Today’s handmade card has been created for the new challenge at I Love Promarkers Challenge #523.
The theme for this challenge is Anything Goes with the option of Add A Sentiment.
You must use either promarkers, flexmarkers, aquamarkers or trias on your work.
Our sponsor for this challenge is The Crafty Witches.
For my card I have used one of their digital images called Zodiac Goddess Capricorn.
I decided to make this image into a Christmas card.
