Promarker challenge 57
Promarker Challenge 57.
The challenge this week is set by Debs, who wants to see your favorite things, a real toughie.. it took a while to find something a bit different from the norm, but as one of my favorite things is Lladro porcelain. I decided to go with this, so I hope it applies. The Lladro figurines of Giesha girl and the Cranes are my most favorite pieces. I have a set of cranes, and if ever I win the lottery I will buy the Geisha girl.....too Until then I will covet it from a shop window.

Embelishment.....Japanese hair ornament, was made by stamping out two different sentiment coins,(Ive no idea where these stamps are from as they have been in my stash for years) coloured them, Then I made paper beads and glued them to cocktail sticks.
Bling from stash

Promarker Challenge 55
Morning all
Its a dull morning here, but no rain so Ive had to water the baskets and tubs... Im off to see my youngest 3 Grandsons this afternoon, which I will enjoy.
Passion for Promarker challenge 55
Has been sent by Anja, and the theme is Pink.
I have used all shades of pink but Im not too sure if Ive achieved what I wanted. (lol) I guess we all suffer self doubt... sometimes, I wanted a real Hindu feel, but was limited to the backing papers I have. In the end I settled for Papermania, Pink capsule collection. I cut four strips of 1/4 in card, to form the half frame.
The image is Aashi wearing a Sari from Mo Manning Coloured with Promarkers,
Skin.................Dusky pink, and Cinnamon
Sari.................Cerise, Baby pink
Elephan..............Ice grey 2, Hot pink
Hair................ Ice grey 2 and Black

Sir Stampalot monthly challenge
I felt right at home with this challenge, as I love my punches, and don't use them as much as I used too. I'm sorry the photo isn't very clear.. me n camera's don't mix.
The challenge for June
The Sirstampalot challenge this month was Punches, I decided to do a wedding card and box
The box
I cut out a large oval and glued it to the centre of the box, then cut 1/4 inch strips to form the trellis, and punched out the hearts to decorate the edge of the oval. Made the flowers from various punches and placed them around the box.
The card
I punched the edges two pieces of cream pearlised paper, using a Martha Stewart edge punch. Added the ribbon down the side, and stamped the sentiment, from SU

Promarker challenge 54
Hi all
Its a beautiful day so I hope your'e enjoying the sun. We have travellers on the green oposite my house, but I don't think they will be there long, at least there are only 4 vans there this time n not seventeen like last year. They don't bother anybody though, but that might have something to do with the fact there is a Policewoman lives next door but one(lol)
