Crappy Day

Hello and welcome.  Today is Oldie but Goodie day over at Catch The Bug and I have a dandy for you featuring Bugaboo's Crap Set.  FYI - Jodie has had some major computer issues since updating her computer and is still trying to get things fixed.  The weekly freebies can be downloaded from Catch The Bug.  Just look, or search, for the friday freebie post.

After combining then printing my image, I colored it using Castle Art pencils along with a blender pencil before stippling tumbled glass and garden green inks around it.  Once I had layered the colored image, I added some brushed copper brads and added it to a textured cocoa card.  The only other embellishments added were some copper cord, some unloved felt flowers with pearl centers and highlighting parts of the image using Sakura 3D glaze pens.  I'm happy with how this turned out since I colored it while dealing with another migraine.  The migraine had gotten to the point of find something to distract me from the pain/nausea, or cry which would have hurt more I think.

Hello and welcome.  Second post from me today.  For my Pammies Inky Pinkies post, please scroll down one.  As I type, we are finally getting some rain and snow in the nearby mountains here in Central California.  Hopefully as the week goes one, the rain predictions will come true.  In the meantime, I'd like to share a couple of cards with you made with a stamp set from The Cats Pajamas I during their Black Friday sale called Nature's Hello..

 

Onfer

 

I started out by stamping my images in memento black onto a Hammermill white scrap then colored it using prismacolor and copic markers before stippling tumbled glass and garden green ink around it.  Once that was done, I layered the main image then dusted off my Crop-A-Dial and some eyelets I received as a RAK.  After adding the eyelets, I stamped the main image for card background using spiced marmalade distress ink. The border was stamped in summer sun.  I then added the layered image before die cutting my sun out twice from scraps; once in summer sun and once in only orange.  After adding the die cut suns using dimensionals, I dusted off my clear epoxy circle stickers and added one to the suns center.  The final touch was crystal ice stickles to the flower centers.

My second card I chose to keep clean and simple (CAS).  Using the same stamp set, I stamped the main image repeatedly in a row in memento tuxedo black ink.  After coloring using prismacolor and copic markers, I layered it once onto a pacific pointe scrap, added the layered image to the card before stamping the saying also in memento black.  I received the saying as RAK and I'm not sure what Stampin Up set it came from.

Hello and welcome to another Pammies Inky Pinkies challenge.  As always our challenges are anything goes.  This week we're sponsored by  CAS-ual Fridays Stamps and I'd like to thank them for the stamps provided to the design team.  For my card, I am using the beautiful Everyday Dragonflies and there are matching dies here. 

After stamping the larger dragonfly in memento tuxedo black ink onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using Castle Art Pencils before stippling Tim Holtz tumbled glass and tattered rose distress inks around it then layered.  Once I had added some brads from my stash, I adhered the layered image to a card made using white card stock and Echo Park Clover Meadow designer paper I've had for years and never used (NBUS) until now before sponging regal rose ink around the edges.  I then stamped the saying in memento tuxedo black onto scrap white card stock then lightly stippling leftover stormy sky ink around it before layering onto scrap card stock and added that to my card using glue dots.  I then took some scrap wasabi card stock, punched it using my dusty Martha Stewart fern punch, ran it through the crimper before adding to the card using Ranger Glossy Accents along with some Jolee's die cut flowers with bling centers.  The final touch was to add crystal ice stickles to the dragonfly's flower centers and hearts.  I'm very happy with how this turned out and I got to use a lot of scraps in the process of making it.

Springtime Linnea

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card with you that's taken me a few years to assemble (insert rolling eyes) using the beautiful Linnea Sprite from Aurora Wings.  .  I colored her a few years ago, however, between moving, migraines and other health issues, I just never got her finished.  

 

After dusting her off, I lightly stippled bashful blue and so saffron inks around her before layering and adding brads.  For the card base, I dusted off some forgotten Die Cuts With A View posies designer paper from the stash, added it to the card base and then popped up the layered image over a light blue border.  I then added some white grosgrain ribbon to the card before sponging leftover wasabi ink over it since the white seemed a little too bright.  Once satisfied with the card, I found an orange clip I've had for years and added some Picket Fence Spiked Ocean Water sequins using glue dots.  She was colored using prismacolor markers.

Sorry To Hear You're Dragon

Hello and welcome.  Today is Freebie Friday over at Catch The Bug and we have an adorable get well dragon for you called Clyde Sorry To Hear.  You can grab him over on the Catch The Bug blog here.

After printing my image onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using Castle Art pencils and a blender pencil before stippling Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink and some Stampin Up going grey around it.  Once the colored image was layered, I added some silver brads then set it aside.  Taking a grey panel, I dusted off my Sizzix Tim Holtz brick wall embossing folder and dry embossed it using my big shot then lightly stippled going grey ink over the dry embossed images.  Once the dry embossed panel was added to my card, I also added the layered image panel before stippling garden green ink around the edges of the card.  I then took some scrap card stock and punched out several flowers and greenery, adding texture using a dusty crimper, embossing stylus and a soft mouse pad.  I then adhered them to the card using Ranger Glossy Accents.  The final touch was adding bling to the centers of the flowers and highlighting parts of the image using Sakura 3D glaze pens.  I'm so happy with how it turned out since my migraines have been really active again.

Oh Deer!

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I have what should be a quick and easy card to share for a few challenges.  I say "what should be" because this one took me a week thanks to a migraine rebound and my asthma/COPD flaring up again.  

I started out by dusting off an unloved Stampin Up reindeer punch, then punching four reindeer from scrap chocolate chip card stock and setting aside.  I then took a red card panel and dry embossed it using a never before used, and quite dusty, Sizzix Dearly embossing folder along with my big shot.  After adding that to a green card base, and sponging ruby red ink over it, I then added the punched reindeer using glue dots.  Taking a white card stock scrap, I stamped the saying from a long retired Stampin Up set Holiday Best, I received as a RAK, in spruce ink before sponging the same on the edges.  After adding the saying to the card, I then added some green/gold organdy ribbon.  The final touches were wooden Christmas trees I received as a RAK, googlie eyes on the reindeer, and then red/black/gold ice stickles to highlight the reindeer's nose.

It's A Bookmark Kind Of Day

Hello and welcome.  Today I have a cute little bookmark to share with you using Bugaboo's Dollar Flower Bug and like the name says, it's only $1. I've had this image for some time and just have not used it before.

 

After printing off the image on Neenah white card stock, I colored it using Castle Art pencils along with a blender pencil before lightly stippling tumbled glass and garden green inks around it.  I then layered it using scrap card stock before sliding into a plastic sleeve I've had in my stash for years.  After adding the sleeve, I punched a hole using a hand held rectangle punch before adding, and tying off, scraps of ribbon.  It a quick and easy gift for someone, or for yourself.

A Birthday Hedgie

 

Hello and welcome.  Today is the 7th day of Bugaboo's Birthday Bash and with today's challenge, there is a flash freebie offered over at Catch The Bug. For my project today, I chose to use a different image than today's flash freebie since I had just used the same two days ago.   So for my project I am using the Birthday Hedgie 01 image.

After printing my image onto Hammermill white card stock, I colored it using copic markers and Castle Art pencils before sponging Bermuda bay ink around the edges and layering.  The card consists of a Bermuda bay base, dry embossed using a cuttlebug birthday greetings embossing folder and my big shot.  I then lightly sponged matching ink over the dry embossed sayings before deciding to also dry emboss a scrap of groovy guava card stock, and adding my layered image.  For the final touches, I added some dusty epoxy hearts and 3D glaze pens.  I'm really happy with how this turned out since my migraine rebounded while coloring.  Not a good thing I'm afraid.

Oh For Fox Sake!!

 

Hello and welcome.  Today is day five of Bugaboo's birthday bash, as well as the weekly Humor Me Wednesday, so we want to see you make us laugh!  My card today features the For Fox Sake image (a new one for me) that I've turned into a belated birthday card.  This image would also be great for forgotten anniversary's, belated graduations, etc but you get the hint...right?

After printing my image off onto Hammermill white card stock, I colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers before stippling stormy sky and garden green inks around it then layered.  The card is made using Stampin Up really rust as a base along with PTI's Fall Prints designer paper I've had in my stash for some time.  Once the card was assembled, I sponged some ruby red ink around the edges before adding the layered image.  After adding some twine ribbon (recycled from my husbands Christmas present), I added some epoxy letters, as well as Stampin Up's ruby red buttons.  I've had both for years and have never used them until now.  The final touches were a white gel pen for the fox's eyes, and then a 3D glaze pen for the "for fox sake" words so they would look like I had heat embossed them.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.  I still have a bit of the migraine I've been dealing with for the last couple of months.

A Little Hedgie Birthday

 

Hello and welcome.  Today is the third day of Bugaboo's birthday bash over at Catch The Bug and we're all about Anything Bug A Card (tags, birthday wrapping, packaging, etc).  My project today uses the cute little Hedgehog Flower, which is new to me, along with a long retired Stampin Up birthday saying

 

After printing my image onto Neenah white card stock and coloring using Castle Art pencils with a blender pencil, I stippled Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink around the edges before adding a little SU garden green ink to highlight the grass.  Once the colored image was layered, I added the saying, some brads then a ribbon topper before highlighting parts with 3D glaze pens and it was finished.  I'm really happy with how it turned out especially since I'm still dealing with this blasted migraine.  Winter is always my worst time of the year for my migraines.  For some reason, I'm able to handle rain easier than this blasted fog we've been dealing with.

First, a BIG thank you to our sponsor The Cutting Cafe

https://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/

 Please consider checking out all the fabulous digital products they have even if you don't have a cutting machine.  Their cutting files also come in PDF format for hand cutting.  Sweet! Since I don't own a cutting machine, I think it's awesome there is a company that still considers us "fussy cutters" for products.

 

Second, I am thrilled to be a part of the design team for Pammies Inky Pinkies.  I hope you find inspiration from my projects for the challenges.

I started out by printing the new to me Mitten Shaped Card, using the PDF format, onto Stampin Up pacific pointe card stock then cutting it out.  It was then I decided I wanted to pop up layers for my card, so I resized then printed the single mitten twice more onto different colors before cutting them out as well.  I then dry embossed the card base and bashful blue layers using a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and my big shot before sponging matching ink around the edges, and over, the dry embossing.  Once I cut the white layer out, I ran a retired Stampin Up snowflake when over it in bliss blue ink before sponging the edges as well.  I then took a retired stamp set (Warm Fuzzies K1755CL)from The Cat's Pajamas and stamped the main image onto scrap white card stock and colored using both prismacolor and copic markers before fussy cutting it out.  After assembling my card, popping each layer up using dimensionals, I added a silver bow then highlighted parts of the image using Sakura 3D glaze pens.  The final touch was crystal ice stickles to the centers of the snowflakes.

Happy Birthday Deer

 

Hello and welcome.  Did you know Bugaboo Stamps is 11 years old? To celebrate we're having a week of fun challenges over at Catch The Bug.  Today's challenge is to create a birthday project using woodland creatures.  For my card, I decided to use the Reindeer Trio set and type a Happy Birthday saying into the blank image since this set comes with two images - one Christmas, one blank.  It's perfect for those December birthdays that get forgotten, or merged, into Christmas, right?

After printing the image off onto Neenah white card stock and coloring using Castle Art pencils and a blender pencil, I layered it and added some vintage brads before setting aside.  For the card, I took a dusty Cuttlebug happy birthday embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot before lightly rubbing some close to cocoa ink over the embossed images.  Once added to the card, I took a chocolate chip card stock scrap and added it as a border before adding my layered image.  After adding some dew drops and copper cord, I highlighted the birthday saying using a Sakura 3D embossing pen before adding ice stickles and Ranger glossy accents to the eyes.

Birthday Deer

Hello and welcome.  Today is another Freebie Friday over at Bugaboo and today's freebie is called AKV Deer (A Kids View Deer).  With the upcoming Birthday Bash challenges over at Catch The Bug, I chose to make a masculine birthday card using today's freebie.

 

After printing my image onto Neenah white card stock, and coloring using Castle Art pencils with a blender pencil, I stippled Tim Holtz tumbled glass and Stampin Up garden green inks around it before layering.  I then added some brushed copper brads before adding the layered image onto a caramel card with scrap wood grain designer paper I've had for a LONG while and never finished using.  After stamping my saying from a retired Stampin Up birthday set, I added some brown twine repurposed from one of my husbands Christmas presents.  The final touch was highlighting parts of the deer using Sakura 3D glaze pens.  Not bad for creating and dealing with migraines still. I hope to see you join in the week long Birthday Bash challenges over at

It's A Cupcake Kind Of Day

Hello and welcome.  Today is another new release from Bugaboo Stamps called Cupcake Tray and can be found here.  

 

After printing the image onto Neenah white card stock, and colored using Castle Art pencils with a blender pencil, I lightly stippled some Tim Holtz tumbled glass and tattered rose distress inks over and around it before layering.  Once I was finished layering, I added some vintage brads and distressed the edges of the bottom layer using a fingernail before adding to a rose card with Die Cuts With A View Sweet Shoppe designer paper and chocolate chip ink sponged around the edges.  I then added a satin chocolate ribbon, and hat pin I've had for years, before highlighting the words, and parts of the colored image, using Sakura 3D glaze pens.  Once the glaze was dry, I added some vintage pearl bling and dew drops.  I'm really happy with how this turned out since I have been battling a migraine for several weeks.  Fortunately, the pain level was not as bad when I made the card.
