All square here

 Morning blogland,

As another Tuesday comes around we have a new challenge over at Passion for Markers, and this week theme is 'Square cards only'.

Our Teamie Marlene chose the theme and the sponsor for this challenge is Colour of Love Digis, who allowed the DT to pick a digi to use - I took advantage of the kind offer and chose a really cute image.

As always, you don't have to make a card to enter the challenge but you do have to follow the theme and the rules - which are use markers and don't backlink - if you want to be in with a chance to win a randomly chosen prize from our sponsor.

So, here's what I made, and to be honest it felt very odd using a square card blank again!  I used to use squares all the time, but in this incarnation as card maker I've moved on to rectangular - this did take a little re-adjustment, but it may have started a little streak!


Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
coloured with my Markers (also I added a mouth for the character - I have a 'thing' about mouthless character images!)

Rubber stamp:
taylored expressions: Simple Strips - Friendship 2

Dies:
taylored expressions: Simple Strips - Asymetrical
Pretty Pink Posh - Scallops Two
and a frame from a set that I don't know who made as I brought it second hand

Anything else:
random scraps of patterned paper
ages old pre-made border embelishment

And that's about it folks!

I think this should be a popular challenge, and I look forward to seeing what everyone cooks up!

See you soon,
Sarah
