Bugaboo Be Naughty

Hi everyone, 

Another bugaboo image and another great sketch challenge to play in.  I had started coloring this image a few weeks ago with no plan in mind, but I knew I would use it soon. This sketch challenge just seemed to work perfectly. I am going to join a few other challenges since their are lots of us making Christmas cards right now.

Relax and enjoy

Hi everyone,

When I saw this freebie a few weeks ago from Bugaboo stamps, I just had to play with it. It will make a great retirement, birthday, or Father's day card. I am sure I will be using this image again, and again. I used the sketch challenge again this week, but I did want to keep it simple as it will be for a guy.  I colored the image with copics and other alcohol markers. The "enjoy" is from Jillibean soup. Thanks for stopping for by.

Catch the bug sketch challenge #716

My very first 2019 Christmas card

Hi everyone,

While I was working on the Sketch challenge for Catch the bug, I thought I would work on my first Christmas card of the year. This reindeer looks alot like me when thinking about Christmas gifts. Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Halloween 2019

Hello everyone,

I think this is the first Halloween card that I have ever made, but I couldn't resist this Bugaboo image. I saw the "Catch the bug" sketch challenge #715, and wanted to participate. I like the sketch challenge because that's sometimes the hardest part for me to figure out. I also like that it is a simple sketch, and what a great way to use my DCWV rock star paper! I wish you all a happy Halloween.

Grand Niece

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share this card I made to welcome our Grand Niece.  I used a Bugaboo Digi stamp and followed their sketch challenge here http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2019/06/stella-says-sketch-challenge-711.html. I coloured the image with alcohol markers, and punched the heart border with a Martha Stewart punch.  I think this image is so cute, and I have more cards with this cute elephant in the works.  Thanks for stopping by.

Another card...

I saw the next sketch challenge and wanted to play along again at Bugaboo, and I thought these two images would be very cute together.  The garden background is a Bugaboo image, and the hopping flower is from Your next stamp.  Another favorite of mine.  I had some trouble coloring the flower.  It started out just yellow, and ended up being more pink to go with the paper. Sorry, I don't remember where the flower paper came from, but the striped paper is DCWV.  I am entering this in the Bugaboo sketch challenge #705, and Your Next Stamp Friday Fun challenge #109.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

I'm back

Hi everyone,

I have been away from the blog, but not away from card making and crafting in general.  I have continued to work on lots of things, but I got frustrated with my computer and therefore stopped posting.
I was excited to see this challenge from Bugaboo because I had a little boys birthday coming up and he loves dinosaurs.  I have to say I don't think I have any dinosaur stamps, so I was super relieved to see I had a Bugaboo image that is just perfect, and then a perfect sketch challenge to make it all work. http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2019/02/stella-says-sketch-challenge-704.html
The paper is from DCWV.
I hope he likes it.  Thanks for stopping by!
