Home is where the heart is

-

This uses a digi image from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps
I cut the aperture in the card using my new X-cut dies
This has been cut into two tone card the outside is purple the inside is lilic
(colours do not show up very well in this light)
Then simply coloured the image with my flex and pro markers
Mounted it as a complete sheet
Quite please with the result as the aperture matches the shape of the clouds

This card is for the following challenges

(Lady Antebellums - Home is where the heart is)

Thanks for Looking

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!

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...
