Psycho Shoppers

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today is day 5 of Bugaboo's annual Holiday Chaos event over at Catch The Bug.  My project today uses one of Bugaboo's famous Stella images is unfortunately so true.  It's called Stella- Christmas Psycho.  This is perfect for the Christmas rush; especially this year.  Every time I used it, I have the saying in my head to "Deck The Halls".  You're welcome. :)

After combining, and printing, the image off onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using my Castle Art colored pencils.  Once the coloring was finished, I lightly stippled some Tm Holtz tumbled glass and broken china distress inks before layering and adding brushed gold brads.  I then doodled some faux sewing "stitches" around the image, added dimensionals then popped it up on a red card with a blue border.  After adding some gold cord on the side, I added some dew drops and a Making Memories poinsettia I've had for ages.  The only other embellishments added was two Sakura 3D embossing pens and ice stickles highlighting parts of the image and poinsettia center.

Kidz Reindeer

 

Hello and welcome.   Today is day four of this year's Holiday Chaos event over at Catch The Bug and it's also a new release and a Bingo challenge too.  Today Bugaboo is releasing Kidz Reindeer as a flash freebie and it can be found here on the challenge blog until 7pm today only.  For my project, I went with Ribbon/Bows, Bugaboo image, sentiment.

After printing my image off onto Neenah white card stock and coloring using Castle Art pencils, with a blender pencil, I stippled Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink around it before layering and adding brads.  I then dry embossed a wild wasabi card, and a poppy red scrap border, using a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and my big shot.  Once the card base was assembled, I sponged Tim Holtz forest moss distress ink around the edges to highlight the embossed snowflakes.  I then added the layered image panel over the dry embossed border using dimensionals.  For my saying, I dusted off a retired Stampin Up set, Warm Words, stamped the saying in memento black before punching it out using a retired Stampin Up large oval punch.  Taking my stipple brush, I then stippled the left over tumbled glass ink around the edges of my punched saying before adding it to the card.  After adding a white/silver organdy ribbon knot, I finished the card off by highlighting the image using crystal and waterfall ice stickles.

Cinnamin Roll Presents

 

Hello and welcome.  Today is day 3 of Bugaboo's annual Holiday Chaos week of challenges over at Catch The Bug blog.  Today is the Anything But A Card day.  For my project, I've chosen to make a Christmas stocking stuffer, or it can be used as a hostess gift too.  Safely...of course!

I started out by printing the never before used Gingerbread Ornaments image onto Hammermill white card stock then colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers.  For the white parts of the candy canes and parts of the gingerbread men and woman, I used a Souffle white pen and a white gel pen for the gingerbread teeth.  Once the marker coloring was finished, I added some real red chalk then layered the image and added brads.  I then took a cinnamen roll candle I had purchased in Michael's dollar spot a few years ago and added it to a clear cellophane bag.  After adding my bag topper, I secured it in place with staples.  The final touch was adding some silver snowflake stickers I've had for years.
