Passion For Promarkers #64

This is my entry for this weeks challenge at PFP which is Music!
The image is a freebie one from Bugaboo Stamps.....coloured with my trusty PM's I used Crimson and Black for his hair......Cool Grey 2 & 4, Black, Gold, Pumpkin, Poppy and Spice for his hair and guitar.
The paper is a scrap that I had left and I cannot remember the make.
Thanks for having a look!

Sarah Kay Card....................

You may have spotted this card as my new header!  Love this image which is actually from a kids colouring site......coloured with my new toys....Prisma Artstix acquired from my sisters old room at my Mums house!  I have been wanting to get the pencils for ages but these will do me for now lol!
I have distressed all the edges and inked then with Walnut Stain.....flowers, buttons and leaves are all from my stash...and I had a go at making a pin with some little wooden beads.
Thanks for looking!

WOYWW #62........

 

Not another Wednesday already...that means I will be back at work next week Boo Hoo! Those 6 weeks went by far too quickly!
I will not waffle on too long as I am currently sipping a Lemsip, with my nose and eyes streaming!( who gets a cold in the middle of summer!!!!)
My new toys are sitting on the left of my desk...I found the artstix in my sisters old room at Mums when she was having a clear out...she obviously didn't want them if she left them, so they found their way to my cubbie!lol
There are a few Brownie badges that I have to sew glue (stitched the first couple she got on but they were a bugger to sew on!) on to Lucy's sash
Pink Spotty notebook is there for Julia lol...After reading her post on all her notebooks I went out and bought one and I am keeping notes of challenges I enter and goodies I have seen online!

Gone Fishing.....


Dug out the old watercolour pencils the other day to have a play and came up with this card.
Image is a lovely one from LOTV...paper I think is Rusty Pickle, I have edged all the papers with Walnut Stain. The piece of net is a washing tablet bag..coloured with my PM's... (Jane from Jane's Lovely Cards has used the tablet bags on a few of her creations..thanks for the inspiration Jane!)  I cut the little Gone Fishing tag from the paper and added some Glossy Accents, it has curled a wee bit cos the paper is thin but I kinda like it like that.
Thanks for looking!

Fairy Glen.....

Not much cardmaking going on in the cupboard these last few days....there is something I have been working on but I can't show it as the person it is intended for reads my blog!
Today we went for a walk to whats known locally here as The Fairy Glen....I think the path is part of the Great Glen Way and along the way is a part of forest that a lady has been decorating over the last few years.  It started very small and over the years people come and add things...all she asks for is a little donation which she gives to charity.  The girls made some ...what we in our house call sparkle catchers...basically twirly wire with beads and sparkly things threaded on...so we took them up to tie to one of the trees.(Stupid me tho never took a pic!)
It looks really dark but believe me it was a beautiful sunny day!!

Jude loved all the fairy houses!
It really is gorgeous...you feel like a kid again walking through it and looking for things! There are fairies hiding in the trees......fairy circles...teddies having a picnic! If anyone ever comes to Fort William let me know and I will give you directions!lol


So when we got home Jude wanted to make her own fairy garden........


She had all her shells from Newquay so she made one into a little pond..we put some tiny plants in...a chair from the dolls house and lots of sparkly glitter!

Anyway here is a shot of my desk....decided to get my watercolour pencils out again for a play...been colouring this lovely LOTV stamp, the netting is a laundry tablet bag that I am colouring with my PM's...gonna put in on the fishing themed card as a bit of net ( got the idea from Jane's Lovely Cards she has used them a few times on her cards) ...still got cards in the corner waiting for inserts!
The sun is actually shining here now for the first time in days so I am off to sit in the garden!
