Cuttlebug Challenge.. World Card Day

Image
By
I choose this little gal to start my holiday cards off. She can be found on sheet # 90 at Whoopsie Daisy.  Make sure you pop on over there.  She's got a wonderful sale right now.  BOGO and we all love that!

The snowflakes are cut from When It's Cold Outside Cartridges. The Light Pearl Blue snowflake is from Coredinations Gemstones collection. It was cut at 5". The Silver background is also from the Coredinations Gemstones collection. The large white snowflake was cut at 5 1/2". before I assembled them I smeared stickles on the white cardstock snowflake to make it sparkle.

The dark blue background is from the Recollections cardstock. I ran it though the Cuttlebug with the Snowflake flurries folder three different times to make the snowflakes over lap.

The image is colored with Bic pens and watercolor pencils. For the silver bow and shoes I used the Sakura gel pen. Added sparkles to her eyes and a drop of stickles to the middle of the flower. The finishing touches I add a silver Merry Christmas and little rhinestones to the snowflake.

Recipe:
Paper: white printer paper for the image and large snowflake. Core'dinations for the snowflake and snowflake background, Recollections for the dark blue background
Little girl: Whoopsi Daisy 90™
Markers: Bic™
Embossing: Cuttlebug Folder Snow Flakes™
Cartridges: When It's Cold Outside™
Ink: Sakura gel pen
Silver Merry Christmas

    What a fabulous big snowflake and a great way to showcase this image. I am fascinated with how you colour since I have never heard of Bic markers. You can sure make magic with them.
    Hugs!

Wow!  Hello everyone.  I know it's been a very long time since I posted.  I've had to deal with some personal issues and couldn't dedicate my time to crafting.  But, I'm back!  I have been doing some really fun activities and having lots of fun with Betty from Bettybrett.blogspot.com .  She has amazing Friday try days. Her crops are the greatest.  I'm looking forward to the November one. It is called Candy Cane Lane. I'm even going to teach a class of my own in paper piecing. This class will be the 23rd of November.  More details on this to follow.    I've so missed crafting and I've missed my followers.  I always said " I love my computer because my friends are in it".  LOL  I will be posting pictures soon.  I just need to get this computer set up to do it with. Huggles,  Wanda

Cuttlebug Challenge #48

By
Cuttlebug Challenge is having a month long celebration for their 1 year anniversay. This weeks challenge was a gift bag and card. For my gift bag I used a clipart from Daisie Company. I burnt around the edges to make it look old. (Little hint here. Don't do it in your kitchen even though there is water so if it get out of hand. It does set off the fire alarm. OOPS LOL ) Then I made the tag with my favorite folder for this project the Houndstooth. Tied it on with my twine to keep it in the same theme. My card I used Dustin Pike Digi-art Colored it with Bic pens and Gel pens. The inside of the card I used Clip art from Daisie Company and used the houndstooth folder again to distress the scroll.

Do you stop daily and thank those around you for blessing you? Do you appreciate the small things in life? I sure hope so! With that in mind my wonderful fairies have put together some awesome THANKSGIVING/THANKFUL themed crafty items. Along the way there will be opportunities for inspiration, and blog candy. So make sure you hop all the way through, leave comments on every blog, I decided to cover all the bases. So I made this table tent that is for Thanksgiving and on the back I'm writing what I am thankful for on each family members place card.  If you would like to get the directions on how to make the table tent check out Betty Bee's Buzz .  Rosemary did a fantastic job on this.  I used Tim the Turkey from Digital Delights and colored him with Bic markers.  The paper is from K & company and Cardstock.  ...
