I love Promarkers #545 Wings or Tails Sponsored by Sheepski Designs

Hello everyone wishing you a wonderful Wednesday! I hope that you are having a lovely week. 

I'm on my blog today for the new bi-weekly I Love Promarkers blog challenge , it would be wonderful if you joined us over there if you love to colour with alcohol markers and don't forget there are prizes up for grabs.  


You can find all of the rules and details for the challenge over on the blog. 



This challenge is being sponsored by SheepSki Designs 





Here is my inspiration card for the current blog challenge with the theme - Wings or Tails, using the wonderful digital stamp called Hanging Around, this is definitely one of our kitties. 

Foxy is our youngest ginger tabby and he sadly loves chasing little birds so this is very appropriate, fortunately for the birds he's not very good climbing trees as a result of an injured hip.



I wanted to make an A6 popup frame card to create a little landscape tree scene for todays image.

For the pop up element I have used a piece of chocolate brown measuring 8 3/4 " x 4 1/4" cardstock , scoring this along the long edge at 1/2", 1 & 1 1/2" on both ends.

There is a great tutorial on YouTube tutorial by Jennifer McGuire, showing how to make these make a popup up frame cards.   If you haven't seen the video here is the link.

The aperture in the frame part of the card was cut using a fancy corner die and I added some leafy pattern paper to the base of the card before adding my popup frame. 


Once my base card was created it was time for some inky fun!  

I printed out the cat image onto alcohol friendly card stock before colouring with my promarkers and fussy cutting out.

I then adhered this to my popup frame attaching the trunk of the tree to the outside of the frame and securing the kitty on to a thin strip of acetate which is secured into the popup mechanisms on either side of the frame.

I also decided to add a few die cut leaves to the frame to continue the scene with a few coordinating sequins adhered  onto the background panel. 

The sentiment was hand cut and then mounted at the bottom and I added a little glossy accents to the kitties eyes to finish off today's design.


I really hope that you like 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 I Love Markers blog
