A Passion for Markers BlogSpot Challenge #703 - Let's Celebrate

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all I hope that you have a lovely week ahead! 

I'm here today to let you know that a new challenge has started over on the Passion for Markers Blog.

This weeks challenge is being sponsored by All Dressed Up

The theme this week chosen by Karen for Team 2 is Let's Celebrate! and I chose to use the image Birthday Monkey

Today's card is a 5" x 7" and I decided to create an aperture for my monkey to hang in.

I've used a couple of stencils with distress inks to create a cloudy sky behind the monkey and a beautiful leafy stencil to represent the trees in the foreground.

I resized the monkey image to suit the size of my aperture which I created using a couple of oval dies and a co-ordinating green cardstock.  The image was coloured with my Promarkers (see below for colours) before fussy cutting out and adding into the aperture using foam tape for dimension.

The digital image includes a sentiment which I have added to the design but I have also stamped a couple of additional sentiments onto the panel and added some coordinating sequins.

Don't forget there will be a prize for the Winner of the challenge - there are more details over on the Passion for Markers blog.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project and don't forget to join in with the challenge over on the Passion for Markers blog

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
