Gone Fishing

Hi everyone, can you believe it this month is just flying by so fast and before we know it will be Christmas again.  Oh my gosh!!

I have been creating again and this time I would like to share with you a little corner bookmark I have made. There are so many wonderful tutorials out there for these just had to make one.  I have used from Bizzy Becs Blue Butterfly digi range "Cody Fishing" and you can find him right here.  It still fits in perfectly with this months challenge "For a Male with a tag".    The Bookmark is perfect for someone who is an avid reader and doesn't like to dog ear the page.



I have also used spellbinder dies Labels 2 and Basic Banners both are also available to purchase through Becs online store here.

Also don't forget there is still plenty of time to enter this months challenge and be in the running to win the fabulous stamp from Wild Rose Studios Christmas Range "Bella with Sledge".

Thanks for looking, happy creating.

September Challenge - Bizzy Becs

Hi everyone and welcome, can you believe it - September already - the year is just flying by.  The new month welcomes another new challenge at Bizzy Becs and this month the challenge is:

"Create a Male card with a Tag"
theme by DT Marilyn

The prize for this month's challenge is this gorgeous stamp from Wild Rose Studios Christmas Range -Bella with a Sledge, so adorable.




For my card this month the theme was at the perfect time for Fathers Day and I made it on an easel card which are so easy to make and a favourite of mine.  



I have used two Magnolia stamps for the card one an oldie from the Sweet Rainbow Collection 2011 "Cool Edwin" and the car is from  the 2012 Summer Memories collection and is called "Edwins Oldmobile".  Whilst these are no longer available in Bec's Store there are some fabulous Magnolia Stamps available in stock and on pre-order here.  I have also used Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Ovals which are available in store here.  



I have coloured the images with Copic Markers which can be preordered in store also here.  The rust technique on the car is a new one I have recently learnt and have to say I just love the effect.  

recipe:
Stamps:        Magnolia
Paper:           Kaiser 61/2" pad "Attitude"
Colouring:     Copic Markers
Tags:            Small premade Tag and Stampin Up Jewellery Tag Punch
other:            String, and screw head brads from  Making Memories 


Thanks from dropping by and hope that you can join us this months at Bizzy Becs.

Happy Crafting
