PASSION FOR MARKERS CHALLENGE #643: 3 OR MORE LAYERS

Good Morning fellow crafters!

Our lovely Kitty has chosen our theme this week. She'd like you to use

3 OR MORE LAYERS

Up for grabs this week: 2 digi images from

I have used sweet Little Elephant on my card.

I have coloured the image with Copics, using the following colours:

Ellie's Grey: N5; N4; N3; N2; N1; N0

Eyebrows: N2; N1; N0

Ellie's Pink: R85; R83; R81; RV000; RV0000

Ellie's Nails: N10; N8; N6

Yellow: E15; Y17; Y13; Y11

Purple: V09; V04; V01; V000

Green: YG67; YG63; YG61

Water: BG07; BG05; BG02; BG01; BG000

Sky: BG000

I found that my colours bled a little - particularly the grey into the pink areas, so I've gone over the offending sections with a white pencil, and also used it to highlight edges.

I've used a Creative Dies wonky stitches circle die to cut out the image, a Creative Expressions die for the shaped panel, and a Joy! Crafts die for the heart banner.

My papers are from the Paper Boutique Beverley Eden paper pack, and the sentiment is from the Paper Boutique Springtime Meadows collection.

I've added a strip of cheesecloth behind the shaped panel, and a strip of lace behind the image panel. My flowers are I Am Roses, and I've also added a few Simple Stories enamel dots.

You can pop over to the blog to see what the rest of the team have created to inspire you this week.

Thanks for popping in to see mine!

Linda

Good Morning lovely crafters! If you haven't spotted it yet, we've made some exciting changes over at Passion for Promarkers! We are now PASSION FOR MARKERS, and welcome projects using any makes of markers, not just ProMarkers!

We have a super prize up for grabs this week:

will be giving away 2 digi images

Our theme, chosen by our lovely Natalie this week, is:

YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR COMBO

Any crafter knows that we don't ever really have only one favourite colour combo, right? One combo I love though, is

PINK & BROWN

To kick off my first project for our exciting, new look, new rule challenge, I've used Copics on my card.

I've used an adorable image from Star Jam Lines, called Friends, Girl With Kitty Read. After colouring the image, I cut it out with a blade.

The background of books was cut on my Cameo and I decided to let the row of books form the card base, so I welded two together. I also decided to rather colour the books with Copics, instead of cutting each of them in a different colour, so I cut them all out of white XPress It Blending Card and coloured them, adding in the details to match what would have been cut on the Cameo. The two sentiments are Hot Off The Press stamps.

I decided to leave the card at that, because 1) I didn't really think it needed anything else, and 2) I injured by back on the 24th of December, and had to colour this standing up, rather than sitting at my desk, which was hard enough. I didn't think I'd manage hauling my embellishments boxes around, to find little decorations too.
