Bugaboo Friday Freebie

My daughter has had a rough week at work, so I thought this freebie from Bugaboo Stamps might cheer her up (never mind she is off all next week!).  This is Ruby Bubble Trouble... I colored her with copics and cut out with Lawn Fawn large stitched square die.  I used my heat gun on puffy velvet fabric marker for the soap suds, clear star jelly roll pen on the bubbles as well as glossy accents on them, the wineglass, wine bottle, spilt wine, and her glasses, and sea glass stickles for her earrings.  Bubble digi paper from Etsy, sentiment came with the image, wine charm from Charm Along, ribbon by Offray.

QKR Stampede Challenge #269 - Touch of Gold or ATG

It's time for a new challenge at QKR Stampede and this week is A Touch of Gold or Anything Goes. I chose Sleigh Bells (#24340), which I colored with copics, Christmas red stickles for his nose, gold stickles for the bells, and a mixture of flower soft/fun flock for the fur on his hat.  He is cut out with Lawn Fawn large stitched square and SB Moroccan Accents die. The layout is for Tuesday Morning Sketches #428.  The moose paper is actually wrapping paper that I found online and printed off (works perfect I think!), red snowflake paper from Recollections Christmas collection, and blue cs from Craft Smith.  The bells are from my stash that I strung on some gold thread from Stampin' Up!
