Riley Challenge

After a very busy time through the Christmas holidays, I found some time to craft yesterday!  I always enjoy using my Riley stamps, so I played along in the current Riley challenge--Anything Goes!  I used my newest Sophie stamp and made a card that I will use for Valentine's Day.  Isn't she cute!  The papers and cardstock are all from Papertrey.  Copics and a little bling were used also. 

Play along with Riley!  Their images are so much fun to use:)

New Challenge

If you check out the Bugaboo Challenge blog, you will find that the new challenge for today is to create a card/project that is seasonal or winter.  I used Papertrey cardstocks, two different DP, snowflake brads and a little bling, plus an image called Girlz--Winter.  Very timely card for me, as we had our first snow of the yesterday on Wednesday.  UGH--I hate it (but I like this card!)

Play along with us!

Oldie but Goodie

Another recipe card for Liz!  This is a favorite casserole recipe of her's.  I type it up, adhered it to cardstock and DP, and added a Bugaboo image called Kitchen Chicken--Whisk.  That's about as easy as it gets!

Be sure to check out what everyone else on the DT has created.

New Challenge

Bugaboo's challenge today of to use borders.  I had a package of glittered borders just perfect to use for this challenge.  My image of the "piper" from the 12 Days of Christmas set.  I used my copics and Papertrey cardstocks.  Easy as could be!  If you still need (or want) any Christmas images, this set is fantastic!

Oldie but Goodie

Today's recipe card uses an Bugaboo image called JJ Baking.  I created a recipe card with one of Liz's favorite cake recipes.  This will be included in a recipe book I made her for Christmas.

Bugaboo Challenge

Go to the Bugaboo challenge blog and check out the Bingo Challenge for today.  I used the row that included "Pearl--Bugaboo Image--Sentiment".  The image I used was French Hen.  The small tag die cut and stamp is from Papertrey.  This card is one of my favorites!

Twelve Days of Gift Giving

At Bugaboo we are helping get you ready for Christmas with the 12 Days of Gift Giving.  For my project (gift) today, I made a wine set--gift tag for a bottle of wine, a wine journal, and wine glass bracelets.  To make the wine tag, I cut two pieces of cardstock 7" by 3" and another one 10" by 3".  I glued these together so that I had a piece that was 10" by 17"  I scored it at 7" and then turned it completely around and scored it again at 7".  In the 3" section that was formed by scoring I punched a circle large enough to fit over the top of a wine bottle.  All that was left was to decorate as needed!  I used an image called Stella--Men are Like Fine Wine.  The wine journal was from the $1 bin at Michaels; all I did was spruce it up a little!  The wine bracelets also were from the Michaels bin, and they even came with the stickers saying "A, B, etc."  With a bottle of wine, this makes a gift that many would love to receive (my husband has been eyeing it!)

New Challenge

Bugaboo;s new challenge today is a photo inspiration.  Go to the challenge blog and sees what inspires you.  When I looked at the picture of the love birds, I thought of weddings, so I made a wedding card.  I merged an image with Bride 3 and Groom 5.  I had some DP that had the word "Love" across the bottom, so I placed the iamge on it.  With a little bling, it made a great wedding card.  I'm anxious to see the project you make!

For Oldie but Goodie Day at Bugaboo I used an image called "Friends Don't Let Friends Wine Alone".  I used Papertrey cardstocks and buttons, and two different pieces of coordinating DP.  Love this image!

Critter Sketch Challenge

On the Critter Sketch Challenge blog today, you will find that "Anything Goes, as Long as It's Christmas!"  Just in time for me.  I made a gift card and used a Bugaboo image.  These gift card holders are so quick and easy to make--and come in handy to use with those last minute gift cards.

New Challenge

First of the month, so "Anything Goes" at Bugaboo.  I created a recipe card, from a recipe I received when the Bugaboo design team had a swap (unfortunately, I can't remember who sent this recipe!)  I gave Liz the recipe cards, but I copied the recipes for me.  This one looked so good that I decided to scrap it for me.

Be sure to check out what the others have done--and then play along with us!  It's easy since "Anything Goes".
