It's another beautiful Bugaboo summer day and today I want to share an image called "Cat Birdbath" which I used for my Guest DT card. The theme at Catch the Bug this week is the easiest in the world -- Anything Goes! So, I want to see you playing along.
Isn't this the cutest little digi stamp? I'm not sure kitty planned on getting wet when he went sneaking around the birdbath, but he probably deserves whatever he gets! :-D
Sketch (with some slight modifications) came from Digi Darla's and this is the second time I've used it.
I colored the image with water color pencils and alcohol markers, die cut the circle and the black CS mat, then framed it with a doily (Spellbinders.) The ribbon is sparkly and comes from Really Reasonable Ribbon. All the flowers are Prima. Clean and simple design with flower embellishments. The card came together pretty quickly once the coloring was done.
Challenges:
Creative Craft -- Tweet, Tweets
Flourishes -- Summer
Jackson's Digital Expressions -- Anything goes w/ optional flowers
LEJ Designs -- Fabulous flowers
Paper Pretties -- Summer fun
Scrapbook Sisters -- Use only 1 stamp on your card
Shopping Our Stash -- Triple Threat: ribbon, die cut doily, flowers
The Paper Girls -- Colors from the photo inspiration
Don't forget that Bugaboo's "Christmas in July" starts in just another week and there will be ooodles of games, mini-challenges, and prizes. I hope you're going to play along as much as possible. I'm going to use it as an excuse to finally get a start on my Christmas cards. Hope we see you at our Anything Goes challenge this week. Happy Stamping. NanaConnie
