Bah! Humbug! Challenge 2


This week the gals at Bah!Humbug! asked us to use our new or nearly new stash of stuff so I felt compelled to attempt something with the new Copic air brush system and compressor Santa brought. (Don't laugh Sandi, (she's the PRO at this!) I know you can barely see the airbrushing, and I KNOW you can't see the Perfect Pearls I put on and sealed with hairspray, but hey, it's a start. LOL) It took me over a year ro try my BIA so I'm doing way better here. I used one of my bazillion new Cuttlebug folders. The stamp is also new, purchased after Christmas from Whiff of Joy called Uru and Candycane that I got ON SALE from Stamp and Create and the paper is also some of my new SEI Winter Song, ALSO purchased AFTER Christmas. See why I love this new challenge Blog so much! LOL the snowflakes are Jolee and the peelie was sent from a friend from the Cricut mb. Not sure if it was B-bug or Izzy but thank you again. Sorry for the short post. I'm scramblin' to finish my DT cards and get ready for my trip to CHA. I'm leaving Friday morning...EARLY!

  9. Hi donna,
    Ooooh I love this. The white card with the fabulous embossing is stunning. The image is fab - I've thought about an air brush for my Copics but it's a bit too expensive just now.

  13. Donna this is sooo cute - I adore those funny little Elfish people. I got mine just a little before Christmas - too late to make any cards but too early to get them in the sale - bah!!

    Hope you're keeping well. It's freezing here - roll on summer!!

    Hugs,

  15. Well Donna - what can I say?
    You took our challenge brief and really ran with it combining loads of new and nearly new stash to produce a beautiful card. I'm still a novice with Promarkers (always was a slow starter LOL!) so couldn't even contemplate airbrushing techniques yet - well done to you.
    I ordered that embossing folder as part of a set and they arrived today - can't wait to have a play with them.
    Thank you for playing along with us at Bah! Humbug! this week.

    Luv'n'Stuff
