Freebie Friday

Good morning and how are you doing?  We enjoyed our summer vacation at Catch The Bug but it's time to get back on track with a Freebie Friday image for you to grab.  Would you look at these cute little pea pod babies?!!!!   They are adorable and make  for a great We're Having Twins birth announcement so that's exactly what I did here.

I colored them using a combination of PSE 12 and Copics.  The sentiment was created using PSE.  The main panel with the image is just one layer.

It was great getting back in the swing of things.  Be sure to go and grab your free image from Bugaboo Stamps!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!  TTFN

Christmas In July Day Seven-Last Day

Oh the weather outside is frightful. but the Christmas In July challenges at Catch The Bug are so delightful!

Today is the last day for our annual Christmas In July celebration and I have had a ton of fun doing the challenges and showcasing some of the many wonderful Bugaboo Stamps Christmas images.  I hope you have had just as much fun doing the challenges with us.

Today is a treat because you get to get a free image.  Every friday, Jodie-the very generous owner and illustrator of Bugaboo Stamps, gives away a free image.  All you have to do is head over to Bugaboo Stamps and download it.  It's that easy!!

Today's Freebie Friday image is  JJ Merry Christmas and she's perfect for today's challenge!

The challenge is "Starts With A C" and since she's holding a candy cane in her hand, all you have to do is color her up and add her to your project!  

I kept with the candy cane theme and kept everything red and white.  I colored the image using a combo of PSE 12 and Copic markers.  It's Christmas so I added lots of ribbon accents and some bling to make it more festive!

Y'all have left so many nice comments this week and I thank each and everyone of you that came by and showed your love and support for Bugaboo Stamps.  I will be randomly drawing a name from all those lovely comments tomorrow and will post it Sunday morning!  

Thanks again for playing along!  Have an awesome weekend and take care!  Until next time!  TTFN

Hang In There-Freebie Friday

I hope you all had a great Christmas filled with family, friends and all the things you love!  Ours was pretty good and very low key (just the way I like it).  You may have noticed a break in my blogging.  About a week and a half ago, I took a tumble down our stairs and landed hard on my backside.  I spent the week lying on my side which made it impossible to craft :(  I'm finally able to sit up long enough to craft, so I thought you all would like to see this weeks Freebie Friday image from Bugaboo Stamps.  Cuteness warning here!  You are gonna fall in love with him!  He's Lil Kitty and he's adorable!

I colored Lil Kitty using Copic markers and paired him with some fun Animal Print paper from Recollections.    A little doodling, some animal print gems, a bow and the Hang In There sentiment added the finishing touch.

It's Hunting Season

And Jodie has created the cutest, most perfect image for it.  My husband is one of these!!!!  He's a Hunting Nut and he's the Freebie Friday image this week at Bugaboo Stamps!!!

Treat Pocket-Freebie Friday

Morning all my crafty friends!  It's time for this weeks Freebie Friday image from Bugaboo Stamps and have I got a treat for you?!!!  I was inspired by the super cute Pocket Ginger image to make this fun treat hanger! It's the  perfect size  for a pack of cocoa and a cookie!

I printed the image on white card stock and designer paper from my Recollections Sugar Plum paper pack.  I used my Martha Stewart flower border for the trim and added snowflakes to make it more Christmasy.  I also used my Label One and Fancy Tags Die cuts.  Some glossy accents and glitter added the finishing touch.
