Recently Nikky Hall asked people if they wanted to be Guest Designers over at the Graph'it Challenge. I entered and I was amazed that I was offered a Guest Design Team position for two challenges. I chose a challenge in May and my post can be found here and the challenge going "live" today.
I am very sad that my Guest Design Team role has come to an end but I have loved working with a lovely bunch of talented crafters and of course I don't need an excuse to play/craft with my new "love in my life" my Graph'it pens. As I said last time I never imagined anything could replace my love of Promarkers. I make my cards solely to sell to raise funds for different charities and therefore I can't have everything craft-wise I would love to have. I waited and waited and then tried a few and couldn't get over how good they are. I was amazed at the depth of colour, how well they blended and the cost. Nikky Hall has also brought out a DVD on tips on how to use them so that has gone on my wish list as everyone can always learn something new.
I have decided that my last Guest Design Team project would be a labour of love as I have made a calendar for 2015 and everytime I look at it I shall remember being part of this Design Team for a few challenges.
The Graph'it Challenge for this fortnight is "anything goes with makers" so that's a nice easy one for you to play along with.
Right are you ready to see what I have made. I have used lots of different Polkadoodles CDs and some digital stamps along with backing papers from magazines, some of the CDs, what I have been given and some from Wellington Bear.
