Penguins in snowflake

I'm here to show you my card featuring this week's Freebie Friday -  you can pick it up for free in the Bugaboo store.

I fussy cut the images and placed them onto a blue backgrond sprinkled with white mist. I arranged them into the opening of a negative die cut I made using a Memory Box die. I sponged or rather brshed, blue ink arond the edges of the snowflake. Added three glitter pearls and stamped a Christmas greeting.

Naked stamping - no coloring

We have just had a week of Christmas chaos over at Catch the Bug, and now we are back to or reglar Saturday challenge which runs for a week. The challenge is "naked stamping" - no coloring allowed but ou can use colored inks.
I printed off the the cute Snowflake snowan three times and made a selfie inspired card using my photo strip from Marianne.
There's little color on my card, red mirri card was used for the "merry", green card stock for the branches and one single red pearl was added to the silver glitter heart pendant.

Christmas Chaos - Photo and freebie

Over at Catch the Bug we're preparing for Christmas - it's Christmas Chaos week with lots of prizes to be won. For day 7 we have a photo inpiration for you.
And since it's Friday you can get the image I used for my card as this week's freebie in the Bugaboo shop.
I cropped and printed the image three times to make the photos for my film strip. The red paper has a nice shimmer, so I just added a border of scrap paper and added a silver heart and some greeneries.

Christmas Chaos - Colors

Over at Catch the Bug we're preparing for Christmas - it's Christmas Chaos week with lots of prizes to be won. For day 6 we have a color challenge:

I find color challenges to be quite tricky myself.  Most of the time I just choose colors and items along the way, but for color challenges I try and be extra organized. I select a non colored image, collect markers and papers with the right colors, someties also embossing powders and other mediums. Then I plan what colors to go where and I get started.

Christmas Chaos - A gift card holder

Over at Catch the Bug we're preparing for Christmas - it's Christmas Chaos week with lots of prizes to be won. For day 3 we want to see something other than a card -  you can create anthing that can be used for or as a gift.

I've made a gift card holder using a plain white strip of paper. I stamped the sentiment directly onto the card base, and the flip was die cut with a scalloped stitched border die. Then I used a strip of patterned paper to make the belt. I die cut my snowman and the scalloped circle, as well as the tags.

Christmas Chaos - Merry&Bright

Over at Catch the Bug we're preparing for Christmas - it's Christmas Chaos week with lots of prizes to be won. For day 1 we have a nice and simple challenge theme - "merry and bright".

I used the image Candy Cane Penguin, colored it with Promarkers and added glossy accent to the candy. I cut ot an opening on the DP and panel and added a doily and die cut trees in the background. The sentiment is old, it was something that came free with a magazine at some point, I tucked some die ct sprigs underneath it.

I thought I was doing well on my Christmas cards this year, but I still lack many cards. Here is a quick and easy one, just a colored image and an embossing folder used for texture.

Later today starts the Christmas Chaos week over at Catch the Bug, it's a great opportnity to make those last minute cards... I need about 20 more. Yikes!
