Catch the Bug Friday Freebie - You Light Up My Life

Friday at Catch the Bug features a fun freebie image.  This week the design team is featuring You Light Up my Life . My project started by printing the image onto Stampin' Up! Whisper White cardstock. The image was colored with Copic markers and trimmed.  I highlighted with a Sakura  glitter pen then applied Mod Podge dimensional magic to the light bulbs and allowed to dry.  The sentiment from Verve Stamps was embossed then layered onto designer papers from My Favorite Things along with the image. A denim ribbon from Stampin' Up! finishes the size A4 card. Be sure to check out all of the Design Team inspiration at Catch the Bug Blog . I'm sharing my card with the following: Word Art Wednesday: Anything Goes #308-#309 Through the Craft Room Door:  Anything Goes 11/7 Crafting With Friends Challenge:  #54 Anything Goes Really Reasonable Ribbon:  #175 Anything Goes

Your Next Stamp Sketch Challenge #76

I'm joining the current sketch challenge over at Your Next Stamp with this little aquarium scene. I started my scene by stamping images from YNS Aquarium Antics onto water color paper.  All of the images were colored with Tombow markers and blended. Papers from Echo Park and enamel dots finish the card.  A final size for my scene is 4.25 square.

Gerda Steiner Monthly Progressive Challenge

The October Progressive Challenge with Gerda Steiner features this adorable Racoon digital image.  If you want to join the fun, simply purchase the image and create a card. Link up on the monthly challenge and next month you receive the monthly image FREE.  What a fun challenge!!  I {Love} this sweet digital image and I knew it would have to be a special design this month. The card started with a galaxy background which was a new technique for me. Now, I am hooked!  LOVE THIS! But BEWARE -- it is messy! I had paint all over me last night when I finished the panel. The tree border die is from SugarPea Designs and the image was colored with Copic Markers. The card sentiment is from a new Stampin' Up! set that I received in the mail tonight called Heartland .  I'm sharing my card with the following: Gerda Steiner Monthly Progressive Challenge:  October   Word Art Wednesday:  #306- 30...
