More Drippy Goo!

I really see so many different ways to use this punch.
I reminds me of water dripping, so I used it on this quick layout of my nephews in the bath. They are so cute, you just want to squeeze them!!
The photo does not really do this layout justice. You can't see that I used Glossy Accents on the title. It makes it look all shiny... like tiles. I used New Arrival for the title and embellies. I used loads of stickles on the ducks and bubbles. I also used a Fiskars border punch (but I can't remember the name of it, hee hee).
Tomorrow I will post the latest Cuttlebug Spot challenge.
Have a great night,
Marcy

Halloween...so soon?

Well, since I bought the drippy goo punch, I had to use it. Also, I needed to create a project using Amyee's (Thanks GF for the great inspiration!) sketch for the challenge over at The Cuttlebug Spot.

So... I made a couple of Halloween cards. One used the punch, the other not.
I used dingbats for both card images. Gotta love the free dingbats!!!!


To color the images I used the Magic colored Pencil Technique. I also used one of the new Cuttlebug folders, but I am not sure what the name of it is.
Here's Amyee's sketch
Here's mine.



Here I used the drippy goo punch. The spider web is from PPDU.

New Cuttlebug Folders

Hi Guys,

Have you seen all the new Cuttlebug folders? I bought mine when HSN had their scrapbooking day a couple of weeks ago. I love 'em.

This week at The Cuttlebug Spot, Nilda wanted us to use one of the new designs in our project. I decided to use the owl. Honestly, the owl is the only folder I didn't like. So I challenged myself to use it for just that reason. I actually like how it turned out. So now...maybe I don't dislike it so much. hee hee.
I cut the letters with SCAL and stickled them for some glitz.

My Kids Wedding Album Continued...AND...Blog Hop

Hi All,

We are having a blog hop over at The Cuttlebug Spot today. Our challenge is to take any of the techniques we've used so far and use it in our project. So....in continuing with my kid's wedding album, I used the "embossed sanding" technique for one of my pages. Of course, my black paper had a white core, or else I wouldn't be able to sand the color off.
Scroll down a few posts to see the cover and first pages.








Your next stop on the Blog Hop is over at Amyee's. Her work is outstanding, as are all the DT sisters. Amyee's projects are always so fresh. Have fun over there and continue on till you end up back at The Cuttlebug Spot.

Thanks for stopping by. Leave a little love if you have the chance. I do really appreciate your comments.
