I'm back!

Whew!  I can't believe it's been five years since I blogged.  Time to blow the dust off this page and get it up and running again.  I don't have any cards to post yet, but it's my plan to remedy that shortly.  Until then, have and awesome evening and I'll talk at you later. 

Time For A Birthday Cutie

I was playing around with my Photo Shop today and merged one of my Bugaboo Stamps images with a circle sentiment I created!  I have some birthdays coming up this month so this was perfect for one of them.  I love this cute little image and used the PNG file to layer it onto this background.  Add the sentiment circle and all I needed to do was add some color!

Creating Again!!!

Wow!  It's been forever since I have created a card!  Life got in the way, and I had to take a break, but I'm back and it feels so good!

First, let me catch you up on the few things that kept me away!

Our youngest daughter got married!

Our oldest daughter is now engaged and will be getting married next spring!

Our youngest, our son graduated from High School!

And in the midst of all that I was dealing with medical issues that turned out to be my gall bladder, which I had removed a little over a week ago!  Whew!  Fast forward to today!

Now that I have that all out of the way, here is the card I created using one of my many Bugaboo images and it's so appropriate because my blessings are too many to count!

Winter Bird Scarf

I love this little bird and wanted him to be a red bird!  I created the sentiment and back panel using Photoshop.

He did the mash.....he did the monster mash.

Halloween is right around the corner and will be here before you know so it's a good time to get started on your Halloween cards.  You'll be glad to know that Bugaboo Stamps has a great New Release image that's perfect for them.  Check it out.

  

I added this cool background from PSE and used the PNG file and added it to the background.  I did a little distressing and added some Halloween themed papers to come up with this card.

Until next time, have a great day and thanks for stopping by!  TTFN

Oh Baby

Good morning!  It's been pretty busy around my house lately and my blog postings and crafting has taken a serious hit because of it.  So sorry I haven't been around, but I'm back and I  do have a fun challenge post for you today.  

It's  an Anything Goes challenge from Catch The Bug and I've  designed a cute birth announcement  card featuring Bugaboo Stamps Boo Peeker Carriage..  Check it out!

  I colored the image using PSE and Copics and kept it pretty simple.

It's time for a New Release image from Bugaboo Stamps.  Would you look at that little darlin?  Isn't she adorable?!!!!!  I featured here on this "all occasion" card, but she would be perfect for just about anything from Thinking Of You cards to Birthday cards.  You decide.

I  colored the image using a combination of PSE 12 and Copics.

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!
