I Love Promarkers #560 - Tropical Vibes - Sponsored by Polkadoodles

Hello everyone wishing you a wonderful Wednesday! 

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 Polkadoodles

Here is my inspiration card for the current blog challenge with the theme - Tropical Vibes, using the super cute Noodle Panda digital stamp from the Noodle Panda collection, this is Beach Inflatable Flamingo. 

I wanted to create a tropical beach scene for my cute panda so I have used one of the fabulous digi deals Beach Scene for my background. 

I started by resizing this to fit a larger 5" x 7" card blank and added a digital sentiment from the Winnie Starfish Sandcastles collection at the bottom left corner.

I printed out the panel onto alcohol friendly card stock and carefully blended distress inks across this to create my waves, sandy beach and the sky, using a lighter hand across the images themselves. 

Next I used promarkers to colour the images - this works really well as long as you choose colours that will disguise the distress ink below.

I used a white gelly roll pen to create foam on the edges of the waves I then resized Noodle, making her larger to fit at the bottom of the card, this helps to give perspective to the design as she's standing at the front of the card.

I assembled the card, matting the background onto a panel of sky blue card and then added Noodle at the bottom right corner with foam tape for extra dimension. 

The finishing touches were some highlights around the design with a white pen and glossy accents to her sunglasses.


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

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
