Just Because.........

I have made this card today for no other reason than I haven't made one in a while and was getting itchy fingers lol. So I chose this fab image of Mo's (Late) that I fell in love with as soon as I saw it. It is another of her freebies, I can't believe how generous she is with her images. After searching my favourites for a challenge to enter I am entering this into the Passion for Promarkers challenge which this week is to make your background using Promarkers only.

I made the background by using Apple, Grass and Mustard Promarkers in straight lines then cut the card into 6 cm squares and jumbled them up before sticking them back down onto the backing card (think I should have left it as one piece now though). The image was coloured with Promarkers too. I am not completely happy with the blending but think I am getting better with practice. I haven't put a sentiment onto this yet cos I don't know what it is going to be but I think it would be suitable for a belated birthday or get well card.
