Three Of a Kind

Hi everyone. I hope everyone is well. We are nearly finished with the end of year accounts closure at the office, so hopefully I will not have to stay such long hours after work.. Mind you, I don't stay as long as the accountants! 

Anyway, onto my card, but this week it's not one of my best cards unfortunately.. and to make it worse, with the moving of the hour, I wasn't even able to get a good photo of my card! Well I just love the image, the gorgeous DP and all the flowers I put on my card. If you take a closer look you can see that there are three flowers of the same kind, which of course I put there as the theme for this week at

I ♥ Promarkers

is THREE OF A KIND

We have two sponsors this week

and

Hope you will join us this week.

No Designer Paper

Hello everyone. I hope everyone is well and fine. Sorry it's been some time since I visited but I've been so busy lately.. with work, training, working as Extra on the series Dovekeepers, and last week I've also been in Italy for the half marathon in Cremona! Well that's over now and I am pleased that I managed to do the race in 1.58, which is nine minutes less than my previous half marathon that I did in February!! It was so exciting, tiring of course, but it's such an achievement... and I'm already looking forward for my next race... can't stop running bwa ha ha ha :)

Anyway, so onto my DT card for the new challenge that started today at

I ♥ Promarkers, and the theme for this week is

NO DESIGNER PAPER

Having a twins card also to do this week, I decided to do embossing for the background so as to fit for this theme .. which I thought came out quite nice, and I had never thought about this before, so I was really pleased.

The embossing folder was a magazine freebie and the die-cut is from CC Designs, while the image, which of course I colored with my promarkers, is from Lili of the Valley.

Snowflakes

What a long day today! I took the day off to work as an Extra on the film series the Dovekeepers and then back home I had to pack up my bags as tomorrow I will be off to Italy to take part in a half marathon!!! I am so looking forward to this, even though it's a tough one!

Anyway, so better get onto my DT card for this week as I got to wake up so very early tomorrow and it's already so late.

This week the theme at

I ♥ Promarkers

is

SNOWFLAKES

I haven't yet started my Christmas cards so this was just the perfect theme!

For my card this week I used this sweet digi image from Whimsy Stamps, which of course I colored with my promarkers. Background DP is from a magazine but I sprayed it all with glitter spray and then I finished off the card with some lovely silvery ribbon, peel offs and christmas tree embellishment.

A Wedding Dance

I didn't manage to do my DT card this week, so I thought to share instead a wedding card I made for my friend who got married this weekend on Saturday. We have met at the fitness and dance classes we go to, so I thought these Forever Friends dancing teddies stamp would be just perfect for her.

I colored the image with my promarkers, the border die cut is from Crafty Sentiments, the hearts are Marianne Designs, while the leaves are a Martha Stewart punch. I finished off the card with some peel offs.

Winter Birthday

I'm so late with my DT Card this week.. a day late! I've been so busy again with loads of work and  training as I'm preparing myself for a half marathon this month in Italy.. but that's not all... Today I also started going to beginners Latin and Ballroom classes with my hubby.. So after doing an errand straight after work off we went to our first dancing class :) I never thought I would see this day as my hubby just doesn't like dancing but there we were learning the cha cha steps together he he :) Now I just hope that we would continue.

Anyway, better get onto my card and this week the theme for the challenge at 

I ♥ Promarkers 

is

WINTER BIRTHDAY

To tell you the truth I just didn't know what to do at first but then I found this gorgeous stamp that I had never used and thought it would be perfect for this theme. 

The pretty DP was a magazine freebie, die is MB and the border punch is MS. I recycled the beautiful suede like ribbon from an old shop bought card and I also colored the two pearls with my promarkers as I didn't have the color I wanted.
