A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #717 - Winter

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all ! I hope your week is going well....so all the olives have been picked and pressed and we are now onto pruning the trees.

It's definitely a lot easier this year as the trees are in a better shape and there's not as much dead wood to remove - we've got lots of lovely wood ready too for our log burner, to keep us warm once Winter sets in although at the moment its still t-shirts whilst we are working outside.

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

This weeks challenge is being sponsored by Colour of Love

The theme this week chosen by Kitty for Team 2 is - Winter

I chose to use a beautiful digital image called Candle Witch, which is actually in the Autumn/Halloween section of the shop but I choose to colour her in some lovely wintery colours and making her super sparkly and am really pleased with how she looks. 

I resized the image for a larger 5" x 7" card, printed her out and coloured her in using my promarkers, limiting my colours for this amazing image.

Once completed I've layered her up on some super sparkly blue glitter card, designer paper and I also die cut the large Winter word from glitter card to add to the bottom.

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 used a brick stencil with a little distress ink to add a little detail behind the witch and also blended some yellow distress ink around the candles to give a glowing effect. 

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 !
