Photo Inspiration Challenge!

This week it's a Photo Inspiration Challenge at Catch The Bug
That's Stella and Gus when they were young and in love, and my card is them now! 

I coloured the image with copics and added tiny gems to Stella's flip flops.
The card base is crumb cake, with a layer of blue embossed with the d'vine swirl embossing folder. I finished it off with some twine and the sun was made from a flower with the boho blossom flower punch.

OBG, Kidz-Graduate Girl!

Hello, it's Oldie But Goodie Day at Catch The Bug. Today I used Kidz-Graduate Girl from Bugaboo Stamps. I think she's so cute. I made this for my Daughter's girlfriend, who just graduated from University. The school's colours are red and gray so I went with those colours.

I coloured the image with copics and added a bit of sparkle with copic atyou spicas in red and gold. The card base is white, with a layer of basic gray and the red piece is from Recollections. The star is gold glimmer paper and I embossed the sentiment, from SU, with white embossing powder.

I also used the deconstructed sketch DS204

HMW, It's Eat Your Veggies Day!

Hello, it's Humor Me Wednesday over at Catch The Bug, and I made a card for Eat Your Veggies Day, which is today!

I know it seems weird to showcase a juicy burger on Eat Your Veggies Day, but this is actually a portabella mushroom burger topper with veggies and as a side he's having a tossed salad...or maybe grilled veggies! lol

This is AKV BBQ-Hamburger from Bugaboo Stamps. I coloured him with copics. This whole card started with the small piece of scrap designer paper, I added some grass, twine and a sentiment and there you have it!

SSS310, Happy Graduation!

Hello, it's time for this month's Stella Says Sketch over at Catch The Bug...
I used this month's sketch to make a Graduation card for my Niece who will be graduating from Grade 8 this month. I used Ava Grad Diploma from Bugaboo Stamps. 
I also used an oval instead of the circle to better fit the image and I wanted the leopard of the designer paper to show.
I know this seems like odd papers for a grad card, but when I checked out the schools website to see what their colours were, I found they were blue and that their mascot was a leopard, so this seemed like a good idea!
I coloured the image with copics. The card base is black, with a layer of blue embossed with a leopard embossing folder and designer paper from Bo Bunny zoology. For the embellishments, I used 3 sequins each topped with a rhinestone.

Please join in our challenge and upload your card to the Catch The Bug Blog, you have the whole month to enter!

Have a Great Day!

OBG, Stella Nursing - It Won`t Hurt!

It`s Oldie But Goodie today and at Catch The Bug, so today I used Stella Nursing - It Won`t Hurt, from Bugaboo Stamps.

My Niece, who just got married on May 2nd, had to have her appendics removed (suddenly) this past week, so I made this for her.

The card base is real red, with a layer of designer paper. I embossed the white strip with a Hearts embossing folder and used a spellbinders die (tags & flags) for the rickrack.

Stella was coloured with copics, I added tiny gems for earrings and crystal effects to the needle and her glasses.

I also used the Feeling Sketchy #121 which Bugaboo Stamps is Sponsoring this week!
