Eiyiyi! One more to go after this and I'll have completed all of the fun themes for the week in the Bugaboo 'Tis the Season for Holiday Chaos Challenges. The Day 4 theme is Ugly Holiday Sweater, so I picked sweater number 2 with the prompts Glitter, 3 Buttons and Ribbon.
I've used the cute, hmmm... I can't seem to find these guys in the shop. Must be an oldie, but I've colored them with Copics and Stickled their icy little faces and some of the flakes. The 3 buttons are from Recollections and I tied a thin ribbon through the top one because I wasn't sure the silver webby ribbon would show up in the pic. This one was hard to photograph.
Okay, I'm catching up. This is my 2nd post of the day and it's just 7:00 am. YAY, Me! This tag is for Day 3 in the Bugaboo week long Christmas Chaos Event with the theme, Bring on the White Elephant Gifts. You know, we go to our friends' house on Christmas Day and actually DO have to bring White Elephant Gifts. Last year I got a set of white leather and fur handcuffs... Ummmm... Anyway, you can make type of gift packaging, etc, and since everybody needs Christmas tags, that's what I made.
I've used the adorable Sign it Chibi Reindeer. I colored him with Copics and fussy cut around the bottom and sides enough so I could insert it in a Stitched Tags Die from Gina Marie. Added another tag layer and clipped the ribbon with a mini reindeer clothespin.
I'm also adding this to the Simon Says Wednesday Stamp Wrap it Up Challenge.
It's the last day for the Bugaboo Holiday Chaos Event and, as I said, I'm playing catch up and going wherever the spirit takes me to get them all in. This is for Day 5. Smile for the Camera. I've used the RETIRING AKV Christmas Tree and popped her inside a digital Christmas Photo Frame from Iralamija, then colored her with Copics and a gold gel pen. The sentiment is also computer generated and I've added some holly sprigs from Recollections. Gotta get moving, I still have 3 more to go!
I'm more than a bit behind for the fun Bugaboo 6 Day Holiday Challenge and am no longer trying to go in order. Today is day 6, What the Fruitcake?, a color challenge.
I've used the pre colored version of Cat Topper Christmas and changed the color of the blue birds by pasting a white circle over them digitally and coloring them yellow manually with Copics after printing. The snowflake digi paper behind is from We Are 3. I didn't manage to eliminate the blue snowflakes, but there's not that much blue so I think I did okay with the colors.
I hope to do the rest of the days tomorrow. Too many hops going and I was gone both yesterday and today. Eiyiyi!
I'm also entering this in the Outlawz Twisted Thursday AG Challenge, the SUYP Meowy Christams Challenge, and 2 Crafty Critter Crazies AG w/critter.
Elzabet was going stir crazy at home so she went with me today. This is for Day 5 of the Elf Antics at DL.Art.
I'm beginning to forget how many days we have left in the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, but it sure is fun! (ohohhh, only two counting today!) So much going on because of the holidays I've not done as well as I'd hoped, but yesterday I was thrilled to come home from my hair appointment to find out I'd won a FLASH prize from Super Sponsor Dina Kowal Creative. Thanks so much!
My tag today was cut with Sponsor Gina Marie arched stitched tag dies, who I first encountered right here in one of the Coffee Hops. WooHoo! The cup was cut and stamped with the Latte Love set from Lil' Inker I'd won in a previous Hop. It was stamped in Memento tuxedo black with the coffee stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa and overstamped with Stazon Opaque White. I've colored a bit with Copics and added epoxy holly, glitter gingerbread men from JoLee's and a chipboard sign from Recollections. The ribbon across the top is from my stash and the red and white twine is from Hop Sponsor DL.Art.
The design was based on a previous sketch from the Outlawz Wednesday Sketch challenge that DT member Bonnie used. I'm also adding this to the Simon Says Wednesday Wrap it Up Challenge,
Elzabet is so excited that she wanted us to put our Santa's plate and cup out already, with the tag in place, just so he knows it's for him. I'm adding this to Day 5 in the 12 Day Elf Antics event at DL.Art.
This is picture 3 of Day 4 of Elf Antics at DL.Art. Upon further exploration, Elzabet found a big striped horse and decided to climb up and take a ride. Elzabet loves stripes. See her socks? I guess elves from the North Pole have never seen a zebra before.
Here's my second pic for day 4 of Elf Antics at DL.Art. Elzabet peeked in the cabinet that Howard was hanging from and spied a ??? What the heck is that, anyway? Elzabet had no idea, except that it's good for climbing.
Day 4 of Elf Antics at DL.Art finds Elzabet looking for other elves around the house. Here she meets Howard. "Whatcha doin'?", she asks. "Just hangin' around", Howard replied.
Elzabet knew she couldn't care for the little elves by herself so she handed them off to Mrs. Santa. If anyone could get them to talk, she could. The little guy has already claimed the teddy in her pocket. Bye for now, says Elzabet with a tear in her eye.
I'm linking this up to the DL.Art Elf Antics Event for Day 3. Come join the fun! You don't even have to have an elf. You can win by just commenting.
They're FREE, they're FREE! Elzabet has saved the day and freed the little elves from captivity. She doesn't know their names as they are too traumatized to speak. All they want are hugs.

I think I'm going to stop trying to count the days here, because I seem to be all over the map with crafting and can't seem to keep track. It really doesn't matter anyway, because I'm having fun seeing coffee makes and visiting sponsors so here's another for the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop using Gnome 1 from Super Sponsor Limited Runs Stamps. Nikki has a whole slew of coffee and tea themed digis, including a gnome with a cup already in his hand, but I added a cup of cocoa brad for this little guy. I colored him with Copics and fussy cut and popped him on some "quilty" looking DP from an old DCWV stack.
I changed the "Ho Ho Ho" on the dimensional sticker sentiment by by JoLee's to "Ho Co Coa" using epoxy letters.
I'm also playing in the Elf Antics 12 Day Event at DL.Art and this is for Day 3. Elzabet is in search of other elves and found these two trapped in a cage by a vicious gnome (not the one on the card above. LOL). Can she save them?
I'm trying to play along with the Bugaboo Christmas Event, 'Tis the Season for Awkward Holiday Chaos, and I'm already a day behind, but fortunately you have all week to play. Day 2 is a sketch. You can read all about the event HERE.
I've had a really bad day and it's running late so most of this was done digitally. I've used the precolored version of Crabby Dog twice, flipped one of them and added digital frames and drop shadows. I colored the center image, Make it Snappy Meowy Christmas with my Copics. Since there was already a sentiment in the middle, I used epoxy dots at the bottom right. Digital paper is from Iralamija.
I'm also adding this to 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Dec AG /w Critter, the DL.Art December Linky Challenge, Dream Valley #192 Christmas, the SUYP Dec Meowy Christmas Challenge and the Outlawz Twisted Thursday AG.
I'm also playing in the DL.Art 6th Annual Elf Antics with a Twist Challenge Day 2 You can read all about the event HERE. 12 days of prizes and you don't even have to have an elf. But I do, so lucky you get to meet my elf Elzabet. She's decked for Christmas and loves her special flair button pin she got from DL.Art. Now she's decided it's time for her to learn to ride her trike. Isn't she cute?
