CAS-ual Fridays: Make Your Mark


Hello friends!  I'm doing a super happy dance today.  It's been a very busy week at work, but a productive one, so I'm happy but also thankful it is the end of the week!

And you know what Friday means...time for a new CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!  This week's challenge is to Make Your Mark: use markers for your card this week.  Our sponsor is Crafter's Companion and they have a fabulous prize for you:  Spectrum Noir.  Be sure to pop on over to their blog!
Now, let's talk about markers.  Coloring scares me a bit, so I kept it really simple (and didn't even color in the lines!).  I was inspired by Kara's fabulous card here.  I love hers more than I love mine, but am still happy with the end result.   What about you?  Copic master?  Scared of markers like me?  Use them how you love them and come play along!


And before I go, I must say a sad farewell to Debby as this is her last week with us on the CAS-ual Fridays team...but we know where she is and although we'll miss her...we will be sure to stop by and see her gorgeous work often!

And don't forget CAS-ual Fridays is having a Design Team Call.  Pop on over and check out the details to apply!
