This card uses a wonderful image and sentiment from Bugaboo
I have coloured her using my promarkers
Cut the image and sentiment using my spellbinder card creator dies
I then used the dies as stencils and chalked to colour the edges
Finally the card was finished with some twine and a wooden flower

This card is for the following challenges

Simon Says - Anything goes with twine or string
Curtain Call - Cuppa Cocoa
Cas-ual Friday - CAS with element of the edge

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Sorry not a card but I have been working on this, hopefully some cards soon.

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...
