Happy St. Patrick's Day to Ewe



Good morning, it's Oldie But Goodie Thursday at Catch the Bug! 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 Try Stampin' On Tuesday. I've embellished with some die cuts and black enamel dots. Here's a close-up:

St. Patrick's Day...With a Pop of Pink



Good morning! It's Freebie Friday at Catch the Bug...today's freebie is the lovely Stella! I must say she looks a bit salty; pretty sure I wouldn't try to pinch her!

I've colored Stella with pencils and accented the shamrocks with glitter. I added some enamel dots for embellishing and then decided they were a "no". Note to self: Do not push so hard, because once they are stuck, they are stuck! So, enamel dots it is! Here's a close-up:

Sketch Saturday #403



Good morning sketch fans!  We have a fun new sketch for you along with a new sponsor...Simon Says Stamp!  Here's our sketch:


I realized that St. Patrick's Day was almost here and I had yet to make any cards!  How could that be?  I whipped out one of my favorite characters...Changito!  (I use a lot of digis and I have to say that it was fun to break out the ink and actually stamp an image!)  The image is colored with pencils and I've added some subtle glitter to the shamrocks.  I've done some simple layering and embellished the card with a row of brads...I like how the black "pops" against the green!  (When I was uploading this, I was wondering if I should have went with a white card base?  What do you think?)  Here's a close-up of the sparkle:


Image/Sentiment: Stampendous
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Signo Black Gel Pen
Paper: PTI Stamper's Select, New Leaf, and True Black CS, Lawn Fawn Patterned Paper

I went with a fun sentiment...love the way it fills the image panel.  The shamrock is colored with pencils and I've added a touch of glitter for embellishing; the fun paper is from my stash.  I like how this one turned out...clean and simple!

Lucky Birdbrain Chick


Good morning!  It's time for a new challenge from the ladies at Ruby's Rainbow; for this fortnight Jennifer has chosen our challenge and she would like to see "Anything Green".  Sounds good!

Since St. Patrick's day is right around the corner, I decided to go with Lucky Birdbrain Chick; the image is colored with pencils and I've added a lot of glitter so it is nice and sparkly.  I pulled out a past From The Heart Stamps sketch and the twist that week was monochromatic so that was perfect for R.R. theme!  I did add just a splash of pink for color.  Here's the sketch:

So Lucky...to have you in my life.


Good morning...Happy St. Patrick's Day!  I've got a card to share using Faith's newest image and this week's From the Heart Stamps sketch.  We now have a weekly twist with our sketches...this week it is "Monochromatic".  I'm going for monochromatic with a splash of color....  LOL  Actually I was already working on a card that was monochromatic and then Faith put this adorable image in the shop and I decided to start all over.  I thought this Birdbrain would be cute with a splash of pink on her belly so I just went with it....

Lucky Shamrock


Good morning!  I have a card to share using the adorable Hamlet PigWit, who is From the Heart Stamps March Stamp of the Month.  This set comes with 2 versions; the one I have used today and one with a butterfly and daffodils...both are adorable!

If you played along with last month's progressive challenge, you received this image for free.  If not, there is still time to play along....  You can purchase the image in the shop or if you spend $10 in the shop, you can enter THINKSPING to receive it free.  If you play along this month, you will automatically receive the April image for free.  Sounds good, right?  Right!

I have used the Mojo Monday sketch and kept it clean and simple.  Hamlet is colored with pencils; I have tried to color him as I remember the pigs when I was growing up on the farm.  They aren't really white, but they are not pink either...just a hint of blush is how I would describe them.  I've added just a touch of glitter to a few of the shamrocks and coated the die cut shamrock with glitter.  I like how this simple sketch lets Hamlet shine!

Monochromatic Green....


with a Pop of Color!  Good morning!  We have a new challenge for you at Ruby's Rainbow; for this fortnight I got to choose the challenge and since St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, I went with "Monochromatic Green with a Pop of Color".

I went with one of my favorites...Bugaboo's Stella!  I just love her sass...I sure don't think I would pinch her!  LOL  She is colored with pencils...do you see her pretty raspberry lipstick?  I took my "pop" of color from that and added some raspberry matting...I kept the layout simple otherwise.

Better Late Than Never....


Hello there!  We made a last minute trip out of town yesterday, so I didn't get this card posted.  I think this little Changito image is so cute...I love his tooth!

Changito is colored with pencils; his eyes are dotted with a gel pen and the shamrock is covered with a subtle glitter.  I used an embossing folder to add a bit of texture to the 2 green cardstock panels, and added some black brads and grosgrain ribbon for embellishing.  I like how this one turned out!

Note: I am wondering if there might be something wrong with me....  It seems I am only motivated to work with Changito these days!  I'm sure this phase will pass, so please bear with me.  (Wink!)

Tuesday Morning Sketches #135


Good morning (again!)  It's time for another fun sketch from the gang at Tuesday Morning Sketches.  I realized St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, so I thought I should get busy and make some cards.  I used one of my favorite standbys...Changito!

Changito is colored with pencils; his eyes are accented with a black gel pen and I added a touch of glitter to his 4 leaf clover.  I like the contrast of the Kraft and distressed edges with the crisp white of the image panel and the sparkly glitter and dew drops.  I actually did a bit of surgery on my card...when it was done, it just didn't look quite right to me.  I extended the horizontal striped panel...afterwards I thought it looked so much better.  Funny how something so small can make such a difference!  Sometimes you really need to make those small adjustments to make the sketch work....

Creative Card Crew Challenge: Humor


Good morning!  Today brings another fun challenge, for this fortnight, from the Creative Card Crew.  Our sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps (love them!) and our challenge is humor....  Yay!  How fun is that?  I must confess that I had a hard time choosing an image...because I like so many of them.  In fact, I filled my cart and purchased a few!  (Wink!)

I chose Margaret to work with today...maybe I like her so much because she's a nurse like I am....  Anyway, she cracks me up!  She's colored with pencils and I added some glitter to her coins and buckles.  The foam of her green beverage is coated with carrara marble glitter for a bit of emphasis.  I used some black ribbon and Bella Dots for embellishing.  The sketch is from Stella Says Sketch.

TMS#83


Good morning! It's Tuesday, so that means Melissa has another fun sketch for us...check it out here at the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog.
I decided to go with my buddy Changito; I just love this image of him with a clover. He's colored with pencils and the clover has a bit of glitter on it, so it has a very nice but subtle sparkle. I used PTI ric rac dies for the black trim, and added a trio of Bella Dots for embellishing. For some reason, the green center panel doesn't appear to be the same shade of green as the DP, but I have the card sitting here and the match is perfect. Does anybody know how/why the different papers would photograph differently? I have noticed this before on occasion....

Fluffles Lucky Clover

Good Sunday morning to you! Today I have my card for the Corrosive Challenge Blog; the theme this week was "lucky". Since St. Patty's Day is right around the corner, I wanted to go with that theme. Click here to see the other cards by the DT. Perhaps you would like to play along!

I just love this paper. I bought it to make prize card kits for a swap I was hosting. It's double sided and has the most beautiful golden shimmer. I wish I had more, but all I have left is small scraps. I colored the buckle on the hat metallic gold and I used the antique gold brads to try and bring out the shimmer.

Image: Stampendous
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: PTI Stamper's Select and Pure Black, Reminisce DP
Embellies: Barbara Trombley's Art Glitter in "Angel Dust", Spare Parts Brads
Extras: Prismas/Goo Gone, Tim Holtz Piercing Ruler, Foam Tape

I am not sure why, but in my world, Fluffles is always white! I have seen cards in the SCS gallery where people have made him gray or orange and he is so cute in color. Maybe some day I will step out of the box....

I hope you have a great day! Don't forget to set your clock ahead!
