A Passion for Markers Blog Spot Challenge #805 - For a boy - Sponsored by RAM Stamps

Hello and a happy Tuesday to you all ! I hope you are all well and the week has started well. 

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 RAM stamps and our theme of 'For a Boy' this week was chosen for team 2 by Me ... 





I chose to use a really fun called Stacked Frogs, they look like they are having so much fun, perfect for a card for a little boy


I have created a simple DL card for today, resizing the image to suit before printing onto alcohol friendly card stock and then colouring with my Promarkers.




I decided to go for a rainbow of frogs, they do come in loads of fabulous colours after all...not just green !

Once the frogs had been coloured I used a blue distress ink to create a cloudy sky and added foil at the bottom for the ripples of water.  I used a quickie glue pen to create the water ripples.

Next I used a frame die to cut out the panel before layering onto the card blank, adding foam tape to the centre panel for dimension.

The sentiment was stamped using blue ink and finally I added glossy accents to the frogs eyes.

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 ๐Ÿ‘‹ 


Enjoy the rest of your day !

Love and Kisses with Pink Gem Designs

Hello everyone - wishing you a wonderful Thursday....I hope you are all enjoying the week so far....

I'm back on my blog today to share a sweet card made for Pink Gem Designs using a digital stamp from the Love Frogs set which is a set of 11 digital stamps, 6 cute frogs, a lily pad, 2 sentiments a dragonfly and some bull rushes - its an amazing set and very versatile.


For my card I've used the black line art digital so I can colour my image, but you can also get a pre-coloured set of stamps and there are some lovely coordinating digital papers too.

I printed the Love & Kisses sentiment onto my background panel to start with and then used distress inks and a cloud stencil to create the sky.  A different distress ink was blended over the bottom of the panel for the pond and I've add some watery waves using another stencil and added some ripples using a fine liner pen. I've used a red fine liner pen to colour in the sentiment for an extra splash of colour and to tie in with the heart and the rose.

The frog was coloured using my promarkers (see below for colours) before fussy cutting this out and mounting on my card.

I really hope that you have enjoyed my card today and will drop by again to see my next project.
