Dragonfly Dreams June challenge - Special occasion

We have a new challenge up at Dragonfly Dreams and the theme is "Special Occasion". 

Our sponsor this time is Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps and I used the image "A Mother is1" or my card!

I made thus card for my mother, since she's an amazing person and she liked it a lot, I just translated the words into swedish inside the card. =

The image is colored with promarkers in different colors and I added color to the border around by inking it with a stamp pad. =) The I cut it out and mounted it on a patterned paper and then added a green card base to that. 

So show us your favorite special occasions and I wish you all good luck in the challenge! =)

Smudgy Antics June challenge - Use no more than three colors

Time for my first post and I have used recycled material for this project! The twist this month is: Use no more than three colors! =)

It started with an empty strawberry box and packaging from dish brushes. =)

I used a lot of the Mer people from Smeared Ink and made an ocean scene, the paper with bubbles are from the dish brush packaging, the perfect setting for the Mer Queen and her attendants! =)
All the images are colored in green, blue and brown tones with my promarkers, also added glass pearls I bought at IKEA a long time ago as the ocean.
The swirls are made with Quikutz die and I used a dark green paper and a thicker paper with glitter on it.

Hope you will enjoy my project and join us in our new challenge! Remember that if you use an Smeared Ink image you are entered twice in the draw for winning a digital image and a rubber stamp!
