A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #730 - Shaped Cards

Hello everyone wishing you all a lovely day !

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

This weeks challenge theme of 'Shaped Cards' has been chosen by Kitty for team 2 and being sponsored by Sheepski Designs

I chose to use one of the beautiful floral digital images called Dahlias for my card today....

I love these flowers when they are hot and spicy so that inspired my colour palette. This is a 5 x 7 portrait card with a cut out around the top of the flowers, I have handcut this but you can create the same effect partial die cutting too for physical stamps. 

The image was resized to suit the card, printed on a laser printer and then coloured with my Promarkers.  I also printed the sentiment and then applied teal Minc foil to add gorgeous shine to the sentiment.  

I started by fussy cutting out the top of the floral panel and then used this to trace the outline on to the card blank. 

The top section was then cut away from the card before adhering the coloured floral panel over the top.  I then chose a textured teal cardstock and adhered a panel of this to the inside of the card - I love the contrast of the pinks and orange of the flower with the teal - a perfect combination.

To finish off my design I have added a few pieces of teal confetti around the design.

I hope that you join in with the challenge as there is a prize from the sponsor for our lucky winner!

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 !
