The theme for that challenge is 

Inking up Stamps with markers

Well everybody here is my take on the Challenge:


I just love this challenge!!
Well I tried something different this time
 I used plain white card stock and make a A6  card.



I used the card with the fold on the top not the side
I used white pearl card and embossed it with Embossabilities Regal B 
and cut around to form the peaks
I used double sided tape and adhere it to the bottom of the main card


This is a lovely duo stamp set from SweetStamps.com
Wedding Doves 7 Scripture
I just had so much fun colouring it in
I stamped it with Memento and
I used Promarkers to colour it in
Promarker used:
Soft Peach, Oatmeal, 
Forest Green, Leaf Green,
Cool Grey 1, Ice Grey 1 
Pastel Blue

I took distressed ink Tim Holtz Dried Marigold i to go around the edges
I used a white pearl card and a die from Cheery Lynn Celtic French Flair
and cut a frame to frame my picture
I adhered my framed image to the top of my card overlapping the bottom 1st layer
I made 2 bow combinations with white pearl in the center 


The stamped the sentiment with Memento and took a 
Promarker and gave the word Love a blue shadow 
I used an oval die and distressed the edges with Tim Holtz Dried Marigold
I made 2 clusters of white flowers and added to the sides of the sentiment
I used a Maryanne Design die called Creatables Corners 143
and added to the top of the sentiment and added 2 pearls
I added pearls to the peaks at the bottom of the card
