Mailing Packages

Hello and welcome.  It's time for another weekly challenge over at Catch The Bug and today I have a card made using this week's freebie Crabby Cathy Mail Packages.  I have the same image using Stella, but not Crabby Cathy.  Gotta love them both!!  Now Jodie, at Bugaboo, is having some computer issues still, so the freebie may not appear on the freebie download page.  Jodie is working on getting the issues resolved as soon as possible.  If you don't want to wait for that, you can purchase the image here.

 

I started out by printing the image onto Neenah white card stock before coloring using my Castle Art pencils and a blender pencil.  I then stippled some Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink around the edges before layering and adding brads.  I then took some scrap card stock and dry embossed it using my Big Shot and a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder.  Once those were layered and added to the card, I dusted off a Making Memories poinsettia flower, added that using glue dots before adding a red bling center.  I then popped up the layered image using pop dots and then added a clear bling flourish.

Merry Wishes Snowglobe

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card I made using a stamp set I recently got from Impression Obsession called Penguins Skating CL819 which is on sale right now on their website.  If you buy the stamp set, you get the matching die for free.  Who doesn't like free, right???

I started out by stamping my images onto scrap white card stock then coloring using both prismacolor and copic markers before die cutting them out.  Once that was done, I dry embossed a scrap light blue panel using a cuttlebug embossing folder and my big shot then added to a blue card.  As an after thought, I rubbed some Tim Holtz broken china distress ink over the dry embossed snowflakes using a stipple brush.   All of the die cut images were added to the card using dimensionals before adding a glittered blue ribbon I've had for years and never used.  My final embellishments were diamond and waterfall ice stickles and a couple of 3D glaze pens to highlight the sentiments and snow globe base.
