hi There Promarker lovers!

We have a brand new challenge starting at Passion for Promarkers today, with a super prize up for grabs!!

Will be giving our winner a £15 store voucher!

To be eligible to win this awesome prize, all you need to do is use your Winsor & Newton (formerly Letraset) products (Promarkers, tria, flex, aqua or metallic), and follow the theme.

Jacky has chosen your theme this week: She'd like to see spots and/or stripes on your project.  

To give you al little inspiration to get going with your creation for the week, I've made a card using a sweet little Di's Digi Stamps image, called Kitty In A Teacup, which I've coloured with Promarkers.

I've used the following colours:

Kitty: Walnut, Henna, Cocoa, Cinnamon, Caramel, Sandstone, Oatmeal, Pale Pink on the cheeks

Teacups: Pink: Maroon, Rose Pink, Baby Pink

Purple: Amethyst, Orchid, Lilac

Green: Grass, Bright Green, Leaf Green, Apple

White: Ice Greys 1-3 & blender

Blue: True Blue, Azure, Sky Blue

Yellow: Sunflower, Lemon

My striped paper is from the DCWV Bouquet De Fleur stack, and the floral & dots paper used for the teapot is from the DCWV The Glitter stack.  The teapot was cut from the Everyday Pop Up Cards Cricut cartridge.  I used Ice Grey 1 and the Promarker blender on the edges to give it a bit of dimension.  

My flowers are Little Birdie.  The sentiment is Dovecraft.  The glittery heart is Jolee's.  I've added a wide white ribbon and bow and a few pink gems.

We're all looking forward to see your creativity come to life this week!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
