Passion for promarkers challenge 196- To Die For!!


Stamp- sitting angel from WOJ.
Flexmarkers- Antique white, champagne, Nutmeg and Auburn.
Papers- Huge Funky Love word book from Funky Hand.

Hello peeps! I am back! a bit later than I thought as I have been for my bloods and then popped to see Scott for some cheering up the Lou brekkie!! I had to fast for one of my bloods ( I had to have bloods done for 13 different things.....that I can't even remember!!) and with mum going in today my tummy is doing somersaults so a bit of Lou and Scott time was most appreciated!!

Its challenge day over on the Passion for Promarkers challenge blog and this week’s challenge which has been set by Nic from Team 1 and she has chosen

 “to die for”

  Nic would like to see at least one die cut or punched item on your cards this week – simples!  Don’t forget you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers) and of course follow the theme.
Our generous sponsor this week is Whiff of Joy stamps and they are offering one lucky winner 1 stamp of their choice (must be in stock) from their online store.

I was in a sepia kinda mood so stamped up my gorgeous stamp with some Memento rich brown ink and got to work with my fav 4 colours of flex marker!

The dies part was super easy! I just used a whole lot from my Die-Namics Blueprints 2 set!!! I cut the oval, masked off the bottom and stamped just the head of my little angel on there. I coloured her up and added a little clear star sakura pen to her and then rubbed it all over her whilst it was still wet to give her a little angel-ly sparkle!!

Now, this stamp, OMG I love it!! the reason it lives with me now is kinda funny!! I spent 5 weeks looking for this very same stamp for my gorgeous best friend and was so happy when I found one on ebay for her that I almost pee'd my pants, Mo jumped up and down squeeling and we bought it and sent her it for a surprise. Then lo and behold someone put one up for sale once pops had gotten hers and I just had to buy her for myself, she is just so gorgeous! so Thank you to pops for my sitting angel obsession!! he he he he!!

The papers are my fav Funky Hand ones, they are from a wordbook download that has the A4 sheeets of the paper included too and then I just teamed that up with some kraft card and cream marbled paper.

So thats me for today peeps!! I promise just 2 posts for today!!!

Tiddly Inks challenge 109...Inspired by a movie/book!!

                                                    Cavy Love -for you from Tiddly Inks
                                                     (inspired by G-Force)

Morning Peeps!!!
Its tiddly tuesday which means its time for a new challenge over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog!

Create a project using a Movie and/or Book theme!   We can't wait to see what you create and make sure to tell us which book or movie inspired you!!!

Mo was a little lifesaver for me for this challenge as I just didn't know what movie to use until he sat watching G force on saturday morning and I snuggled up with him! after the movie I thought, hey thats a cute one and printed out the super cute little cavy!! (Here in the UK he would be a guinea pig).

The papers are all from my scraps folder! yey go me!!! and cut with my Blueprints 1 die set.

So I am not that with it this morning as I write. My mum is on her way to hospital right now to have her operation :( I love my mum so much and it is fair to say I am petrified. She is having a combined anterior disectomy and fusion and a posterior fusion all in one go, which means rough;y 4 and a half hours of surgery and a huge amount of recovery. Her lovely surgeon sent her a youtube computer video of the op and we watched it together a couple of weeks ago so in Lou language my mum will be drilled, screwed and pinned all in her spine :( if you have a little space in your prayers today please keep mum cosy in them.

I will be back in a little while with my PFP challenge card.
