Bugaboo 5th Birthday Party Celebrations - Day 7.

Yesterday was the last day of the celebrations for Bugaboo 5th Birthday and we had a variety of recipes to play with. It was difficult to choose one!

 

I went for the Popcorn recipe: use 3D objects!

 

 

Since I love to add dimension to my cards with 3D dots, buttons, pearls or rhinestones etc. I thought it was the recipe for me.

 

This is my card:

 

He is AKV World Flags - USA (I left the flag blank so it can be filled with a sentiment or a little message) from Bugaboo Stamps and papers from DCWV.

 

Well, last card for a very busy week! I'm happy I managed to find some time to make a new card for each challenge and be part of their 5th Birthday Celebrations!. I love Bugaboo Stamps and it's been a good reason to use some of the images I collected over the years!

 

This card is for the following challenges:

Creative Fingers Challenge # 64: Anything Goes

Bugaboo 5th Birthday Party Celebrations - Day 6.

Hello again with a new card to celebrate Bugaboo 5th Birthday!

 

The theme for the Thursday Challenge is Clowns!

 

I'm happy to have the reason to use one of my clown stamps and make another bright card!

 

 

This clown is Clown Around - Rings from Bugaboo Stamps and the background paper is from Best Creations.

 

I love the little clown!

Here I am again for another card to celebrate Bugaboo 5th Birthday!

 

The theme for the Wednesday Challenge is Humor Me!

 

This is my card:

 

 

I LOVE this girl walking around as if she were a princess! I'm totally different from her but for once I'd like to feel like her!

 

She is Not Everyone Can Be a Princess from Bugaboo Stamps of course. I colored her with Copics and mounted her on a circle card covered with a striped paper from Papermania.

I loved this clean and crisp look!

 

This card is for Bugaboo Stamps 5th Birthday Wednesday Challenge: Humor Me!

* * This is my second post today, please scroll down to see my project for C.R.A.F.T. Challenges * *

 

Well, yesterday I managed to create a couple of cards for Bugaboo 5th Birthday Party Celebrations.

 

On Tuesday the theme was colors, these ones:

 

 

Bright and full of energy!

 

And I used them in this card:

 

She is the adorable Spring Bird - Summer Dress, I think one of my first Bugaboo Stamps!

I used a background paper from Best Creations and added rhinestones here and there.

 

See you later for another card for Bugaboo Party!

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge # 295 - Recycling.

A great challenge today at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge: Recycling!

 

Interesting, isn't it?

 

I love to have to re-use something or find a new way to use an old thing that I would otherwise throw into the garbage bin.

 

This week I've decided to re-use an old music sheet. A while ago I found an old music book in a second-hand shop and I decided to buy it and use the sheets for my crafts.

To tell you the truth I always hesitate before tearing pages apart from old books, for me they are all precious but I love the look they give so I have a go.

 

This is my card:

 

 

My image is H is for Happy Birthday from A Day for Daisies colored with Copics. I tried to choose colors with a vintage look but the card turned out bright and cheerful!

 

If you are looking for more ideas on recycling, have a look here on our Challenge blog: my teamies have done a great job this week too!

Now, onto Tuesday's Challenge... I have to work quickly!

Not Just Card Challenge # 11.

Good morning!

 

It's Monday again... a new week and a new start...

 

Are you ready for a new challenge at Not Just Cards?

As usual it's Anything Goes and we have great sponsors and great prizes for you!

 

I was so inspired by our sponsors' images that I made two projects for this challenge!

 

The first one:

 

 

This sign has been made using Dog from Stitchy Bear Stamps and an old paper I had in my stash.

 

Then, I fell in love with two cute pandas and I couldn't help but using them for this mini card:

 

They are one of the stamps available in the Panda Valentine Stamp Set and they are sooo sweet, aren't they?

 

If I had to choose just one project well, I couldn't do that! I LOVE them both!

 

Have a look here to see the fab projects made by our DT and to check if you're one of last week winners!

 

 



There's a Birthday Party at Bugaboo!

* * * This is my second post today, please scroll down to see my post for our weekly Christmas Card Challenge * * *

 

One of my favourite digital stamps Companies is turning five!

Bugaboo Digi Stamps is having a birthday party for the whole week, with great challenges and, of course, great prizes!

 

I cannot miss the opportunity to participate and, for today, I have a creation I made a while ago but which I haven't had the time to showcase.

 

If you remember my post here, I showed you a little sign for a sewing room I made for a friend. Together with that sign I made a notebook and I re-created it for my shop.

 

Today's theme for the challenge at Bugaboo is bingo:

I went for: Bling - Stripes - Buttons and made this:

 

Since it was first conceived as a gift set for a friend, I kept colors the same as for the sign and I re-made it exactly the same way.

This cute little mouse is Mouse from Bugaboo Digi Stamps, colored with Copics matching the stripes of the background paper.

 

I can't wait to see the next challenges!

 

This creation is for the following challenges:
