Christmas Chaos has begun again at Bugaboo/Catch the Bug

 I'm so excited when this event happens at Bugaboo because it allows me to make some Christmas cards and of course use lots of penguin images!!!

Here's an overview of what's involved this week.

Play along and you could win some fabulous prizes.

Totday is the first day here's the theme:

I created a card with a penguin dressed up to be a reindeer...what a fun reindeer game!!

I used the image Little Penguin Reindeer

You can find the image HERE in the Bugaboo Shop.

The photo makes it look a little fluorescent, but it's not really..just a nice bright-ish pink.

I love using non-traditional colours for my Christmas cards, don't you?

I hope you'll play along for a chance to win some prizes and also to get a few more last-minute Christmas cards done!

Kraftin' Kimmie 15 day Kolour it Up Challenge - Day 7

I'm playing along with the Kraftin' Kimmie 15 Day Kolour It Up Challenge (on Facebook)

Here's what I koloured for Day 7

this is an older Rubber Stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie
by artist Cheryl Grant.

Don't you just love it.

I'll be kolouring something from Kraftin' Kimmie again tomorrow, so please be sure to pop on back.

Kraftin' Kimmie 15 Day Kolour It Up Challenge - Day 1

I'm playing along with the Kraftin' Kimmie 15 Day Kolour It Up Challenge (on Facebook)

Here's what I kreated / koloured for Day 1...

I used this cute penguin from the SHAKE IT UP stamp set which can be found HERE on the Kraftin' Kimmie website.

I just love to colour penguins in non-traditional colours, and of course for this one I chose my favourite colour (pink).  I embssed the background with a snowflake embossing folder and added a few rhinestones and punched out snowflakes (yes from an old punch in my stash - before die cutting was popular).

I hope you like it.  I'll be kolouring something from Kraftin' Kimmie again tomorrow, so please be sure to pop on back.

Day 1 - Holy Florry of Chaos

Use Snow on your creation

I used the image Winter Penguin Trio

I found this great sparkle/embossed cardstock in my stash and it was perfect for this snowy-glittery card.
