CYP 82 - Bingo Board - Bugaboo

Craft Your Passion has another great challenge and sponsor this week. We are playing Bingo! Bingo with Bugaboo! (That's kinda fun to say...LOL).

If you haven't figured out yet, I'll let you in on a secret - I love angels. So, I was so excited to find this adorable image at Bugaboo to work with this week. Isn't it just too cute?

I colored the image with my Copics then I added tons of bling - picking some glitter paper to frame the image, adding glitter to the clouds and wings, some wire wrapped around the frame and threaded with some iridescent pearl beads, then finished it off with a diagonal bubbly bow. I added just a few extra clouds cut from a second image to the frame and a couple of extra stars scattered around as well. I think it turned out just too cute!

You can find Bugaboo here and the Craft Your Passion Challenge here. I would love to see what you can come up with!

Catch the Bug Challenge - Guest Designer

Exciting news!!! I was asked to join the Catch the Bug Challenge design team as a guest designer this week. They have a great photo inspiration challenge going on over there - you should definitely pop over and check out the eye-candy their team put together for you.

I used this great image "Stella Witch - Call Me Witch" - it just makes me giggle. I LOVE Stella! She's my hero! Says all the things we all want to say, but are just too darn afraid to say! LOL

For this card I kept it simple - coloring her with my Copics and using some scraps as a color blocked background. I added just a touch of bling by using a sequin ribbon to the edges of the orange DP. I had this great chipboard tree from Little Yellow Bicycle that fit perfectly for a back drop for Stella.

Bugaboo will be sponsoring our next challenge at Craft Your Passion starting on Monday, so make sure and pop over there for some other great Bugaboo inspiration.

Delicious Doodles - #5 - Saintly Good vs Ghastly Evil

Over at Delicious Doodles we've got a great challenge going on... Saintly Good vs. Ghastly Evil! I knew I wanted to side with the "good", and finding an image was extremely easy for me.


I chose this great image from Teri because I instantly related to and fell in love with it. About 12 years ago my husband and I had a still born child and one of the things that got me through that was the thought that my little girl was resting with angels. This image depicts the way I like to think of her... being cared for and loved until we are once again together in heaven.


Whichever side you pick, or show both on the same card like many of our design team ladies so expertly did, come join our challenge and show us your devilish side, or your heavenly side!

CYP #81 - Crafty Sentiments - Use Kraft Paper

I can't believe another week has flown by... I've been so busy that my crafting time has taken a hit. I did enjoy having some craft time Friday night to work on this adorable image from Crafty Sentiments for our current challenge over at Craft Your Passion Challenges. It's an easy one this week - just use kraft paper on your project. Here I decided to try my hand at using my Prisma colored pencils on kraft paper again. I'm liking the results and feel like I am finally getting the hang of it a little bit. With some more practice I might actually use them more often.

So come join us at Craft Your Passion - it's a great challenge and a chance to win some fun prizes from a wonderful sponsor.

CYP #80 - Pink - Karen's Doodles

Karen's Doodles is the sponsor over at Craft Your Passion Challenges this week. I got this adorable image from them - isn't it just too cute? I colored her with my Copics, sure to use pink for our challenge supporting breast cancer awareness month. I had bought a pair of little girls jeans at our local ARC store the other day just because the embrodery on the legs was sooo cute, but when it came to this card, the pocket seemed a better fit. I added a little silver concho, some distressed patterned papers and some hand stitching to the edges. The sentiment is a Cloud 9 stamp with a simple handwritten note.

Now it's your turn - add pink to your card with two or more images and join us in the fun over at Craft Your Passion - You never know what you might win!

Delicious Doodles #4 - Halloween...but...no orange!

Happy Halloween.... But NO orange! That's our challenge this next two weeks over at Delicious Doodles. Teri has some great Halloween images to pick from - I was drawn to this creepy fun image for this haunting card. A simple coloring job with my Copics, and then some crazy-edged cutting for the mat and edge along with some feathers and netting adds to the gothic feel of this Halloween card. The sentiment is from the dollar bin made by Inkadinkado. The papers are from Graphic 45's Alice in Wonderland collection. I colored my pearl stick pens with a Sharpie to turn them black...they add a little touch!
I'd love to see your Halloween cards - come join the fun for a chance to win some great digital images.
I will be entering this card into the following challenges:

CYP #79 - All Occassion - Guylou

We've got a fun challenge going on over at Craft Your Passion - just make an "All Occassion" type card and come join the fun. Our sponsor is Guylou and they've got some great images to work with over there. Go here and check them out...

I'm trying my hand at Prisma's on kraft colored paper... I always like to try out new things and challenge myself to learn new techniques. I've got a lot of work to do to get where I want to be with this method, but I like the way this one turned out.

I added some fun paper from my scrap bin (sorry, don't know who's paper it is)... Then a piece of kraft that I ran through an embossing folder. The sentiment is one from Hampton Arts. I finished it off with a bubbly bow and added some bling pearls to dress it up a touch.

I would love for you to join our challenge - there's always a chance to win and ya gotta love that.

Wow...This week really got away from me. Busy busy busy! It's already time for challenge 78 over at Craft Your Passion Challenges. We are doing an anything goes challenge with a twist - your card must have ribbon. I love our sponsor's images so much, I design for her team as well. Delicious Doodles has some great Halloween images, so that's the direction I went this time around. I used four of her images to create this care. It's hard to tell on this photo, but it's really a window card with the gravestones in the background and everything else on the frame in front.

Would love to see your work this week at Craft Your Passion... Come join in the fun - there are tons of prizes, so lots of ways to win.
