Today’s handmade card has been created for the new challenge at I Love Promarkers Blog Challenge #381 that starts today.

The theme for this challenge is to use something square but you must use either promarkers, flexmarkers, aquamarkers or trias on your work.

I have used a digi stamp image from Knitty Kitty called Cat’lin Sparrow (Pirate Cat) digi no 61.
