Welcome to our <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2020/07/christmas-in-july-week-long-event.html">10th annual Christmas in July</a></b>! Our theme this year is Santa's Workshop; we have a full week of fun challenges so buckle up for some fun! Did I mention there will be prizes?<br />
<br />
Before I proceed with the challenge details, I would like to honor our late Design Team member Julie. Julie was a fixture on the team since 2011 and we will miss both her and her creations. Here is a <b><a href="http://julietemple.blogspot.com/">link </a></b>to her blog.<br />

I went with <b><a href="https://bugaboostamps.com/products/reindeer-christmas-goodies?_pos=1&_sid=7d9c205fb&_ss=r">Reindeer Christmas Goodies</a></b> today; you can color the reindeer like a "regular reindeer" or you can color him like Rudolph! (We have always loved Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer at our house!) I wonder what is in the present and stocking full of goodies created in Santa's workshop? He is colored with pencils an I added some glitter to the string of lights on his antlers and some glittery snowflakes for embellishing.<br />

Good morning! It's <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2020/06/anything-but-card_22.html">ABC Monday</a></b> at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b>...that's right, Anything But a Card! I have a gift box to share with you. I love the pre-scored gable boxes from Hobby Lobby; I stock up when they are 1/2 price because they are so simple to just fold on the scored lines to assemble, then add an image, band, and die cuts, fill with shred and insert gift...easy peasy! Cute too!<br />
<br />
The darling sheep are colored with pencils to coordinate with the scrap of patterned paper from Doodlebug. I went with orange and blue because my son loves orange. Here's a close-up:<br />

Good morning! It is Freebie Friday at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b> and this adorable kitty is up for grabs! I had to color him orange, like my Wendel. Wendel is a bit chubby...er, fluffy too! Haha! I loved the sketch at <b><a href="http://trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/2020/05/challenge%20457.html">Try Stampin' on Tuesday</a></b> and I pulled out some pretty Spring-y paper from Lawn Fawn. "Wendel" is colored with pencils and I've used a touch of glitter to accent the hearts. Here's a close-up:<br />

Good morning! Today I have a card to share that I made for one of our COVID-19 physicians. We have 2 on the unit, 1 day shift and 1 night shift. Both are great! One of the nurses made a special bulletin board for them and some adorable owl pot holders since they both like to cook. She asked me to make them cards "with an owl". I made a quick trip into Hobby Lobby, which recently re-opened, and bought the one and only owl stamp. Would I have chosen this image? No! Sometimes you have to work with what you've got!<br />
<br />
Just some thoughts.... I know that in Iowa many counties are "opening up"; meaning businesses are re-opening with restrictions. This is really scary to me! We have not peaked and are not scheduled to peak until mid-June. I encourage you to continue practicing social distancing. If you need to be in public, please wear a face mask, use hand sanitizer, <b>and remember not to touch your eyes, nose, or mouth! </b>Make your trip brief by having a list and a plan before entering the store. We <b>all</b> need to do our part for the safety of <b>everyone</b>! As someone with an inside, front and center view...this is crucial!<br />
<br />
I've colored the owl with pencils and added a dash of glitter. I loved the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches this week and realized at the last moment that I had to flip it because of the sentiment I had already printed for the inside...so glad that I had'nt glued it down! The patterned papers are from Lawn Fawn, I love the combo of pink and green! Here's a close-up:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Good Morning! Happy Easter to my Christian followers! Easter sure crept up on me this year. As a nurse I am considered an essential employee, so with social distancing I go to work and venture out to the grocery store about once every 1-2 weeks. I make big Easter baskets for my kids every year, even though they are 19 and 21; they are light on the candy and I would fill them with fun items the kids like...books, video games, clothing, coffee pods, gift certificates, etc. Designing them is always such fun for me, but his year they are getting a deposit in their bank accounts!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Speaking of <b>social distancing</b>, I urge you to comply! It benefits you, your family, your friends, and health care workers. I know some do not understand the importance of this and think "It won't happen to me." but it can and you can spread it to your loved ones. <b>The U.S. now has the highest number of</b> <b>COVID-19 related deaths in the world! Even more scary, it has not peaked here in the U.S.!</b> As a RN working <b>front and center</b> during this pandemic, <b>please stay</b> <b>home!</b></div>

Those cute teeth made me pick this image as I was looking through all of <b><a href="https://bugaboostamps.com/collections/easter">Jodie's cute Easter images</a></b>. Seriously though...those teeth! Love them! This bunny is colored with pencils and I've accented the eggs with glitter. The paper has been in my stash a long time; if you look closely you will see that it has a gold shimmer...it is so pretty in real life! Also, the paper I've used for matting is purple, not black...it did not photograph well...darn it! This is so pretty in real life! Here is a close-up:</div>

Good morning! This adorable little chick is taking us into Spring. Who's ready for it? I know I am!<br />
<br />
I pulled out some Spring-y Doodlebug papers and colored the image, with pencils, to coordinate. I've used the <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2020/03/stella-says-sketch-challenge-806.html">current sketch</a></b> from <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b>. There is still 1 week to play along and it's a fun one, so give it a try. Here's a close-up of the colored image:<br />

Since St. Patrick's Day is quickly approaching, I decided to break out a bit of green (and pink, of course!). I colored up this cute little ewe with pencils and used the sketch from <b><a href="http://trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/2020/03/challenge-447.html">Try Stampin' On Tuesday</a></b>.

Good morning! We've got a new sketch for you at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b>; it's a versatile one and you've got 2 weeks to play so I hope you'll give it a try. Here it is:<br />

I colored up the adorable "Bee Bear Sitting" and added some sparkle to the antennae, wings, and heart. I turned this into a Valentine card and I'm liking the non-traditional colors. After I had photographed the card I realized I had forgotten the embellishment in the upper left corner...shoot! I seem to make most of my cards embellishment free these days. How about you...embellishments, yes or no? Here's a close-up:<br />

My playhouse was an old chicken coop and my younger siblings were on their pony at the age of 2. It was a peaceful, wholesome life. I digress...back to the challenge! For today we would like you to create a farm themed project.<br />
<br />
I love Jodie's selection of chicks in the <b><a href="https://bugaboostamps.com/">store</a></b> and had a blast coloring this one up! I used pencils and added a bit of glitter to the balloons and to her "eyeshadow". After all, a chick has got to be fancy! Right? Here's a close-up:<br />

Does that wee birdie count as a critter? Why yes, indeed she does! I love today's theme; here in the Midwest we have plenty of snow. (The last 2 snowfalls have been the light, fluffy stuff so it's easy to scoop; I'm very thankful for that!) I've pulled some snow themed papers from my stash and colored the image to coordinate. I've used sparkly die cut snowflakes for embellishing. Here's a close-up:<br />

Good morning! It's <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/2019/12/oldie-but-goodie_12.html">Oldie But Goodie</a></b> day at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b> and I chose this cute little Troll to color. She reminds me of the Trolls I played with as a child; I guess I didn't really like to play with them, I liked to sew them clothes! Anybody else out there play with Trolls...or sew their clothes?!<br />
<br />
I've colored her to coordinate with this yummy Doodlebug patterned paper. The sketch is from <b><a href="http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/2019/12/week-593-with-mmedel-illustrations.html">Sketch Saturday</a></b> and I've embellished simply with a sentiment banner and a die cut heart.

Good morning! Monday means Anything But a Card at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b>. I've used one of my favorite Christmas images and decorated a tin filled with Hershey's Nuggets. This is such an easy item to create and have on hand...just in case you need a "little something" unexpectedly!<br />
<br />
The image is colored with pencils and I've added some die cuts for embellishing. The candy is wrapped with a strip of patterned paper and the image is attached to a band so it will easily slide on and off the tin.<br />

Good morning!

I find it hard to resist that cheerful, smiling face! I've colored the image to coordinate with this fabulous patterned paper from Doodlebug; what I like so much are the not-traditional fall colors. I have to say that I love a fall card in lavender and teal!

Good morning! It's New Release day at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the bug</a></b>! Today we are working with this adorable little guy; I've colored him in a fall palette to match the patterned paper and added a snippet of ribbon for embellishing. Here's a close-up:<br />

Good morning! We have a fun challenge for you at <b><a href="http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/">Catch the Bug</a></b>...this week we challenge you to make a Fall themed card. Sounds good, right?! We have definitely transitioned into fall here in the Midwest. I see the leaves are starting to drop; no raking for me yet, though. Our hearty Maples like to hold onto their leaves...I will be raking when it is good and chilly! LOL<br />
<br />
I like to find a sketch challenge for inspiration, but couldn't find one that went with the image I'd chosen, so I went with a simple layout. I've colored the image with pencils and added die cuts and enamel dots for embellishing. This one is "mail friendly"...nice and flat! I wanted to bring out the pretty teal in the patterned paper; what do you think of the teal scarecrow's hat and the enamel dots? Here's a close-up:<br />

We are still having really nice weather here, so I wanted to sneak in one last summer image before I officially say "good-bye to the season. I went with <b><a href="https://bugaboostamps.com/products/bugkidzbeach-kidz-beach?_pos=2&_sid=cd4e57526&_ss=r">Kidz Beach</a></b>. Isn't she adorable? I've colored her with pencils to coordinate with the patterned papers. The sketch is from a past <b><a href="http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com/">Sketch Saturday</a></b> challenge and I've used some die cuts and enamel dots for embellishing. Here's a close-up:<br />
