So today I am going to my first Promarker class. I have been having a play with them and find them very easy to use but am looking forward to getting some tips.

Enjoy the sunshine,

I thought I would share this picture of Whisky who is currently with his Foster Parents as we can not have him in the apartment we are renting. My surrogate parents Anne & Barry are looking after him and as you can see they have a motor home and go all over the UK in it. This is Sirs seat when he is away!!!!
Looks like he is enjoying his travels.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge week 102


Well its been a while since I entered a challenge. This weeks challenge on Penny Black Saturday Challenge is Lots of Dots. I have used the Penny Black image form the 'Hugs' Transparent set, Papermania 'Sweet Nothings' paper pad. I have coloured the image using my new Promarkers and enhanced the flowers with some glitter flock. Ribbon, dots and gems from stash.

Feeling happier today!

Well I am just back after a visit to the craft shop. The staff were lovely and very helpful. I am now booked into their Promarker Saturday club and also Card Making club. So i had to buy 6 Promarkers to start off my collection. I lay the blame entirely at my former next door neighbour but a great friend who showed me her images which she had coloured using them. I can not wait til my first class which is on the 3rd June.
I am off now to have a little play with those new pens!!!!!!

Enjoy the sunshine
