Mark's Finest Papers
Jan. 29th **COLOR**CHALLENGE 48 - Navy, Orange, Mint Green

Here's my sample for the challenge. Thanks for looking!

Wipe Off

Using a plastic photo frame



I made an "Erase Note Board" using a 5 x 7 plastic photo frame. It's really a great little item and makes a wonderful gift too. I stamped the flower and colored it using Copic markers and stamped the sentiment using a navy ink pad. After you get your layout all taped/glued just slip it into the frame. I took some velcro and wrapped a wipe off marker with it. Adding the other piece of velcro right to the frame to hold the marker in place, ready and handy!  A tissue wiped the marker right off, all set for a new note/message! 

I used MFP stamp set "Camillia".

Mark's Finest Papers Jan 22nd **COLOR**CHALLENGE 47 - Red, Pink, Green

Here's my sample for the challenge. Thanks for looking!


The two roses were colored using Copic markers and outlined using a sparkly gel pen. I added a wide, sheer ribbon, with a smaller satin ribbon and bow. A butterfly charm was hung on the bow. One rose was raised for effect and dimension. The shimmery, floral background paper was a perfect back drop for the roses. 

I used MFP stamp set "Roses".

Mark's Finest Papers Jan. 15th **COLOR**CHALLENGE 46 - Pink, Yellow, Green
Here's my sample for the challenge. Thanks for looking!


Ok, I went out of the box by making Yellow and Pink snowmen. But it's a fun card. I embossed the green background with snowflakes and tore white paper to make the snowy hills. I cut out the trees and snow people. The snowmen were colored with Copic markers and the trees were stamped in green. I applied some yellow and pink gems to tree top, buttons and heart then used Stickles to sparkle up the snow. My Glitter Pen was used to outline the snowmen for an added bit of shimmer too. I took my Copics and outlined the sentiment to bring in a bit more pink and yellow. 

I used MFP stamp set "Please, Snow".

Mark's Finest Papers Jan 8th **COLOR**CHALLENGE 45 - Black, Gray, Red
Here's my sample for the challenge. Thanks for looking!



My card stock choices were obviously black, red, and gray. I stamped a few snowflakes in Versamark and silver embossed them. I used a corner punch on the red card stock and slipped in the gray. I added the tag, with sentiment, and silver bow. A couple of red gems to the snowflakes and that finished the card!

I used MFP stamp set "Snowflakes".
