Snowman Salute

-

This card uses a digi image from Mo's Digital Pencil, he is coloured with the following promarkers.
gold, cinnamon, bright orange, poppy, pastel blue, icicle and henna
I cut him out using my quikcutz round square cutter in my big shot and the same for the red layer.
The cream card was embossed using a sizzix mat, ribbon came from Germany when I visited the Christmas markets last year.  Finally I finished with some bling at the bottom - looking at the card now I think I will go and add some stickles as well for a little glitter effect.

This is for the following challenges

Mo's Digital Pencil - Emboss It
Cute Card Thursday  - Diamonds are forever
The Sweet Stop Sketch - Sketch I have used for inspiration
Creative Craft Challenge - Bling
ABC - Christmas - B - Bows or Boys

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!

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...
