Happy Pawther's Day

Today we start a new challenge at Catch the Bug and the theme is "The Man, The Myth The Legend".  Now I had my Father's Day card done so I made a card for my daughter's partner.  And since they have a dog together I used, Guy Walking Dog and made my own sentiment. She loved it!
On a sad note for the Catch the Bug DT, I just want to let you know that earlier this week my fellow DT member Julie Temple passed away from surgery complications. She will be greatly missed for her wonderful creations and sweet personality. Hugs and prayers go to her family.

Baby it's COLD outside

Well it's true!!! Today we have a high of -3 with some windchills that are horrible.  And tomorrow will be worse.  So it's dangerously cold.  We got another 8 inches of snow yesterday.  Today it's a new release day at Catch the Bug and I have this image of Winter Birdhouse and a sentiment from TLC, Create.  I layered the snowflake and added Stickles.

You're BOO-tiful

I was so fortunate to win $25 credit from MFT Camp Create so I was so excited and had to order this wonderful Halloween stamp set that just came.  I also got some more Distress Oxide inks.  I did some masking to make the background with a full moon and a stencil with a star background.  I heat embossed the white sentiment.  I also layered the pumpkins and frog for a 3-D effect.
