Morning... It's time for another challenge at Passion For Promarkers and this week the theme is..

Give Us A Cuddle

I've not been doing an awful lot of colouring in the last 3-4 weeks.. really need to get back into it but my mojo seems to have disappeared completely!!

We also have a fabulous sponsor.. Krista from Saturated Canary!!

Here is my little card.. Plain and simple just how I like them!  I also only used a single colour of promarker (bluebell) for the outfit... This shows you can get some shading using a single colour!!
