Bugaboo New Release Spring Duck!

Hello, Tuesday is New Release day at Bugaboo Stamps, and this is Spring Duck is one of the new images this week!

I printed the image onto white and onto yellow gingham paper from Recollections. I coloured the image with copics and paper pieced the body. There's glitter on the butterfly and flower.

Of course right when I was about to take the photo I noticed the tail wasn't totally glued down, so I added some glue with a quickie glue pen which leaked out and then when I tried to fix it, it left a smudge mark! I managed to get most of it off, but not all, so I ended up covering it with the tiny butterfly punched from glitter paper with a Martha Stewart punch.

The card base is marina mist with a layer of white and then a piece of scrap designer paper I had. The sentiment is from Stampin Up, itty bitty banners.

I also used the Saturday Sketch Challenge #354

You can see more samples using this new image on the Catch The Bug Blog.

All New Releases are available at Bugaboo Stamps.

Have a Great Day!

Bugaboo Freebie Flower Critter Bunny!

Hello, it's Freebie Friday at Bugaboo Stamps, and this weeks Freebie is this Flower Critter Bunny! I printed the image 3 times and coloured with copics. The first was cut out with a circle die. From the 2nd I cute out the face and flower together but cut a bit along the lines between the head and the outer petals, so I could curl the ends a bit. Then from the 3rd image I only used the center petal which is also curled a bit for a 3D effect.

The card base is so saffron, with a layer of white embossed with the Daisies embossing folder. I also used designer paper from Recollections.

I'm also entering this in this weeks Saturday Sketch #353, which is sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps!

Make sure to stop by the Catch The Bug Blog to see more samples using this image. And of course you can get your Freebie at Bugaboo Stamps.

Have a Great Day!

OBG, Happy Birthday Sean!

Hello, it's Oldie But Goodie Day and Catch The Bug, and today I'm showing you a card using Canoe Bear from Bugaboo Stamps.

I made this for my Brother's Birthday to go with the theme...I got him a Bass Pro Shop gift card!

I printed the image twice and coloured them with copics. One image was cut out with an oval nestie and I cut the head and water out of the other, the head is popped up on dimensionals.

The card base is not quite navy with a layer of crumb cake embossed with the woodgrain embossing folder, I also sponged the edges.

I also made this for this weeks Crazy For Challenges C4C275, make a card with a water scene.
