Passion for Promarkers #49 - Sketch & Handmade Flowers

Where oh where does the time go? the weekend passed quicker than the speed of light!
As it's Tuesday morning, we've another new challenge for you over at Passion for Promarkers - this week Michele has given us a super sketch to work from as well as the additional item - handmade flowers, which is one of Michele's specialities.

I decided to turn Michele's sketch on it's side so that the oblong of the image worked a bit better. I made this card for a bloggy buddy and the MIL of Sarah, one of my teamies at PfP - the very talented Fiona who is under the weather at the moment and in hospital. So, get well soon Fi!!

Image: Poorly Suzy, from Digistamp Boutique: coloured with promarkers: Sunkissed Pink and Blush for her skin; Pastel Yellow, Mustard and Spice for her hair; Cool Aqua, Duck Egg, Warm Grey 3, Soft Peach, Peach and Mango for the bedding, vase and flowers

The papers are all Kaisercraft Peachy Keen from Angel Crafts, the peach cardstock is core'dinations, the greeting is a Hero Arts stamp and the wee pearls are from Hobbycraft. The handmade flowers were punched using 2 EK Success retro flower punches and embossed on the reverse.

Here's poor wee Suzy's close-up...

So, are you up for the challenge? need a little more inspiration? then go have a look at the other DT creations for more ideas of how to make handmade flowers.
The prize this week is a pack of 5 Promarkers from the home of promarkers themselves
