Christmas in the Snow

Challenge time at Christmas with the Cuties!  Our theme for this challenge is "Christmas in the Snow", in other words, add snow or snowman(men) to your creation and remember, it must be cute!!

Our fun and fabulous sponsor is Bugaboo and they have a special prize for the winner of this challenge. 

Bugaboo has so many images to choose from, it was difficult to make a decision.  I finally decided on Candy Cane Snowman. I colored the image with Copic markers then added stickles to the snow drifts and glossy accents to various parts of the image for added dimension. 

I hope you have fun with the challenge and if you haven't started on your Christmas cards, this is the perfect challenge to get you started.

Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Monster-ous

 Thankful Thoughts is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!  

Our sponsor for this challenge is Star Stampz and the lucky winner will receive three (3) digi stamps of their choice!

While this may not be your typical "thankful" image, I love Monster Under Bed!  I colored the image to match the Monster Life papers purchased at Snap Click Supply Co. and the sentiment was computer generated. 

I hope you have fun with this challenge and I look forward to seeing your creations.  Thanks for stopping by!

Use a Punch at Creatalicious Challenges

New challenge for you at Creatalicious Challenges - ATG with optional "Use a Punch".

Our fabulous sponsor for this challenge is Fabrika Fantasy!  I know summer is coming to an end, the weather is changing but I'm still hopeful for some hot and sunny days - enter the image Little Entomologist.

This image makes me smile and warms my heart as it reminds me so much of my son (now 22).

I printed the image on kraft paper and used pencils to add a bit of color to the image.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the tag and my circle punch to make the hole at the top to add some string.  I laid out some washi tape to the background paper and applied pop up dots to the tag for dimension.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I look forward to seeing your creations!

Feeling Merry Yet?

September already?! Are you feeling merry yet, only 3 more months until December!! Well, to help you feel Merry if you aren't yet, Christmas Craft Creations has a new challenge.  Our theme for this challenge is  Shaped Cards and the winner will receive a special prize from our own Tammy.

For my shape, I decided to make a flag card, it fit perfectly with the image Reindeer Peeker by Bugaboo Stamps.

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the card and all it's layers then colored the image with Copic markers.  I added glossy accents to the baubles and his nose, silver sparkle pen on the bells and top of the baubles and added Wink of Stella on the ornament string. 

I look forward to seeing your creations and remember to add the badge below to your post when entering our challenge!

Snow much fun at Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland has a new challenge this month, our theme is Snowmen & Snow.  Our incredibly fabulous sponsor for this challenge is Jodie from Bugaboo Stamps!

I chose to work with this cute image, Three Snowmen. I love the whimsical feel of this image and had fun coloring.

I used Copic markers to add color and placed stickles to the snowflakes for a bit of wintertime sparkle. I love the sparkle of the snow when the sun shines down, ah those clear, beautiful wintery days!

I am in love with this card, I love the adorable image and the bright colors in the background papers.

As for the background papers, they are from the I Love Snow Paper Pack at Snap Click Supply Co.  .  Thanks to fellow blogger, Shani, she connected me with Snap Click and I have already spent a small fortune! They carry a variety of digital papers of all themes from multiple designers.

Thanks so much for dropping in and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Arty Divas Challenge

Good day everyone! Not only do I have news on a new challenge at Arty Divas, I'm super excited to announce that I am now a new member of their Design Team so make sure to check us out!

As always, the theme at Arty Divas is Anything Goes and our fabulous sponsor for this challenge is My Besties and they have generously donated a special prize for the winner.

I love this whimsical image and I wanted to keep it CAS.  I cropped the image at the crease of the card and I wish I didn't crop it and had the last flower hang over the back of the card. Guess I'll just have to make more!

I used Stampin' Up! markers to add a bit of color and the birthday sentiment was computer generated.  I added Wink of Stella to the tips and centre of the flowers.  This is the perfect image to use when you don't have a lot of time.
