Bugaboo Bingo Challenge Time!

Hello, this weeks Saturday Challenge at Catch The Bug is Bingo!
For my card today I used stripes, starts with S & kraft. This is one of the adorable frogs from Bugaboo Stamps called Beach Frog - sand. I coloured him with copics and added crystal effects to her eyes. 

The card base is crumb cake (kraft) and then a layer of white that I sponged with soft sky using a scallop circle for a mask. The sun and the starfish are both popped up. 

I also used this weeks Freshly Made Sketch FMS136.

Have a Great Day,

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day Everyone! I made this card using a technique my friend Sue showed me. The butterfly from Papillon Potpourri, was stamped with versamark onto vellum, and then I used a B06 copic to colour it in on the back, such a pretty technique.

The card base is marina mist, with a layer of designer paper from the subtles pad on the top and the bottom piece is from the Tea for Two pkg. but they match really well.

The Sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set, stamped in pacific point.

I also used a Freshly Made Sketch from a Week or so ago, FMS134.

Wishing you all A Great Day!

Humor Me Wednesday - It's National Hamburger Month!

Hello, It's Humor me Wednesday over at Catch The Bug, and I made a card for National Hamburger Month! For my card today, I used AKV BBQ - Hamburger from Bugaboo Stamps.

I coloured the image with copics. I started with the coveralls using B97, B95 & B93. I tried adding texture to the coveralls by spraying a linen background stamp with copic blender, stamping off the excess on scrap paper and then onto the image.

The card base is midnight muse, with a layer of white stamped with the Hardwood background stamp in smoky slate. The designer paper is from My Minds Eye Out Of The Blue. The sentiment is from MFT.

I also used this weeks Mojo Monday Sketch MOJO344.
