Whoopsi Daisy card using markers

Well I had to make myself do this challenge as I'm not comfortable using my promarkers. I was reasonably happy with it when I finished. I used this so pretty little girl digi which you can find here. The papers are Bearly Mine, my usual Joy dies and square doily from stash.

Whoopsi Daisy DT card

I had a lovely time with my grandsons in Devon but came home exhausted. You forget how tiring 3 boys can be, especially a nearly 3yr old who thinks he's same age as his big brothers.
Well on to the challenge at Whoopsi Daisy. This week is wedding /Engagement/ Congrats. Linnie has some lovely digi sheets suitable for this which you can find here. I was short of time so I used this lovely precoloured image from sheet 451.


Flowers are my favourite Joy dies I would like to try some of the new quilling flower dies not sure how easy they are. I used to do a lot of quilling but I have some arthritis in my fingers now.
Papers are Pink Petticoat and Bearly Mine. Butterfly was a freebie die in magazine. The sentment is a freebie from Sharon at A Piece of heart
I would like to put this in these challenges
