Bugboo Digital Stamps: Anything but a Card

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today I share an idea of what you can do with the

super cute scarecrow image that comes as a freebie

when you subscrabe to the newsletter of the

Catch the Bug Challenge Blog.

Here is what I did with Oz Scarecrow: 

After printing this cute image twice, I colored it with 

my Stampin'Blends. When finished I cut out the images.

The circles are punched out and letting and decorating

are all done by hand. With a piece of waxed tread and a needle

I added the circles to the scrarecrow. The middle circle

is attached to the stick with double sided tape and another

circle at the back. The stick s also fastened with a larger circle

and double sided tape behand the head of the scarecrow.

Hope you like this idea.

I was thinking to get some small pumpkins

and add the sticks in the middle and decorate my new home.

Yes, I am going to move house soon, so hopefully I have

time to keep up with all the challenges this month.

For nowm, I added these picks into a vase:

Thanks for looking,

stay safe and

keep crafting.

 

World Card Making Day 2020

Hello Crafty Friends,

As today is world cardmaking dau, I have 

of course to share a card with you.

I made this viewmaster card to count down

to the move of our new home.

For my card I used clear stampset Whimsy Town by

Funky Fossil Designs.

I also used the tulip field stencil at the botom.

As one wheel is not enough to turn 18 days, I made

another wheel that I could add later on.

Instructions:

a piece of cardstock 6x11 inch

score at 3 and 7,5 inch

a window punch 1,75 x 3/8 inch

scallop die 4,25 diameter

circle die 1 inch

velcro circles 2x

1 brad

Here you see how it looks when the card is folded open.

This is the punch I used for the opening, where

you can turn the wheel.

If you do not have a punch like this, you can

also use a circle punch.

If you do not have to change the wheel, you can just tape the back shut.

I used these velcro sticky circles for the back, so i can open it again

and change my wheel.

I added an extra panel on top for the decoration, so that needed

a hole to (1 inch cirle die). The sentiment is constructed ou of

two sentiments from the stamp set.

Thank you for looking,

stay safe and

keep crafting!

 

Bugaboo Digital Stamps: Friday Freebie

Good Morning Crafty Friends!

Here is another Friday FREEBIE for you from the

Catch the Bug Challenge Blog.

It is Pumkin Patch and I combined the image

with this cute Pumpkin Girl.(an oldie)

I colored the images with stampin'blends and cut them for

fitting the card.

The sentiment is by Create with TLC.

Some design paper for the background and a few sticky 

gemstones finished this card.

Thank you for looking,

stay safe and keep crafting.

 

National Coffee Day!

I want to share with you the coffee I like best:

This coffee comes in tubes of 10 capsules 

and just the other day, I realised I could use 

some tubes to make a card for today.

Out of the tubes I cut the coffee cups with a Tim Holtz
Sizzix die.

I made a z-fold card, so I could add lots of cups!
The background is made witgh stamps and stencils
from different comanies.


I took the sentiment "What Else"from the Nespresso site.


Here is the back of the card, where one can write 
a message. 

Thank you for looking,
enjoy your coffee,
stay safe and
keep crafting!

September Zoom Class with Michael Strong

Last night I was in a zoom class given by Michael Strong.

For him it was his morning class :-)

We made 6 cards this time. The 6th was a fun extra card!!

Here you see all the cards we made. They were fun folded cards

and below i show you the folded cards one by one.

This is a kind of lock fold. The hexagon is one of

Michael Strongs rubber stamps.

I made a mistake on the left side, so mine looks

a little different than it was supposed to look.

For this fun fold we received all the sunny paper already cut to size.

Yes, when you take part in the class, you receive all the cards  and all parts you need, ready cut at home! Wonderful!!

For this fold, Mike used  his flower stamp, that was embossed with gold embossing powder.

Great fun fold, looking like a lock fold.

I did some coffee decoration on my own account.

It is National coffee day soon (September 29) and there

will be a Coffeelovers Blog hop!

This was the surprise card. A wonderful Halloween card with: a coffee cup!! Yes, the cup is made into a monster cup by using it upside down. I love this idea.

Here a close up of the cup, with its funny googly eyes, strips of hair and yellow teeth.

And this is the last card. On the right you see the card we made in class

and on the left you see a card I made from this idea.

Another coffee idea. You find Hetty's coffee cup rubber stamp HERE.

I used a coffee bean embossing folder.

The coffee rings are a wooden stamp from Club Scrap.

The steam stamp comes with the coffee stamp in a set.

The sentiment is by Verve Stamps.

So would you like to participate in one of Michael Strong's

zoom classes? Well, the next one is on October 24.

Bugaboo Digital Stamps: Friday Freebie

Hello Crafty Friends!

Here we are with another fun FREEBIE on the

Catch the Bug Challenge Blog.

It is Ruby Chocolate - Do Not Disturb

and you find here HERE.

I had this cute design paper lying around. Everytime I touched it, but 

had not used it. This image was perfect to cut the paper up and use

it for a card. So I printed the image and the sentiment and colored

it with Stampin'Blends.

I had these golden corner stickers and I think after adding these,

the card looked very elegant.
