A Very Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas my Kitty Bee friends! For my last 2017 DT spotlight, I created a very different kind of holiday card.  This sweet, little blow-fish dawned a Santa hat to deliver cheer to a family friend this year. 


Images Used: Blowfish

Products I used: Neenah and Stampin Up card stock, Copics, Far Far Hill digi paper and Wink of Stella.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to take a peek at my card. I will see you here again on the 1st Wednesday of each month to share more Kitty Bee Designs projects moving forward. Don't forget to join in this weeks challenge for your chance to win some great prizes!!

Merry Penguin Christmas

Hello my friends!

Just wanted to stop my packing for a min. to share a few pictures with you. This is one of my most recent journals for a swap. The fun thing about this is... I made my own book cloth and covered book board to make the cover. It was easy and so much fun, so now, the sky is the limit for fabric covers.


The journal is 7" tall and 5" wide with a 2" spine. It's actually suppose to be a December Daily journal to track your busy, family filled month.


I decided to use a more retro color pallet which fits me sooo well. I adore everything mid-century!


The fabric I have had in my stash for years. I thought it was perfect for the two kits I used.


I used kits from Ephemoire's Peppermint Stick and Calico Collage's Joyful Christmas. I thought they worked nicely together.


All the vintage ephemera I used for the journaling inserts I found during Pinterest searches.

 

The mini clothes pins and charms I purchased from Walmart and Hobby Lobby. The lace pockets are lace from a dress I purchased at Goodwill.

I hope my swap partner likes this cutie. I know I had a lot of fun creating it. Now, I'm off to pack a few more boxes. Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks for stopping by!

It's been way tooo long

I have been very busy making lovely junk journals. I have been participating in swaps, but moving forward I will be creating to build stock for my shop and 2018 craft fairs.

Here are the covers of a few of my creations. I will be able to record and up load videos very soon.











These are three of my fav journal covers so far. I will get my camera rig set up and shoot flip thru's soon, so keep an eye out for the post.

I'm Just Batty for You!

Hello again my friends!

I'm back to share with you my card for the rand new challenge at Kitty Bee Designs Aloha Friday Challenges. This challenge is all about the kiddos. I decided to make this card to send to my youngest kiddo. He's 13 and yes, he still lives at home, but he loooves getting mail. I thought I'd pop this into the USPS and let him have a little happy mail.

Image used: Pumpkin Carving Set

For my card, I cut a black cardstock base and ran some gray cardstock thru my Bug Shot with an embossing folder. I inked the embossed image with some dark blue ink. I added a few twinkling stars using my Gelly Roller. I think I over did the Wink of Stella on the little dude, he's sparkles like a Vampire ~ lol. The moon is cut from yellow card stock and everything is adhered with foam dots. And I added a wee little bow made of lime and white striped bakers twine. I used the bat from Just Me Digital Stamps (linked below picture.)

So like always with these great Kitty Bee challenges, we are going to give away some killer prizes! All you have to do is to stop by  Kitty Bee Designs Aloha Friday Challenges and add your creation to the mix. Make sure you create a project with a kiddo in mind. You have 2 weeks to get your project loaded.


Above you can see the two wonderful sponsors for this 2 week challenge period. Make sure you stop by and add your project, you could win a really groovy gift certificate! Check out the details here.

And here's one more look at my card. Thanks for stopping by!

You had me at Aloha

Hello again friends! Kitty Bee Design Team spotlight time!!  I created a cute little card today. For some reason every time I see a narwhal my heart smiles. I think it's because when my mom was alive, she collected unicorns. Hope this card gives you a reason to smile too. 


Images Used: Narwhal Love

Help Me! I'm an ADDICT!

I simply cannot stop making junk journals! I have been making them for swaps on a FB group called Junk Journal Junkies. If you even think these may give you some joy, you should check out the group. There are some VERY talented ladies over there sharing their creations. Very inspiring!















This pretty gal is a denim themed swap journal. The last image above is my attempt as some cheeky humor - "Jean". I'm sure you can see what I did there. =)

The day the swap is complete and my happy mail package arrives is really a very delightful day. I love seeing what my partner created. Always ideas to see and then apply to my next journal. And I have to say, seeing my little journals lined up on the shelf - it's yummy!  See??


Well, guess I'm off now. I am working on a few exciting journals. One for Christmas and two for Halloween. One of the Halloween is a a Insane Asylum theme. =) Tickled!

A Fairy-tale come true!

I lost track of time ~ but I'm back with a brand new challenge at Kitty Bee Designs! It's all about the fantasy or fairy tales. I have a thing for witches, so I decided to you this sweet images from MMedel at Etsy.

 Image used: Witch

I also ADORE Halloween. It's by far my fav season of the year. I fell in love with Maria's pumpkins and simply had to uses these three little guys. These could be the 3 little pumpkins sitting on the fence...

Image used: Pumpkins

These little guys come in large line art set full of wonderful seasonal images ~ You simply must check it out! I decided to super size the images before I printed them. I wanted to add them to pictures frames to place on my bookshelf. All all honesty, I doubt I'l remove them once the season changes!

Now, on to the details about the new challenge. Like I said, your projects must feature something fantasy or fairy-tale. If your project is selected you can win fabulous gifts from our two sponsors: MMedel Illustrations and All Dressed Up.



Make sure you head over and look at all the great DT inspirational projects and while you are there, why not add your project to the mix! Good luck and I hope to see you there!
