Bugaboo, Humorous Gus!


Hello, This weeks Catch The Bug Challenge is to make a Humorous card! It's a super easy challenge with Bugaboo images like Gus! This is Gus Golf. He's a digi image at Bugaboo Stamps and a clear stamp at Totally Stampalicious!

I coloured Gus with copics and added crystal effects to his glasses.

I really liked the MOJO231 sketch from yesterday, so I used it for this card too!

Have a Great Day!

I coloured him with copics, and used the shapeabilities tag shape 3 to cut him out, but I shortened it a little.

I also used this weeks MOJO Monday sketch MOJO231! The card base is black, with marina mist embossed with the peace sign EF. The designer papers are from Memory Keepers Teen Angst pad.

RILEY0512, Riley's a Swinger!


Hello, sorry I'm late today, I'm having some lighting problems!

It's time for another challenge from the Riley and Company Design Team, this weeks challenge RILEY0512 is Hosted by the super talented Cindy, and she's challenging us to create a scene, one of my favorite things to do!

For my card today I used the new Swinging Riley. He's coloured with copics. I masked him off and sponged some clouds in the background.

The tree was made with a die-namics die. For the grass I used the MS punch. The flowers were made with one of those tiny punches you can get at $ stores. I coloured the pearls with a copic to match better.

Please join us in our challenge and upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog. Please you the keyword RILEY0512 if you upload to any forums.

Have a Great Day!

For my card today, I used Ava Flowers. I also used last weeks SCS sketch SCS374.

I coloured Ava with copics and added some stickles to the flowers and butterfly.

The card base is regal rose, with white embossed with the butterfly EF.

I will be sending this to the Kards for Kids. I was inspired by #1 Let It Be Spring - pink, green, white and florals!

Bugaboo Freebie Friday, Theodore!

Hello, meet Theodore Bear, he's this weeks Freebie at Bugaboo Stamps, hard to resist this cutie!

I coloured the image with copics.

I also made this for this weeks MOJO Monday sketch, MOJO230. The card is 4.25" square.

The card base is black, with a layer of riding hood red, very vanilla on top embossed with the square lattice EF. I think the bottom is basic grey dp, but I can't remember which pad, I found this piece in my scrap bin.

The flowers were made with 2 marvy punches and the leaves were made with the MS frond punch.

I finished it off with some twine and some stickles in the flower centers.

Make sure to stop by the Catch The Bug Blog to see more great samples of Theodore by the Design Team!

Have a Great Day!
