Bugaboo Freebie Friday, Fairy Heart!

It's Friday and you know what that means....Freebie Friday at Bugaboo Stamps! Today's Freebie, Stick  Fairy Valentine, is a real cutie!

I coloured the image with copics and added some stickles to her wings, then punched the corners with a corner punch.

The card base is cherry cobbler with a layer of pink pirouette dp. The strips of dp are from K&Co. Lovely pad.

I also used the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge SSSC204.

The Freebie Friday is available at Bugaboo Stamps for a week. Make sure to stop by the Catch The Bug Blog and see more inspiration using this weeks Freebie!

OBG, Clyde Be Mine!

Hello, it's Oldie But Goodie Day at Bugaboo's Catch The Bug Blog, and today I'm using the adorable Clyde Be Mine, he's perfect for Valentines!

I coloured Clyde with copics, and cut him out with oval nesties. The card base is poppy parade with designer paper from Recollections, I love those candy hearts. The white piece was embossed with the love language embossing folder and I finished it off with some twine.

ABC, Gift Card Holder!

 It's Anything But A Card day at Catch The Bug! For my Project today, I made this pop-up gift card holder I found on pinterest!

 I used Johnny-Music for the front and coloured him with copics. The base is basic grey, and I layered Johnny with more mustard and poppy parade. The designer paper is from DCWV generation tech stack.
I thought Johnny-music was the perfect image for a itunes gift card. The inside piece is dp from the same stack.

Have a Great Day!

This is Ewe Rock. I coloured the image with copics and added crystal effects to her glasses and a bit of sparkle to the stars and guitar with copic atyou spica pens.

The card base is black, with a layer of white embossed with the Star embossing folder. The designer paper is from recollections along with the shimmery yellow, which is embossed with the Musical Notes embossing folder. The image was cut out & layered with the petite oval nesties.

This is the last challenge celebrating Bugaboo Stamps 4th Birthday, and it's Freebie Friday! This awesome Cupcake Tower image is the Freebie this week, and and today's challenge is to include something in increments of 4 on your card or project.

The tag itself was made with the Spellbinders Shapeabilities page maps-tags & flags (wow quite the mouthful!) lol
