Under The Weather?

Happy Saturday!

Are you ready for a new challenge, today, at Catch The Bug?! You'd better be, because its that time, again! We had a huge amount of entries, last week, so hopefully we'll have just as many this week! I'm sure you're anxious to hear about this week's theme, though, aren't you? Since there are a lot of activities going on, right now, to raise breast cancer awareness, how about a theme that goes hand in hand with it? Our theme, this week, is "Think Pink." Of course, your project doesn't have to have a breast cancer theme - It can be anything that has the color pink. Easy enough, right?  Come link up with us - We can't wait to see what you create! There are lots of digi prize packages up for grabs, from Bugaboo Stamps, to be won, so hurry and play along with us, for your chance to win!

I went with a get well card that could be used for anyone going through breast cancer, a child in the hospital, or just someone feeling a little under the weather. Its perfect to cheer up anyone who's feeling poorly!  My card uses the image AKV Doctor - Get Better Soon, from Bugaboo Stamps, colored with Promarkers. This fun glittered background is sure to cheer someone up! I used a strip of pink and white washi tape across the center panel. Two blue flowers with pearl centers help set ff the center panel.  I've used a pink butterfly with added glitter, in the top right corner. I used a clearstar gelly roll pen on the doctor's hammer to add some shine.

Thought You Could Use A Lift

Hello everyone! I hope you're all pulling out of the winter blues and starting to think of Spring! I think I've got  Spring Fever! It was sooo nice last weekend, and I spent a lot out time outside enjoying the nice weather.  Of course, it didn't matter that I had tons of stuff inside I needed to do - That all went out of my head once the sunshine and warm temps were here! All I could think about was finally having a break form the cold and snow.

Today is Oldie but Goodie Thursday, at Catch The Bug and, as usual, we're featuring some of the older images. Bringing them back into the spotlight to remind you how many awesome images there are to choose from in the Bugaboo Stamps store.

For more Oldie But Goodie inspiration, check out Catch The Bug - Lots of creative genius from some of my other teammates!

Anyway, I finally made it into my craft room to do some crafting and this is what I came up with for you. This card is perfect for anyone going through breast cancer, or who's just feeling down and could use a little pick me up.

My card, today, uses the image and sentiment set, Some Support - Use A Lift, from Bugaboo Stamps, colored with Promarkers. I used this fun new paper I bought, from Stampin Up.  The blue polka dotted buttons are from my stash. I threaded them with some green and white twine, to bring out the green and white in the umbrella paper.
