Another New Year. I hope this one is not so crazy busy all the time like last year. I'm ready for a break. And I did take a little break and made a new card with an image by<a href="http://sylviazet.blogspot.com/"> Wee Stamps</a><a href="https://saturated-canary.myshopify.com/">.</a> Unfortunately, Sylvia is in the process of figuring out what to do about the new VAT Tax Laws and is closed for the time being. You can find her images in rubber at Whimsy Stamps. I am taking the clothing Class as well as the Animal Coloring Class and Hair and Skin class over at Kit and Clowder and just love the results so far. You must check out the <a href="http://kitandclowder.ning.com/">Kit and Clowder Blog</a> for the classes and come join us on<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder/"> Facebook </a>too.<br />
I had a really hard time getting the lighting right on this thing . I shot it 3 different lighting conditions and each one had one good result.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The first was shot outside and is the best as for color and detail. The papers are Colorbok from WallMart. The lace is actually a wrap meant for mason jars that you can find at Michaels.<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Indoor shot with two regular light bulbs. Need to get a new florescent so I can have both. This shows really yellow but you do see the Glossy Glaze and Wink of Stella glitter brush on the wings and Wink on the dress trim. I colored this with my Copics. </div>

I just love them and I knew they would make perfect cards for my brother , nephew and daughter. The first card I'm sharing uses the image<br />
<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/200139473/nimbleknees-gherkin-creepmas-elf-digi">Nimbleknees Gherkin Christmas Elf</a> . How cute is this guy? This is for my brother. He will love it. I use Rick's images a lot for cards for Greggie. The papers are from a pad I picked up at Michaels last month by Recollections, I really liked it last year also because when I was going through my stash I found one also. Never can have too much paper. I cut the tree from one of the sheets that has a bunch of trees on it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In the close up you can see that I have used Glossy Effects on the eyes and metallic pen on the bells. The image is colored with Copics.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
And then the inside is finished off with an image from one of the sheets of paper. I forgot to photograph these before I wrote on them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The next card is for one of my nephews and uses the image <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/200224656/were-here-for-elf-class-creepmas-elf?ref=shop_home_active_3">We're Here For Elf Class</a>, They look like they need it. Papers are from the same pad.<br />

The eyes on this are done with Glossy Effects that was heated with heat gun until it just began to bubble. And when it dries it has this really great effect.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is a card I made for my daughter and son-in-law who live just outside of Austin, Texas. I have used the image<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/205073702/eggnog-anyone-nimbleknees-gherkin-2?ref=shop_home_active_17"> Eggnog Anyone?</a> I do not remember what paper pad I used for this one.

I colored the image with Copics and then used little 3-D elements from Recollections. I was digging around for these and found a whole box of things in this color combination. Have got to make more cards. So little time.<br />

I didn't even have dinner at my house but there was still a ton of work. And then yesterday and this morning I had to go out with my sisters for some Black Friday Shopping. We had fun.<br />
So this weekend over at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder/">Kit And Clowder Facebook</a> page there is a huge 5000 member party going on. Contests and Bingo and a lot of sharing. The members on the facebook site are all very talented colorists. You need to check it out <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/kitandclowder/">HERE</a>. I have three new cards I have been working on and I wanted to share . First off for this post I have a delightful <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=7043">Winston Bear (Splish Splash) from Polka Doodles</a><br />
I have been taking the Animal Coloring Class over at <a href="http://kitandclowder.ning.com/project">Kit and Clowder </a>and I am learning so much. This technique uses Alcohol to get the furry effect.<br />

I'm so happy it is the weekend and I can take some time for Me.<br />
The image I used can be found <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/169560037/instant-download-digital-digi-stamps-big?ref=related-6">HERE</a> in Sherri's Etsy Shop. I colored the image with Copics and the card base is made with a Cut File from <a href="http://monicascreativeroom.se/">Monica's Creative Room</a>. She has some great files.<br />

It was a hard decision to make but with all the computer issues I've been having and not getting assignments in on time and not being able to uphold my duties as a Team Member, this will be the best for everyone. I have been on this Team since the beginning and will miss all my friends a lot.<br />
So for the New Release this week over at <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo Challenge Blog,</a> I made this adorable image into a fun little Christmas Card.<br />
I used papers from DCWV Winter In The Woods Stack and I did some Frantage on the background of the dog/deer.<br />

I started The Animal Coloring Class (Over at <a href="http://kitandclowder.ning.com/">Kit And Clowder)</a> and this is one of the techniques that I have been practicing. The next photo shows it a bit better. It uses the Imprint method on the dog fur. I am so excited about this class. Alyce is a great instructor and if you want to take your coloring to the next level, any one of the fun classes she offers will do it.<br />

Well I spent the weekend pulling out all the Christmas Pads of paper and the boxes of embellishments to get ready for lots and lots of Christmas Projects. Which brings us to the subject of this post. An adorable image from Bugaboo. Head over to the <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo Challenge Blog </a>to see what the Designers have to share and then pop over to the<a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/"> Bugaboo Store</a> to grab up some images for your own Christmas projects.<br />
For my card today I used Traditional reds, and golds with papers from a Pink Paislee Pad.<br />
I used double sided tape and glitter around the edges of the pattern paper. Then I added some stickers and snowflake buttons with a rhinestone on top to dress it all up.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The inside is pretty also but I can't get the navy blues on the background to come out looking like blue. I always have a hard time with the darker colors. I need to work on a better lighting space for shooting cards.<br />

<br />
<br />
Before I get started today I want to let you all know that Bugaboo has a sale on all <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/">Halloween Images</a> through October 31st.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/assets/images/badges/hweensale.jpg" height="200" width="200" /></div>
So Tuesday means Release Day at <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo</a> and today we have an image that will look lovely on your Christmas Cards this year. Wait until you see all the wonderful examples the Design Team has to share with you over on th<a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">e Bugaboo Challenge Blog. </a><br />
For my card today I had to do a little fussy cutting and I can't believe what a hard time I had getting the Spray Mist just right. I used papers from a new Authentique Christmas Selection that I bought at the Scrapbook Convention last Friday. So pretty.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc9VFC1VYGYeBDAlvzOlyHXcnC21u7AORJTmXpPGXr6xkuj0WKp6oQefQOEyfHCTxST2ja4RuMKJude6_4Cry6qoM_zYC4-ZTmYpwHDRDb1SYApcpJKWrb8_XkeU6i4pqDElt92Ap1yCtw/s1600/DSCN7755.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc9VFC1VYGYeBDAlvzOlyHXcnC21u7AORJTmXpPGXr6xkuj0WKp6oQefQOEyfHCTxST2ja4RuMKJude6_4Cry6qoM_zYC4-ZTmYpwHDRDb1SYApcpJKWrb8_XkeU6i4pqDElt92Ap1yCtw/s1600/DSCN7755.JPG" height="320" width="223" /></a></div>
I also pulled out the box of Who-Haas for Traditional Christmas Colors to grab some embellishments. I used double sided tape to add the red glitter frame around the image and then some Glitter Mod Podge on the ornaments. I cut the ornaments and stars out and popped them up but it is hard to see in this photo.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

As always the theme is Anything Goes and the twist this week is make it Halloween.<br />
This image that I used is not necessarily a Halloween image but I think it worked out pretty well. The image, Little Star, can be found <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/205330268/instant-download-digital-digi-stampsby?ref=shop_home_active_3">HERE</a> in the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ppinkydollsart?section_id=13880735&ref=shopsection_leftnav_1">Ppinkydolls Etsy Shop</a>.<br />
For this card I used papers from a DCWV stack and colored the image with my Copics. I have a ton of these Halloween stickers around and it was so hard to choose which ones.<br />

For my card today I colored the image with Copics and did a little paper piecing on the hat. The papers are from a 6X6 pad by Pebbles that I got at Tuesday Morning the other day. What a fun place to shop.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used some metallic pen for the bell and added some Glossy Effects on the eyes.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well I see that my blog post for last week didn't make it here so instead of trying to redo it I will just start fresh today. It is New Release Day at <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo</a> and today there is another witch for you.<br />
I had fun coloring this with my Copics.<br />
The papers and ribbons were sitting on my work table from all the cards I have made recently for my Daughter and Grandsons in Texas and this made a fun card.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used a stippling effect around the image and I have to say...I still need more practice.<br />

The theme this week is Anything Goes or Fall Colors. Fall is my favorite time of year for color. The warm glow of the leaves on the trees. Yellow and orange and golden brown. The beautiful colors of fresh crispy apples just off the tree and all the wonderful variations of pumpkins and gourds that are out there.<br />
Before I get into the details of my project for today I wanted to let everyone know that there is a Design Team Call going on right now over at PPINKYDOLLS, so if you are interested click<a href="http://ppinkydollschallenge.blogspot.nl/"> HERE</a> for details.<br />
So for my card today I am using the image <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/200263647/instant-download-digital-digi-stampsby?ref=shop_home_active_15">Bear Friend.</a> I used some wonderful papers by Echo Park and the little rabbit on the botton right is one of the dimensional elements that you can get to go with the papers.<br />

I'm glad for that but I'm also sad that it is October already. I have a ton of things to do to get ready for a Halloween Party here on the 25th and then it will be time to think about Christmas. Forget Thanksgiving this year. Maybe my daughter will do it at her house again. It was very nice last year. Anyway enough of all that lets get on with Today At <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo</a>.<br />
So it is Friday Freebie and Jodie has an adorable trick or treater for you. You can pick one up for yourself <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/">HERE at the Bugaboo Store</a> and don't forget to hop on over to the<a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/"> Bugaboo Challenge Blog</a> to see the fun creations by the design team. For my card I colored the image with colored pencil and Copics. I used papers from a DCWV Pad that I have had around and some fun ribbon and rub ons. <br />

And this is great to start you off on your Halloween greetings. How many of you send out Halloween cards? I usually get one off to my brother in Arizona and I had deliver ones to some of my sisters that are close to me but other than that not so much. Need to work at that this year. Oh yea I always send ones to my Grandsons and Daughter in Texas.<br />
So for this card I colored the image with Copics and used some paper from a DCWV Pad I have had around for awhile now. Then I added some ribbon and Washi Tape along with some chipboard elements and there you go. A cute fun card.<br />

You have a chance to win free images and it is always fun to stop by the<a href="http://ppinkydollschallenge.blogspot.com/"> Challenge Blog</a> to see all the wonderful projects from the Designers and you can scroll down and click on any of the entries to see the entrants wonderful work.<br />
The Challenge # 3, Anythings Goes or Make It Girly, (your choice) runs through Sunday.<br />
For my card today that fits the theme Make It Girly I used Chrishanthi's image <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/203858772/instant-download-digital-digi-stampsby?ref=shop_home_active_6">Pinky With Flaffy Kitten</a>.<br />
I used my Copics to color the image and added some Glossy Effects to the eyes and used my clear Zig Wink Brush for some sparkle. I made this with my older sister in mind. She had the most wonderful Cat named Bert that looked just like this when he was a baby. He is gone now but that cat was a great friend to my sister.<br />

For my card I colored the image with Copics and used papers from a DCWV Stack. The leaves are from a Christmas Pick that I got at Michaels the other day. Perfect colors. I just love going into Hobby Lobby and Michaels this time of year. There is so much to look at. <br />

So today we have a <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2014/01/bugaboo-current-events.html">Bugaboo</a> You can find this image and a whole lot more in the<a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/"> Bugaboo Store Here</a>.<br />
I decided to have a go at using Crayolas for coloring the image today. It is hard to get the shading right because it is hard to layer the waxy crayons. I used Goo Gone to blend the colors so the lines disappeared.<br />
The papers are from a stack I picked up at Hobby Lobby<br />

All the lace and pearls, rhinestones and pretty papers. Yummm!<br />
So for my card this week I used the image<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/203319181/instant-download-digital-digi-stampsby?ref=sr_gallery_1&ga_search_query=kawaii+bebe+friends&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery"> Kawaii, bebe Friends</a>.You can pick this and many more up in the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ppinkydollsart?section_id=13880735&ref=shopsection_leftnav_1"><span style="color: magenta;"><u><b>Ppinkydolls</b></u></span> Etsy Store.</a><br />
So I colored the image with Copics and added a little Crystal Effects and some Zig, Wink Of Stella glitter brush to give her some sparkle. The dies I used are Spellbinders, for the frame and My Memories for the flower border. The papers are Simple Stories, Hello Baby.<br />

I know it seems a little early but if you have been shopping lately you will see that Halloween is on the shelves. From candy to costumes it is all out there. So to get in the swing of things Jodie has this great image for you today. Might as well get a head start. Since this is a black and white image with little coloring to do it is the perfect place to show off some fun color techniques. I did min by using spray mists and then I colored over the black with a gel pen. Lots of shine.<br />

There are a lot more now. There have been Challenges, and Freebies and Discounts from all sorts of Companies and I am having a very hard time keeping up. My internet and computer have also been giving me fits all weekend. I'm surprised I'm here now.<br />
One of the Freebies is this adorable Image from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/437854872923829/">Sugar Nellie</a>.

So I colored the image up with my Copics and used some papers from Echo Park to make this adorable Birthday Card.<br />

Well how about this adorable image by Jodie over at Bugaboo Digi Store. Yes. Today I have a great card to share that could be used for just about any occasion and if you head over to the <a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Bugaboo Challenge Blog</a> the Design Team has a ton of examples to share so you can see how versatile it is.<br />
So for my card I colored the image with Copics markers and then used Distress Ink around the outer edge and then used really diluted Distress ink to pain in the background. when that was all dry I just left little drops of water all over the background.<br />

The flower I made from an <a href="http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=45&products_id=136">SVG Cuts file</a> that I bought years ago when I first bought my Cricket. It is still one of my favorite files. I have purchased and used tons of SVG Cuts. <br />
