Drumming Teddy - Pink Gem Designs - Winter Wonderland DT

Good morning and welcome to my new follower Lianna...... wooooow I reached 200, must sort out a give away to celebrate. (Watch this space). Today is the start of a new challenge at Winter Wonderland where our theme is 'For A Child'. A nice easy one, I got an early birthday card made for my great, great nephew  :), and you can see what his name is .
I have used a Pink Gem image 'Drumming Teddy' who is just too cute.


He is fussy cut and mounted onto paper from LOTV. The name and age are cut using Desire Dies. I added glossy accents to his hat, eyes and buttons, but have to admit it looks weird on his hat in the photos. The only other addition was some card candy.


He is coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and some Gold metallic marker on his hat, cuffs and drum.


The inside does match the front and his hat looks a little better on here. I also double cut the letters to give a gold highlight.


We are being sponsored this week by Pink Gem Designs, who are offering 2 digi's of the winners choice from their designs


The other Snowflakes ladies have made some beautiful cards for your inspiration this week, and I hope you will take the time to visit their blogs.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Baby with Reindeer - Pink Gem Designs - Winter Wonderland DT


Oh my goodness..... I forgot to post this this morning, and had it made for 3 weeks.... tsk.... (slaps own hand).
Today is the start of a new challenge at Winter Wonderland where our theme this week is 'Boys Will Be Boys' and I couldn't resist using the gorgeous digi 'Baby with Reindeer' from our sponsor this week who is Janet at Pink Gem Designs, it will be for my great, great nephew.



He is cut using SB labels 6 with a faux nestie behind him.  The snowflakes are one of the new corner dies from Wild Rose Studio's, as you can see 4 make a great frame. The sentiment is computer generated and mounted onto a SB lacey circle.


He is coloured using Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Tria markers with  some stickles on the bell on his collar.  I added a little distress ink around the edges.


So the very generous Janet at Pink Gems is offering 2 digi's of your choice to the winner this week.


My fabulous  teamies have made some wonderful cards for your inspiration this week I hope you will pop over and see them. Don't forget this is a christmas blog so we need to see Christmas themed cards from you.

Nurse - Sassy Studio Designs - Passion for Promarkers DT

Hi everyone, a little late with my post today. I ricked my neck yesterday as someone had parked too close to my car and I just managed to get in, but twisted my neck in doing so.  Huge apologies to Denise and Gina for my late entry for the Passion for Promarkers DT.
So to get to today's card where our theme chosen by the lovely Lisa. is 'Button it' (just add a button somewhere). I have used that ever so sexy nurse from Sassy Studio Designs..... believe me I have been on the wards all week and haven't seen one to match her ;)

She is straight cut and mounted on a Sue Wilson Granada Die from Creative Expressions.  The backing paper is from Docrafts and the sentiment was computer generated. Buttons from my stash.


She is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Tria markers. I added Glossy accents to her lips, shoes and that lethal looking syringe.

We are being sponsored this week by Sassy Studio Designs who are offering the luck winner 4 digital images of their choice, and they do have some amazing ones.

Steampunk Owl - Pink Gem Designs


Good morning everyone, something completely different from me today, my attempt at Steampunk !!!!!
Not my style at all but when I saw this cute image from Pink Gem Designs I decided to have a try. This is for the latest challenge over at Passion for Promarkers where this weeks theme chosen by Jen is 'Cut it Out'.


As the challenge says I cut him out. I created my backing sheet using a cogs mask and blue mica powder spritzed onto black. I added various cogs from SB sprightly sprockets an added a couple of charms. I distressed the cogs a little and added more promarker to some of them. The sentiment is computer generated and I also added a few coloured card Kandy.


 He is of course coloured with Promarkers, Flexmarkers and a little Prisma Pencil. I also added glossy accents to his eyes.


The glossy accents and distressing show a little more on this one.

We are sponsored this week by 'Pink Gem Designs' who are offering 4 images of the winners choice from their shop


  Don’t forget you must use your Letrasetproducts (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers) and of course follow the theme.  I hope you will pop over and see the fab cards the other DT members have made this week

I am entering the following challenges:-

Carol Singing Cat - Pink Gem Designs



Hello again from hopefully a hot and sunny Egypt. If this is scheduled correctly I am more than half way through my holiday :(


My card today features 'Carol singing Cat' an image by Pink Gem Designs who are sponsor this week at Passion for Promarkers challenge 'Pets'.
She is cut with an SB Grand Oval with a Grand decorative oval backing her. The backing paper is one I made using Craft Artist 2 Pro. Border strip is a MS punch, SB poinsettia flower and Whimsy corner. Sentiment is from LOTV. Gems from my stash.


She is of course coloured with Promarkers and I added glamour dust around her and to the border and corner. 


I added Stormy Sky distress ink around her and Flowersoft polar white to the snow she is standing on. On the flower I used Picket Fence DI and added a little glamour dust.


The inside reflects the front.

I do hope you will check out the other DT members inspirational cards and enter to win 4 digital images of your choice from Pink Gem Designs.  But of course you do have to use Promarkers, Flexmarkers, Aquamarkers to enter.
