Hot Colours at I ❤️ ProMarkers

Good Morning all crafters out there
It’s Wednedsay and time for a new challenge at
I ❤️ ProMarkers
First of all I’d like to say congratulations to the Winner and the Top 3
This weeks theme is to use
Hot Colours
- a rather tough one for me, as I most work in «paler shades», but I actually found it quite fun to use bold and bright colours 😊

I used DPs from Basic Grey and My Minds Eye on a cardbase of Bazzill Kraft cardstock. For the front of the card I cut the paper from MME into narrow strips. Then I inked the edges on them and glued them down to the BGpaper (can you imagine what my fingers looked like after inking all those tiny paperstrips!)
I used Spellbinders Scalloped circles Large to cut out the image ande the greetingpanels inside.
Around the image I put on some Shabby White- and Aged Copper Embossing Enamel.
I didn’t think I had any «Hot Coloured» flowers, but looking through my stash I found lots of them (and lots of forgotten stash… fun)
On the edge Of the cardfront I used Martha Stewarts Floral Wine deep edge punch. Looking closely you can see the pearls I put into the center of the Florals.

The stamped greeting (Norsk Stempelblad) inside is embossed with copperpowder:

Same papers on all sides of the card: 

ProMarkers used to colour the image:
Skin: Ivory, Dusky Pink, Tan, Blush
Hair: Gold, Walnut, Terracotta
Eyes: Walnut
Shirt: Spice, Honeycomb
- and a little touch of Blender

  3. This is simply gorgeous! I love the little flowers! I'm sure your fingers were quite inky after inking all of those strips of paper, but the effect was so worth it! Thanks for playing in Squigglefly's challenge this week!

  10. I'm not sure why but this site is loading incredibly slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I'll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
