Psycho Shoppers

Before we start our event this week we would like to honor a design team member I am  sad to say we we lost just recently. I am sure many of you knew Julie through her blog and through social media.    She was such a great person and a better friend to many.

 Julie Temple has been a huge part of the Bugaboo  Family since 2011.   That is a long time and  we will miss not only her amazing talents but her kindness and willingness help in promoting Bugaboo! 

  We miss you friend  and teamie and we would not be here today without you and your hard work and dedication to Bugaboo Throughout the years! 

 Julie you are gone but not forgotten and I am so thankful for knowing you!
We will be featuring a past project of Julie's each day of the event!

Hello and welcome.  Today is the Humor Me Wednesday Christmas In July challenge over at Catch The Bug for Bugaboo Digital Stamps.  When it comes to humor, you cannot go wrong with Stella.  So my card today features the Stella Christmas Psycho image paired with some Recollections Holiday Traditions designer paper.

After printing off the image, and matching saying, onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers before sponging handsome hunter ink around the edges then layering.  Since I didn't have matching brads, I decided to make my own "faux brads" out of small scrap card stock using a mini hole punch and a Martha Stewart glue pen.  I could then add the layered image to my card before sponging more handsome hunter ink around the edges of the card.  I then added hunter/gold organdy ribbon to the side, highlighted parts of the image using 3D glaze pens before finally add some hunter bling I've had for years in my stash.  I went and created my own saying for the inside by typing out the chorus from Deck The Halls, printed on white card stock then adhered inside.  So now, try singing the Stella saying to Deck The Halls.  I guarantee you will not get it out of your head.  You're welcome. ;)
