Okay first things first and that is to catch everyone up on the blog giveaway.  First of all I noticed issues with the way I had scheduled Mr. Linky, so please if you entered earlier please check to ensure your name is still there.  I will give you a link below or just click on the blog candy image on my blog. 

Additionally, once you add your name to the link you will not need to do it again...the only requirement after that is that you leave a comment on any one of my monthly post each month for the next 3 months. I may post 3 times in one month but you only have to comment on one of them or all 3 if you'd like as long as you comment at least once a month.  Hope I've cleared up some things.

So what have I created for you today?  Well I finally got away from the boxes for a minute and thought I would create a card and maybe even enter a few challenges.  So without further ado.

This was a fun 5.5 square card to make as I followed a YouTube video on how to color using Promarkers. Lucky me had the exact same image so I could follow along (not as good) but I gave it my best shot.  I need to get a few of those ultra fine tip nibs.

The markers used to color the floral arrangement were: Pine, Bright Green, Forest Green, Mulberry, Plum, Fuchsia Pink, Yellow and the Blending Pen.

Thanks Kimberly for a fabulous and easy to follow tutorial on using Promarkers.  I am a Copic girl but I've been known to bounce from one media to the next.

I added a few Prima flowers splashed with gesso, a few pearls and created a border using Cheery Lynn's "Border Carnivate" which I have had for more than a year.

I continued on the inside with paper from the same Bo Bunny "Smoochable" collection that I know is more than a year old.  
I made two pockets to hold one tag with a pre-stamped message and another one for a personal message.

On the flip side of one of the tags is another pocket large enough to hold a small token or a gift card.

I used a Stampin' Up punch to make the little tabs at the top of the tags and the stamped images are all clear stamps from Fiskar.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Cheery Lynn Design - #204 Anything Goes (10/02)
Come and Get It - Clear it Out Use A Stash Item (10/03)
