Recipe challenge at Catch the Bug

Hello and happy Saturday!

This week we have a recipe challenge at Catch the Bug: 1 image, 2 patterned papers, 3 embellishments. This is the card I made:


I used Kidz Pug and colored it with Kurecolor and Bic alcohol based markers. I cut it out. I love animals and most of my cards have one on it... I have a dog, her name is Chicky and is a Cocker Spaniel. The one in this card doesn't look like her, but I love the image, it makes me think of me and my dog.


I used some scraps patterned papers in sky blue and pink colors. I used an oval and a circle die to cut them. I placed the girl sitting on top of the circle. for the background I used a pink cardstock base.


To embellish the card I used a blue flower ribbon/lace, three little butterflies and three rhinestones.


I hope you like it, feel inspire and come to play in our challenge this week.

Color challenge at Catch the Bug

Hello!
I am late to show this card. My mom's computer crashed badly yesterday, something burned inside (because the smell) and it is totally dead and we can't, for now, recover the files inside :(   We are using an old computer now, it is very slow and sometimes freezes, so I hope to be able to post this new card:


Our challenge this week is a color challenge (see picture). Purples and green!!!!!! I really like this color combo, and you?


I used  Hedgehog Flower and colored it with Kurecolor and Bic markers- I cut it with a circle die (Sizzix) and used the same shape for the purple mat. (I am not really happy how it looks).


I used some patterned paper from my mom's stash and purple cardstock.


To embellish it I used purple baker's twine and a lilac heart button.


I hope you like it and feel inspired to play with us this week.

The patterned papers are from my mom's stash and I used a combination of purple ones.

New Challenge at Catch the Bug

Hello!
Today I am not showing you a card, today I am showing you a "desk organizer", this week at Catch the Bug our theme is  Recycle, Upcycle or use Household item.




I used the digi "Puppy pile" and colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils. I cut it with a circle die (Sizzix) and made the same for the green cardstock mat.




I was in need of just one pice of organizer, I have many different container on my desk, but they were all spread around. To build the organizer, I used five cans, (different sizes) and a cardboard cilinder. I used two different shades of gree paper to wrap every piece and with a hot glue gun I glued them together on a cardstock base. To embellish the organizer I used scrap paper and a butterfly punch.



I hope you like it and feel inspire to recycle, upcycle, re-use something and come and play with us.

Anything goes at Catch the Bug

Happy Saturday everyone!
Today a new challenge is starting at Catch the Bug and the theme is ANYTHING GOES, a favorite, right? This is my card for this week as GDT:



The image is Kidz Punky Topper and I colored it with Koh-i-noor acuarelable pencils. I feel very happy with the coloring. I am improving at using the brush and I can see this image looks better than others I did before :)


I cut it with a circle die (Sizzix) and did the same with the dark pink (or fuchsia) cardstock for the mat. I also did a bigger one with a pink cardstock and used a dott embossing folder (sizzix).  The idea for the LO it's based on a sketch I saw in a blog (Paper Craft Crew Challenge #187), but reinvented it.


I used Poligrphiservis patterned paper for the lower part and I left the white cardstock base for the upper part of the card. As embellishment I used pink ribbon and made a bow (I feel so happy that I learn how to do the bows myself!).


I hope you like my card and feel inspired to play this week with us.

Since we moved to our house in the fall, we were adopted by a cat, we call her Mishi.  My mom didn't like cats before (now she really likes Mishi), that's why Mishi is not allowed at home, we builded a house outside in our yard for her (the cat, not my mom); now the cat is pregnant and I really hope to have as pet one of the kittens... Well, that's why I chose this image today. Here is a pic of Mishi, our lucky cat:

Teachers appretiation week

Hello!
This ending week was "Teachers appretiation week" in my school and I did cards for most of my teachers. They all are very simple, I love using watercolors for my backgrounds. After coloring I stamped with Memento Black Tuxedo ink pad. I punched lots of butterflies, trying to match the watercolors with cardstock (except for my teacher of History and Geography, because is a man).
Don't know the name or companies of the stamps, they are in my mom's box of stamps.

NOTE: I will submit every card in 5 different challenges, I will do only one post (this one), I am not repeating any card in the same challenge.
