Good Friday morning and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend planned. I have to do our taxes, go grocery shopping and then I can relax and get some crafting done while I watch the Walking Dead marathon that leads up to the season finally Sunday Night. Nooooo! It is too soon.
Anyway back to the real reason we are here today. Friday Freebie at Bugaboo. If you head over to the Bugaboo Store you can grab this sweet little bear for yourself. And d forget to check out the wonderful creations by the Design Team over on the Bugaboo Challenge Blog.
For my card today I colored the image with Copics and used papers from DCWV and Kathy Davis Ambrosia 6X6 pad. The chipboard pieces are from Studio g that I picked up at JoAnn's the other day.
I gave the nose and button a coat of Glitter Mod Podge. And all those lovely flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I was so pleased with the really quick service, the selection and the quality of the product.
And then the inside.
I also wanted to share this card that I made the other day using the Scene It-Snails image that you can find Here. I had so much fun coloring up these little guys. Again the flowers are from Wild Orchid.
Glossy Effects really makes the eyes pop out. I wish the snails around my house looked like this.
I really hope you all have a great weekend.

A Fun Card; Good For Any Occasion.
This was so much fun to do. It really is an all occasion card. You just have to send it to the right person. Special. This is another image by Mitzi Sato-Wiuff of Aurora Wings.
And then inside.....
So for this card I colored the image Ghost Bride with my Copics and then used Stampendous embossing powders and glitter and fragments on the background. I love the way this turned out.
I found a wonderful scrap of netting for around the edge. It is hard to photograph it so it shows up well so I am sorry about that.
The face was a challenge but I went to the Walking Dead site to get ideas for colors. And then inside.....
I hope you all have great day.

Another New Release From Bugaboo
Okay, it seems like I just did this post. The week went by so fast. It has been a glorious week weather wise. I just love the spring. I don't love the allergies but the new green fields and the mustard greens in them. I have Iris getting to open up and the dutch iris and freesia are in full bloom. The mornings are the best. Everything feels all glowing and fresh. When I look out my kitchen window there is a big pot of Ranunculi's in red and orange and the way the light shines it makes them glow. Just breath taking. WOW!
So on to the New Release from Bugaboo for today. So spring! So Easter!
I colored the image with Copics and added some Glitter Mod Podge over the egg. The flower is a K & Co. punch out. The papers are My Minds Eye.
Isn't she just adorable. You can head over to the Bugaboo Store and grab this up for yourself along with all sorts of Easter and Spring Images. And don't forget to drop by the Bugaboo Challenge Blog to see all the wonderful projects by the Design Team.
Inside is so bright and ready to write. Ha Ha that rhymes.
Have a wonderful week everyone.

A Lot Of Coloring Fun.
I wanted to share a project that I did last week using an image from a New To Me Artist, Mitzi Sato-Wiuff of Aurora Wings. I discovered her through a friends post on Facebook and I love her images.
This one is called Girl With Pansy and you can find it in her Etsy Shop, HERE. She has a lot of wonderful Images that I just can't wait to color up.
For this piece I printed the image on some Watercolor Canvas (Wall Mart) that I had hiding on a shelf and when it came out of the printer I sprinkled embossing powder on the still wet ink and heat set it. I knew it would run and bleed if I didn't and the only thing to remember is to have everything ready to go as it comes out. I have been known to start sprinkling on the embossing powder while it is still printing. I think I will put this in a frame when I find the right one.
The sun rays are done using a stencil from Memory Box and I used DreamWeaver: Pearlescent Embossing Paste for the texture. I then colored the edges with Copics. The background is watercolor and then the rest of the coloring is done with Copics. I just love my Copics.
The circles are covered wit Goosebumps, The butterfly with Stickles and the pansies have a bit of Glitter Mod Podge.
The rhinestone flourish is Zva Creative. The other embellishments come from all over.
I hope you all have a good weekend and come back soon for some more fun images. Do go check out the Aurora Wings Blog and or the Facebook Page.

Jodie has the most adorable New Image for us to play with today. All the Designers over at Bugaboo had a great time with this one today. You just have to head over to the Bugaboo Challenge Blog and check the projects out and then run over to the Bugaboo Stamp Shop and grab this Baby.
For my card today I colored the image with Copics and used some papers from a 6"X6" paper pad that I picked up at Wall Mart. The Bling is from ZVA Creative and the butterflies are from dies by
Cherry Lynn Designs
I just love all the Skelekinz Designs by Jodie. I used Glossy Effects on the eye and hair bows and rattle and bib.
And inside is ready to write your favorite greeting.
I hope everyone has a great day and a wonderful week.

Bugaboo Freebie Day
It is Friday again and I'm very happy about that. I am excited that I get to take a trip to San Francisco tomorrow for Wedding Dress shopping for my niece. It should be a really fun day. Haven't been to the city in a very long time.
I am also happy that it is Freebie Day over at Bugaboo and Jodie has a great image for you today. It can be used for so many occasions. If you hop over to the Bugaboo Challenge Blog you will see some great examples by the Design Team. And then head to the Bugaboo Store and grab an image for yourself.
For my sample today I used some papers by We Are Memory Keepers. The butterflies are from a sheet by K&Co and the image is colored with Copics.
I really enjoy working with Goosebumps and Spray inks lately. Always a mystery as to how it will turn out.
And the inside.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
