Today’s handmade card has been created for the new challenge at I Love Promarkers Blog Challenge #396 that starts today.
I have used a digi image from Ike’s Art called Vintage Easter Bonnet.

The theme for this challenge is anything goes with an optional theme of using three different embellishments. You must use either promarkers, flexmarkers, aquamarkers or trias on your work.

The three different embellishments that I have used:
Decorative die cut
Sentiment die cut
Quilled flowers
