Bugaboo ATG Challenge

07 Saturday Aug 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Bugaboo, CAS

I am so sad that Bugaboo stamps has closed down! I had already created this acrd for the August ATG challenge though so decided to post it anyway…

I have a clean and simple card using a super cute embossing folder that I haven’t pulled out in a long while and I am not really sure why not? I mean what is sweeter than a smile embossing? Maybe this sweet block by Bugaboo called Someone’s Reason! I colored it up with Copics and cut it out and popped it on fun foam before putting it on my embossed panel – soooo sweet!

I hope you were inspired today!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,
Lyn

Bugaboo Sketch Challenge – Birthday Cupcake

04 Sunday Jul 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Birthday, Bugaboo, Sketch

≈ Leave a comment

Today we have another Stella Says Sketch Challenge. This month it will be month long.

My project features Scarlette Cupcake – she is so fancy in her long gloves and high heel shoes. I love her!

I just went with it on this one. There wasn’t a whole lot of planning. I cut my image with the banner die before I colored it and when I cut off the flame, I almost started over, but then remembered an awesome yellow flame shaped gem I had in my stash so I just kept moving ahead. I colored her up and then found the cardstocks to match her. I used a piece of washi to look like the top of the sketch and then I took a little liberty with my sentiment placement. I hope everyone will be ok with that because this card was so much fun – it makes me happy! ๐Ÿ™‚

I hope you are inspired to join in the sketch challenge with us and have fun!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Bugaboo ATG Challenge CAS Birthday

03 Saturday Jul 2021

Catch the Bug is going to two month long challenges. Today we have the first and it is an Anything Goes Challenge. I have a clean and simple birthday card for you inspiration.

I combined the sentiment and image from Stella Facebook Birthday and printed it out on lightweight watercolor paper. Then I smooshed some Distress Oxides on top to add color without having to color. It was hard not to pull out my color pencils or Copics but ultimately I love that I was able to create a fun card in a relatively short amount of time. I just had to die cut the layer and adhere them together.

What do you think?

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you were inspired! Now its your turn to try to create something clean and simple without spending a lot of time!

Hugs,
Lyn

Bugaboo SSS – Graduation Time!!

27 Sunday Jun 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Bugaboo, CAS, Copics

≈ Leave a comment

Today we have another newย Stella Says Sketch at Catch the Bug. It is easy to following and you can do a lot with it.

In the continuing saga of “use your stuff!” I pulled an embossing folder today. In all fairness , there is really only a yearly need at best for this one but it has been a year or more so it is time!!

I colored up Deacon – Grad Diploma with Copics, fussy cut him, and added him on top of my graduation hats embossed panel. I used washi tape before I embossed to create the stripes so it would look like it blended into the panel. I added a simple congratulations sentiment and it is going in the mail ๐Ÿ™‚ I love it when my cards don’t become another part of my stash – what about you?

I hope you are inspired to join in the sketch challenge with us and have fun!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Bugaboo ATG Challenge – Birthday Puppy

19 Saturday Jun 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Birthday, Bugaboo, CAS

≈ Leave a comment

Today starts a new challenge at Bugaboo Stamps and as the new format says…Anything Goes! I have really been trying to use some of those tools, papers, stamps, dies (you get the picture) that I just “had to have” at one time or another and then proceeded to put in a drawer and forget about them… Am I the only one? Today, I pulled out a die from Waffle Flower that cuts strips and some colored cardstock colors that I don’t often reach for anymore…

I used a cute puppy from the Bugaboo Stamps Birthday Puppies Set. I colored up my image with Copic markers. Die cut the square with a Simon Says Stamp die then put it all on my fun hand made stripe background. SWEET!!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you were inspired! Grab your supplies and USE them!

Hugs,
Lyn

Bugaboo – Stella Says Sketch

23 Sunday May 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Bugaboo, CAS, Sketch

≈ 1 Comment

Today starts a new Stella Says Sketch at Catch the Bug. It is simple and fun!

I pulled out some of my stash pieces of papers (already started on a card) that had some great color combos, and had so much fun coloring my image – Butterfly Bear 4 to match the paper rather than coloring the image and finding papers to match… So much easier this way! I used Copics.

I hope you are inspired to join in the sketch challenge with us and have fun!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Bugaboo ATG Challenge

17 Saturday Apr 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Bugaboo, CAS, SplitCoastStamper, Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, Techniques

≈ Leave a comment

Today starts a new challenge at Bugaboo Stamps and as the new format says…Anything Goes! I have tried slimline cards before (I think they were called tall cards then :)) but I really wanted to play around with a tall digi and make it tall enough for a slimline card. I found the perfect image in Morning Coffee. I totally know how she feels some days are just like that. And mornings…grrr.

For my card, I made my image as tall as I could and still keep it the right width (a slimline card is essentially 8.5″ tall and 3.5″ wide.) I colored up my image with Copic markers then did some detailing with Polychromos pencils. I had a clear stamp set from Sweet N Sassy Stamps that had coffee splashes and spots and a perfect sentiment for this not ready for the morning gal… I had a slimline die set in my stash waiting for me to finally give it some love so I layered the image. I used some banner dies to cut out and mount my sentiment. It was a little harder than I thought it would be to work with a canvas this size using just one image, but in the end, I absolutely LOVE how this came together!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you were inspired! Grab your supplies and try a slimline card if you haven’t – they fit in a business envelope for the same stamp as an A2 card ๐Ÿ™‚

Hugs,
Lyn

Bugaboo Stamps Freebie Friday – Umbrella

16 Friday Apr 2021

Today Bugaboo has a cute umbrella for the Freebie Friday offering – You can get it HERE. Considering the amount of rain lately, it is a really timely image haha! I created a collage of umbrellas by placing them randomly over my page before cutting a panel. I added a simple, chunky sentiment and a bold black. To finish it, I added the only color in the form of some enamel dots. Super fun, super easy!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you are inspired! Have GREAT weekend!

Bugaboo – Bee Kind

29 Monday Mar 2021

Posted by Lyn T in Bugaboo

≈ 1 Comment

Today at Bugaboo is an “Anything But a Card” Challenge. I have created a sweet little ATC Coin featuring Bugaboo Bees – Flowers. I printed the bee on watercolor cardstock and colored up with copics. I added a few random textures and doodles. Then I thought it would be cute to add the single word “Kind” to go with the bee. Sweet and simple and that is all there is to this one.

I hope you were inspired.

Thanks for stopping by!
