Clean and Simple at the Passion for Promarkers Challenge

Good Morning my lovely crafty friends.
I hope you are all well and happy, I'm sending hugs to those in need of them.

Today is the start of a new Passion for Promarkers Challenge
This week I picked the theme of 
Clean and Simple
For this challenge we are sponsored by
Bugaboo stamps - $21.00 voucher 
and
Letraset - 6 pack of promarkers (neutrals)

For my card I have used a cute Wild Rose Studio stamp. The embossing is a Nellie Snellen folder, I have used the reverse side for a change.


Items Used:

Stamp - Wild Rose Studio Bella with Daisy
Coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers
Sentiment - Clearly Besotted Stamps
Nellie Snellen Embossing Folder Little Flowers
Memory Box Stitched Squares

If you take a look at the Passion for Promarkers Challenge, you will see the stunning creations made by the rest of the design team.

Thank you for taking the time to stop and look at my card today. I really appreciate your continued support and encouragement and love to read any comments you may wish to make.

I have a busy few days ahead helping my youngest daughter to get everything ready for her trip away. She going on a school charity trip to Romania, they will be running a special Summer school there. It's taken almost a year of fund raising but we got there in the end. I know it will be an amazing experience for her, I am so proud (and a little nervous!)

Bye for now
hugs

I love this and everything about it. That's a great look on the reverse embossing, isn't it? And that cute little elephant.. it's like he's got this shy, sheepish look and could almost be saying, 'Awwwww... shucks'! Cute as can be!

Planetsusie said...

Oooh Sue - this may be simple but it really is a beauty! That little image is just toooo cute and I love how you've used the reverse of the embossing folder - something I always forget to do and yet it looks so different.

Hugs to you and I do hope your daughter has a good trip.
