Kraft, Embossing & A Pop of Colour!

Hello, this Saturday's Challenge at Catch The Bug is a Recipe - use kraft, embossing and a pop of colour!

For my card I used Present Bear from Bugaboo Stamps. I coloured the image with copics, using E44, E43 & E42 to match the kraft (crumb cake) cardstock. The present was paper pieced with a scrap piece of designer paper.

The card base is melon mambo, with a layer of crumb cake embossed with the Happy Birthday embossing folder, and I finished it off with some twine.

SSSC220, Monster-ous Birthday Wishes!

Hello, I have another adorable Monster card to share with you! I made this using this weeks Sweet Sunday Sketch SSSC220.

I used the Silly Monsters set from Your Next Stamp. I love this with the bright colours. I coloured the monster with copics and added crystal effects to his eyes, it`s not dry yet, so his eyes look a little cloudy. The designer paper and green is from Recollections. I also embossed the green piece with the SU decorative dots EF.

Have a Great Day!

YNSFFC12, Monster Eyes!

Hello, I made this for my Kards For Kids group and for the sketch Challenge at Your Next Stamp, YNSFFC12.

This little guy is from a YNS set called Silly Monsters. First I stamped him onto white, and then onto blue designer paper. I cut the monster out of the designer paper and used an exacto knife to cut out his teeth. The spots were coloured right on the designer paper, and the eyes are covered with crystal effects.

The card base is marina mist, with a layer of natural ivory that I stamped with a stamp from the SU gorgeous grunge set in certainly celery. All the designer paper strips were scraps!

Have a Great Day!
