Bugaboo Christmas in July Wednesday Challenge -Day 5- Make it Funny

Day 5 Wednesday- Make it Funny Challenge - with the movie inspiration of Christmas Vacation, Home Alone or A Christmas Story. The movie Christmas Vacation and the tree trimming fiasco was my inspiration!  I love this little elf and he always brings a smile to my face!

I used the wonderful Elf image from Bugaboo titled ' Elf 001', coloured him with Copics, added a die-cut word sentiment and a wee white snowflake.

Bugaboo Christmas in July Tuesday Challenge - Day 4

Day 4 Tuesday- Bingo Challenge - with the movie pick of Elf

I used the wonderful Elf image from Bugaboo titled 'Deacon Candy Cane, coloured him with Copics and designed the card to fit the Bingo Challenge! I chose the vertical line  of Sparkle-Bugaboo Image-Sentiment. I added sparkle to the rim of the hat, the bells on the collar and the bell on the end of the hat. The round flakes of the white part of the round circle are also sparkly. Had a terrible time getting them to show up on the camera pictures.😃

Day 3 Monday Challenge Theme: Anything but a Card   with the movie  Santa Claus is Coming to Town as the inspiration source. As it has the song "Santa Clause is coming to Town'  in the movie I decided to create a project (Gift Bag) based on the words 'He is making a list and checking it twice' as my inspiration.  Bugaboo's Ho,Ho,Ho stamp seemed to be close enough lol!

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #238 Here Comes Summer

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #238 Here Comes Summer.  Chanya is hosting today's challenge and you only have to make a summer-themed project such as a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece or some home decor, the choice is yours.  Have fun!
I used a Stampin' Up stamp set titled 'Beautiful You, Stampin' Up Pacific Point and Whisper White cardstock and two Stampin' Up punches. The flower and leaves are from a die-cut. The white background was embossed.

I picked this stamp set because what better way to reflect summer than a  scene of a girl in blue water and a lovely blue sky!

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #237 Dies or Punches

             Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #237 Dies or Punches

Welcome to another challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and Jo is hosting today's challenge.

The theme of this weeks challenge is 'Dies or Punches'.  As usual, anything you care to enter is fine, a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece,  some home decor as long as it meets the Dies or Punches theme.

I decided to do a wedding/anniversary type card in white, creamy  colours. This was not a good choice as it was practically impossible (for me) to take a presentable photo  (the frustration level was high lol!) and this was as good as it got. I do like the card though.

I used two flower border dies, two leaf dies and for the sentiment a small rectangular die.  The large flower was from a package bought at a local craft store.

Have a great day!
