Dotties World Sunday Challenge - 15th March

Sunday Challenge - Sketch
Good morning boys and girls, Karen here (are there any boys out there? Let yourself be known).
The Sunday challenge today is set by me, and I have created a sketch for you to follow. I am going to offer a little prize to one lucky participant this week, I will pick the winner randomly next Sunday.
The scalloped edge merely depict some sort of fancy edge. It doesn't have to be scallops but you MUST provide a fancy edge of some description, this is not an element that can be changed. You must of course include one of our downloads too.
For my card I used my craft robo to cut the aperture out of the blue card stock, then again the craft robo was used to cut the frame and the circles and heart.
I then stuck a piece of acetate over the aperture and put the frame over to hide the glue
I used the Front and Back image of Dottie that has been pre-coloured
I cannot remember where the papers came from and the text was done in word
The top edge being scalloped was by mistake as I forgot to take the blade out of my paper trimmer - but I quite like it! lol

Lovely card! Oh the times I've forgotten about swapping the blade. It's okay until you used the perforations instead of cutting! LOL!

Love the idea of using the actate. xx

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Sorry not a card but I have been working on this, hopefully some cards soon. Anyone who know me knows I am a very organised crafter My promarkers have been driving me mad as they were in a number of different containers and I never seem to pick up the right container, so I decided I needed to sort it This is a CD storage box from Tescos it comes with 100 sleeves to put CD in You can find it HERE  but there are many others out there Being sad I had some Pro markers in my handbag so was able to try them in the shop for size! Each sleeve holds seven promakers and each section comfortable hold 10 sleeves or eleven with a little bit of a squeeze As I said I like things very organised or as my DH says OCD! I used some adhesive labels in my Craft Robo and cut out the little circles this way they were still attached to the backing sheet I could colour them and then peel them off with my poky tool and stick to the ends of the pens I also have put a coloured circle on the bar of ...

Promarker Storage Update

As some of you know I tend to be a little bit of an OCD crafter - I like everything to have a place and when I have finished using it that is where it goes. Now when I first started collecting Promarkers I used a travel CD case to transport them and it has worked really well you can see the original  HERE . I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
