Colour Challenge at Catch The Bug

Hello,

I'm back with another scheduled post today as I'm away for the weekend in Glasgow!  Today's card is my latest Guest DT creation for the Saturday Colour Challenge at Catch The Bug.  This week they have a fantastic colour inspiration challenge for you.

I've used one of their fantastic digi stamps Flower Teapot and coloured it with Promarkers

Materials used:

Digital Stamp - Bugaboo Flower Teapot

Promarkers

Designer Papers - Trimcraft First Edition Storyteller

Sentiment - Personal Impressions

Cardstock, button & twine from stash

I'm really sad that my time as Guest DT has almost finished, I'm hoping I can squeeze in one more card next week before my time is up.  My image is coloured up and ready to go on a card or maybe a tag!  I've really enjoyed working with the regular design team and Jodie's fantastic images.  It's been a positive experience for me as I've made a few cards using images I'd never really have thought to use before but now that I have I love them!

Anyhoo, that's all for now, enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Hugs,

Shona xx

Humour Me Wednesday at Catch the Bug

Hello!

Another scheduled post from me - I'm impressed at how organised I'm becoming!  I'm here to share my latest Guest DT project for Bugaboo Digi Stamps at Catch the Bug.  I've joined them for Humour Me Wednesday where we celebrate the week's most weird and wonderful holidays!

My card celebrates World Goth Day on the 22nd of May!

I've used a fab Bugaboo image called Girl Skelekinz 01 and coloured it with Promarkers.  There's lots of fab Skelekinz digis in the shop if you like all things Goth.  It was great to get a change away from my usual cute and cuddly cards, although I still think it has a good bit of cuteness about it!  I've distressed all the edges to give the card a more edgy feel.  I don't have a tool for distressing, although I believe you can purchase them, I get by with carefully running the open bladed edge of a small scissors along the edge of the card or paper.  I picked up this tip from the Create and Craft Channel when I first started crafting and it's one that's stuck!  

Materials used:

Bugaboo Stamps Digi - Girl Skelekinz 01

Promarkers

Designer Papers - Gorjuss

Heart Die - Marianne

Cardstock, button, twine and letter stickers from stash

Be sure to come and visit us at Catch the Bug to see what holidays the other DT members will be celebrating this week!

Hugs,

Shona xx
