A Color Challenge at Catch the Bug!

It's Saturday, which means a new challenge over at Catch the Bug today! This is always a favorite among us crafters because it gives us some visual inspiration! You can choose to use the colors, the theme of the photo, the season....however this picture inspires you, we want to see it in your project!

This week's theme is a

Color Challenge
(scroll down for the photo of colors)

This week I chose to post a scrapbook layout using the colors. There are a few additional colors in my layout, I'm certain, but you can't control every DP detail, right?!
I was on a mission to use up a pile of small scraps I had. I was pleased when the pile was 98% used up after pasting the pieces all over my base card stock! Woohoo! I love using up my scraps, don't you?!

Hi, everyone!

It's Thursday.......time for a Bugaboo Stamps Oldie But Goodie day, otherwise known as OBG! I love OBG Day.....it pushes me to go back into my files of Bugaboo and use one of them AGAIN! The images that Jodie creates for her Bugaboo Stamps store are too darling to not bring out to play, don't you agree??

For my card image this week, I chose to use Bobblehead Thanksgiving Scarecrow. I have to admit, I wasn't a big fan of the Bobblehead images when I first saw them, but the Bugaboo DT was doing such wonderful things with them that I knew I had to give them a chance! I am so glad I did - I am IN LOVE! lol! Check out the rest of the Bobblehead images at the Bugaboo Store here.

Today starts a new challenge at the new SVG Challenge Blog, Cuttin' Up with Class! Thanks to all of the participants of last week's challenge, and for leaving some love on the projects that the DT created!  We loved seeing your blogs, and hope that you'll join us again this week! If you entered something into the challenge, please visit the Cuttin' Up with Class Blog on Thursday to see if you're a winner! :0) (Jani will also be contacting the winner by email).

We'd love to see what you come up with! :0)

The Cuttin' Up with Class Blog is designed for crafters that want to participate in regularly scheduled challenges that are geared toward SVG files. New challenges are on Tuesday, each week.  A free SVG cut file is provided for  you to use on a project of your choice.  It can be combined with any other challenge. The SVG cut does not have to be the focal point, as long as it is included on your project. You are free to use it along with other SVG's from individuals or other companies. Visit the Challenge Blog for your FREE SVG! Today's file is a Scarecrow SVG - perfect for the fall season that is upon us in full swing!

Here's my card that I created using this great file:

I used a Center Step Card Base for this, and added some carn stalks that I had cut from Linus' 3D Fall Cards from SVGCuts. I don't have a grass border punch, so I made grass by using my Icicle EK Success border punch for the bottom of the card. each layer is adhered to the previous with pop-dots. My sign is something I printed in PSE, and then just cut a base layer and "post" for by hand. I inked it a little bit with a brown marker. 

The Design Team has put together some great eye candy and inspiration for this weeks challenge, so be sure to check out what the talented ladies have drummed up for you! Their blogs are all linked in my side bar for you.

Don't forget to pick up the freebie so you can join in to win additional free SVG's and other goodies! :0)

Thanks so much for stopping by! I do hope you will join us each and every Tuesday for some great fun, fab SVG's and super prizes!

Happy Crafting!
