Christmas Cutie

This is Bugaboo's Friday Freebie this week, Sunbonnet Tree.  For this card I turned the black and white image into a "negative" so it was opposite.  I added two gems on her hat, cut her out from a circle die and scraped the edges with a red stamp pad.  I used a die cut tree and added two other round die cuts.

This is an all occasion card made for the current progressive challenge that Limited Runs does every month.  I've been so busy this last few weeks with weddings and socializing.  I love summer!!

For this card I used Bird House 3 and the fun cat that is the current image for the progressive challenge.  I added a grass die to the bottom, I embossed the "window trim" and added gems, flowers and a bow. I did add larger googly eyes to the kitty cat and added a touch of glitter (Stickles) to the hanging cat toy.

Suck An Elf!

This week over at Catch The Bug the challenge theme is "Inspired by your favorite movie".  One of my favorite movies is The 10th Kingdom.  This was actually a Hallmark Mini Series back in 2000 with a fun all star cast based on all of the Grimm Brother's stories, the Grimm way, not the Disney way!  I call this my 'sick movie', when I'm home sick from work and can't do much but lay in bed I will watch this, due to the fact that its 417 minutes long (almost 7 hours).

For my card I used an troll image (the trolls in this movie crack me up!).  This image is called Cute Troll.  I added a die cut that is a tree, but my take of a 'beanstock'.  I added some burlap, hemp twine and some green pearls.  I created my own sentiment sort of quoting the trolls from the movie.

I Love Shoes

This month over at Catch The Bug, Stella Says Sketch the sketch is this:

I used a Bugaboo image from a set called 3 Silhouettes Set.  My boss is always wearing these gorgeous high heels, so for her birthday I wanted to make her a card with a pretty high heel on it.  I kept with the black/grey tones. I used some flag dies, a word die set and a corner die set.  I added some gems and two different DPs.

Hello

This card was made using an image from Sheepski Designs called Kamsin.  I follwed the sketch from Sketch Saturday which looks like this:

I cut the image out using a square stitched die, added some flowers, gems and 2 different polka dotted DP's.  The sentiment and the flag were made using the same DP.

Stinks Getting Old

This fun image is from Sheepsi Designs.  This is called Lil Skunk.  For this card I followed the sketch over at Die Cuttin' Divas.  Looks like this:

I cut the image using square dies and the sentiment using circle dies.  I had some fun with the black, white and greens.  I used an animal print paper for the strips.  I also added a bow and some gems.

For those of you who like the sentiment...

Be There For You

This sweet image is from Bugaboo.  The challenge theme at Catch The Bug is "Anything Goes".  I love the Bugaboo silhouette images!!  This one is called Right Beside You Silhouette.  I print it onto pink paper and cut it out using a stitched edge die, did the same with the frame behind it.  I added ribbon, gems, flowers and used a new dragonfly die set.

Eenie-Meenie-Minie-Mo

This card was made because I'm soooo tired of adulting and felt the sentiment fit my mood and the image...and right now, my skin (sunburn).  I used some fun DPs from a summer paper set.  The image is from QKR and is called Beach Girl.  I added a sentiment from Create With TLC, gems, flowers and several layers from different DPs.

Thanks for looking!
