New Challenge

Bugaboo has a new challenge today--to create a card/project for Summer or the 4th of July.  How easy is this?  I used an image called Guy--BBQ along with some red, white, and blue DP.  Iadded a sentiment from AMuse.

Friday Freebie

Cute freebie today from Jodie at Bugaboo.  I thought it went very well with the different pieces of Papertrey DP arranged in a quilt-like pattern, the scissors, and the Papertrey sentiment.

Riley Challenge

The new Riley Challenge requires you to "dress" your Riley or Sophie.  I can't draw--and I can't sew either, but I was able to make some new threads for Riley Moustache.  I drew a tie and pair of pants, and then since I wanted them in polka dots, I paper pieced them onto Riley.  According to DT member Joy, this is for your own interpretation--and I interpretted it this was!  I love the mix of these designer papers, and the bracket (which I think resembles another moustache). Boy--was this card hard to photograph.  I tried several times, and this was as good as it gets!  I'm loving these Riley Challenges!

New Release

Jodie (at Bugaboo) has a fabulous new release for you today.  I love this sewing bear.    For my card, I used button DP, a real button, twine, Papertrey cardstock, and copics.

Critter Sketch Challenge

For the Critter Sketch Challenge today, we have a photo inspiration.  Please go to the challenge blog and check out the photo.  You can also view it at http://design-seeds.com/index.php/home/entry/mental-vacation5.  I was inspired by the beach theme as well as the colors.  For my card, I used sandpaper for sand, and the Papertrey flip flop dies and stamps.  I LOVE this set--as I would love nothing more than to be able to live in flip flops year round!  Play along with us; this is a great photo inspiration.

Special Challenge

Today some of the Bugaboo DT members are participating in a challenge with Cupcake Inspirations.  Check it out, and see what inspires you.  I was inspired with a beach theme (of course, I LOVE summer--so it never takes much to make me think of a beach theme).  I used an image called Dottie Beach.  I like to use sandpaper to look like sand, and I punched out a sun and added a beach brad.  Sure makes me think of the beach!

Bugaboo Challenge

New challenge today!  Create something with buttons, twine, and a sentiment.  I needed baby cards, so--once again--I used the image AKV Giraffe.  I used similar papers and made one for a boy, and one for a girl.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

New Release

Cute elephant freebie at Bugaboo today.  It seems that lately I have been forgetting to mail out my birthday cards, so I need an image like this!  I computer generated a sentiment that says "sorry I forgot your birthday!"  It goes perfectly with the elephant image!

Oldie but Goodie

Bugaboo's SSS Challenge

It's Sunday's Stella Sketch Challenge Day at Bugaboo.  Be sure to head to the challenge blog and check it out.  I used an image called AKV Giraffe (a $1 image!)  Anytime I have a baby card to make, this is the first image that comes to my mind!  This was for an "undisclosed" gender so I used all the basic baby colors.

Friday Freebie

New Bugaboo freebie, and since I always need get well cards, I was thrilled to get this one!U ysed a SU Top Note die and a Papertrey sentiment to finish off my card.

Riley Challenge (Move on Down for Two Bugaboo Posts)

I designed a card for the current Riley challenge--to create a card for the man in your life.  My husband and I have raised a granddaughter who is currently a student at the University of Kentucky.  As she is a member of their band (since she is a flute player, she must be the little duck at the very end), this Riley Marching Band image seemed perfect.  I tried and tried to think of an appropriate sentiment to use, and finally came up with this one:  Happy Father's Day to the leader of our band!  We're visiting her this Saturday, and he will receive the card (and presents) then!  Although it's hard to see, I used a Cuttlebug Embossing Folder as the background for this card.  It is sheet music. The notes are MFT dies.

Oldie but Goodie

Today is Oldie but Goodie at Bugaboo.  I made a card using an image called AKV Ninja 3.  I used a combination of black/white, and red papers, a Great Impressions sentiment, and my copics.

Bugaboo New Release

Bugaboo has a new release today--and it's another cute one!  How does Jodie do it?  I colored this little monster with copics, used some DP from Taylored Expressions monthly kits, some Papertrey cardstock, and some twine.  Great card for a little boy!

Critter Sketch Challenge

We have a recipe challenge for you today on the Critter Sketch Challenge Blog--2 ribbons, 4 buttons, 6 brads.  Be sure to go there and check it out, along with our sponsor--Robyn's Fetish.  Play along and you could win 5 images!  You can see that I modified slightly, as I used twine instead of ribbons and pearls instead of brads.  This image is from Papertrey and it is called button bits.  So fun to add those buttons to the image!

Be sure to play along with us!

New Challenge

Bugaboo has a new challenge for you today.  Check it out at the Challenge Blog.  The challenge is a photo challenge--so it's an easy one!  I was inspired by the summer aspect of the photo.  As I was a softball player for many years, this Bugaboo image called Bugaboo Brats--Baseball Girl is a favorite of mine.  I especially like it with these bright colors!  I computer-generated the sentiment.
