Baby Dinosaur


I made this card for my grandsons 1st birthday.  It is coming up at the beginning of August so I thought I better get on it.  This adorable dinosaur came from Jo Kavanagh Designs on Etsy.  He is part of a set called Dinosaurs.  They are all so cute it was hard to pick which one to use.  This is the first one out of this set I have colored up.  Thanks for stopping by today.

Reindeer Trio


Happy Day 7 of the Bugaboo Christmas in July party.  Today was a color challenge and we used the movie Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.  The image below was given to us for free just for the challenge.  I printed it off twice and colored Rudolph on the second image.  Then he is popped up to make him stand out more.  The holly and berries are from a Sizzix die.  Thanks so much for stopping by today.

White Christmas

It's day 6 over at the Bugaboo Christmas in July party.  Today we had a photo of a very white Christmas and the movie "White Christmas" as a theme.  I used part of the image Christmas Tree Row, I only used one of the trees as you can see.  The rest got cropped out.  I used my Copic markers to color the tree then used glitter on top to give it the effect of being outside in winter.  There is nothing like seeing all the trees so beautiful after new fallen snow.  Thanks for stopping by today.
I would like to submit this card into these challenges:
Bugaboo Day 6 - Photo and movie "White Christmas"

Cowboy Ralphie

This is my card for Day 5 of the Bugaboo Christmas in July party.  This might not look like a Christmas card but....the challenge was to make something funny and use one of the movies as a theme.  I chose the movie "A Christmas Story".  Remember Ralphie?  You can see by the bottom picture why I chose the "Cowboy Howdy" as my image with the famous quote from the movie mom.  "You'll shoot your eye out Ralphie!"  This was her answer to Ralphie wanting a Red Rider BeBe gun for Christmas. I have always loved this movie and it has always been so much fun watching it with my kids.  A Christmas favorite around our house.

Bugaboo Day 5 - Funny and "A Christmas Story" movie theme

Navy Nativity


Today starts the big Christmas in July week for Bugaboo Stamps.  I always  have a good time participating in all the fun for the week.  For the first challenge they gave us three movies to pick from.  We needed to make a card using one of the three movies.  I choose "A Charlie Brown Christmas".  My card represents the part in the movie where Linus recites the Christmas story from the Bible.  I used one of the stamps from the A Kid's View Nativity Set.  The paper I choose had a beautiful navy color and I just had to bring that out.  As you can see by the picture I used gold mirrored paper.  I could use some tips on how to photograph that and not get the glare.  Thanks for stopping by.

I would like to submit this card into these challenges:
Catch the Bug - A Charlie Brown Christmas (Linus telling the Christmas story from the Bible)
Crafty Cardmakers - Christmas
