Day 3 of the daily marker 30 day challenge and wow, this card turned out much brighter than I intended but I love it. It's a dull day here and this added some much needed colour into my craft space. I used a free stamp from the Craft Stamper magazine, Prima water soluble oil pastels,... Continue Reading →
