It's Challenge Time!

That's right--it's challenge time at www.catchthebugblog.blogspot.com.  Be sure to head over there and check out all of the details, as well as look at the lovelies created by the design team.  This challenge is "Christmas in July"--and we have a sponsor!  Our sponsor is http://www.bizzybecscardmakingscrapbooking.com.au/ .  Check it out--I'm sure you will be as impressed as I was!

Now, for my card:

For my Christmas in July card, I chose an image from my favorite line--Gus Christmas--and it is called Got Cookies.  I used American Crafts Merrymint Licorice DP and American Crafts Milk and Cookies DP.  I paired these up with Papertrey cardstock, used my Janome Sewing Machine (I love it as long as I can see to thread the needle:)), Papertrey ribbon, and two SU oval punches.  I colored my image with copics and added Liquid Applique to Gus's beard and suit/hat fur.  I sure do think Gus looks cute in this Santa suit!


This card will be entered into two challenges:
Challenge # 71 is Christmas Time
Challenge is a free challenge.

Since Bizzy Becs is sponsoring our challenge, I also wanted to share with you a card I created with some of their images!  For this card, I used Bo Bunny DP, Papertrey cardstock and button, image and ticket image both from Bizzy Becs, and ruffled eyelet from Pixie Petals.  I did a little sewing with my Janome sewing machine, and colored my image with copics.  Isn't it sweet?!!!
