Guess What Lovies??

I have copied a post from the Kitty Bee Designs webpage ~ we need more team members!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kitty Bee Designs DT Call

This is a minimum 4-month commitment beginning September 2017.  You are, however, welcome to jump in as soon as you are ready.  We are a VERY laid back team and know you will have a lot of fun with us and feel very welcomed by our fellow DT members!  

Our challenges post every other Friday and run for a full 2 weeks.  The in-between Friday is a mid-inspiration post day.  

Requirements:

o     Create 2 projects a month:

•      1 challenge project following the challenge theme to be shared on the Challenge blog.  This project needs to be uploaded to our private DT blog (2) days before your assigned post (challenge or mid-inspiration) goes live.  Our challenges run every 2 weeks so there may be a month where you will be required to create 2 projects. 

•      1 spotlight project showcasing an image from Kitty Bee Designs per month to be showcased on the KBD blog.  You will schedule your own spotlight project on the KBD blog, so have a bit more flexibility with the timing of this one, as long as you post it in the AM of your posting day.  The only requirement for this project is to use a KBD image.  Other than that, anything goes.
• 
  
• o   Participate in new-release parties/blog hops for Kitty Bee Designs when applicable.

o    Have a Facebook account (this is where our DT chats and where I post our files and sponsor images).

o    Have a personal blog to post about each new challenge/mid-challenge inspiration, and link back to the Aloha Friday Challenges. 

o    Post your DT badge on your blog’s sidebar.

o    Comment on your assigned numbers. (no more than 2)
o   Vote on the DT top picks at the end of each challenge. (every 2 weeks)

o    Promote Kitty Bee Designs wherever you can!  Social media encouraged but not required.

Benefits:

o     You will be provided with a wide range of images from KBD and other sponsors to work with and use not only for our challenges, but on projects for yourself and other challenges.

o     Your name and blog link will be displayed on the Kitty Bee Blog.

How to apply:

Email DT coordinator kel: KittyBeeChallenges@gmail.com with:

1.   Your name & location

2.   Your blog address plus any social media links you'd like to share and/or use regularly.

3.   A list of your current DT responsibilities

4.    (3) of your best recent creations (either uploaded to the email or linked to your blog) 

This DT call is open to everyone - international applicants welcome, no previous design team experience necessary.  The call will stay open through August 5th or until all spots have been filled.

Georgia Peach?

I am here with another FUN 2 week challenge at Kitty Bee Aloha Friday Challenges! The challenge theme is.....animals! Squeeee - who doesn't adore animals? I have to share a story with you. My hubby and I have a dear friend who lives in Canada. I call him my Canadian Porn Star, reason being, the 1st time I ever met him he had on a t-shirt that said "Porn Star" (in very 1970's font I must add.) He calls me his Georgia Peach. Why am I telling you this??

Image used: Peaches

Because silly, this adorable little elephant is a digital image from Bugaboo and it's called Peaches! LOL So now you know why my little elephant is so special and I believe I'll mail this card to Adam. Enough about my porn star and on to the card deets. =)  I used digital pattern papers with Neenah and Bazzill cardstock, Hobby Lobby ribbon / glitter brads and Copic markers and of course my beloved Wink of Stella!

So, don't forget to check out Kitty Bee Designs blog for more DT inspiration and then click on the challenge tab on the top of the page to enter your project for a chance to win prizes from these sponsors.

I'm back and oh so excited!

Welcome to Maxx & Boo today! Glad you are here. I am happy to share with you my 1st 2017 Kitty Bee Design Team Spotlight. The 1st Wednesday of each month I will be here to share a project using a Kitty Bee Design image. I created a journaling pocket for a scrapbook page or a junk journal. I haven't decided which I'll use this in, but it's so cute I am sure to use it soon. 

Images Used: Sunflower Bun

I cut brown cardstock down to 9 x 4 and scored then folded it up at 2.75". I used eyelets strung with twine to make a pocket. I added digital images to create journal cards and pages (tucked inside a mini petal envelope.) I added a sweet, glittery "smile" die cut. I colored my bunny using my Copics and added a bit of Wink of Stella to his sunflower petals.

Make sure you click here and check out all the wonderful DT projects. I also hope to see you here again as I share with you many more Kitty Bee Designs moving forward.

Little Spring Birds

I adore hearing all the little birds each spring. It simply makes my heart smile, or should I have said soar?? I like to leave my windows open to listen to their calls too.

I got lucky this month and have been able to create a few projects featuring these little guys. I will share one with you now and once I've finished my other project I'll share that one too.

This card was created for a swap I am in at SCS with these two swaps in mind. It was like the perfect month that they all were the same theme!

I used cardstock from Michaels, the pattered paper is old Penny Black. I used a deckled rectangle die to cut out Copic colored digi image from Sami Stamps. The tag is a retired SU small oval whale tail punch. The sentiment is SU too. The twine and pink bling are Hobby Lobby. And I added a bit of Wink of Stella to the pink spots.

         Challenges:
               Scribbles ~ #51 Birds of a Feather
               Kitty Bee Designs ~ #90 Living Things w/ Wings

Fabulous Friday!

Welcome to the weekend my friends ~

I have recently unpacked my Cricut and decided I really need to use it more and learn all it can do. I had an original Cricut when they 1st came out and lemme tell you I wore that thing out! Knew that machine inside and out (so did my son, at the time he was like 3.) Then I decided to sell it and get the 2nd machine they put out... I used it but not as much and certainly didn't know it 1/2 as well as I did the 1st machine. Then like an idiot I decided a Silhouette would be so much better. I sold all my 80+ cartridges, the machine and all the mats and tools AND my Cricut Gypsy for next to nothing! I'm still kicking myself for that ever so silly decision!  End result, didn't like the Silhouette and sold it, then I bought the Cricut Explore Air. (See why I soooo regret selling all my other Cricut goodies?!) I've had it for a bit and have used it here and there, but hadn't really invested the time required to leearrrrrn it. So today that changed....

I made these two cards using my sweet little machine. I actually made these cards for 2 wonderful ladies. And me ever being the rebel - wanting to look at something in just a different way, I created the 1st card as a Birthday Gift Thank You card and not an actual Birthday card for the Cut It Up challenge. I added tiny little pearls to the centers of the flowers and to the sentiment. I'm gonna plop it in the mail today.

My next cute little card is for the Kitty Bee Aloha Friday challenge. It's harder to see but, the card front is actually a floral cut out! It's super pretty and behind it I decided to add a bright floral pattern paper to peek out from the floral cut out design. I colored a wee little bear (whos holding flowers) to a blue mat. I popped it up from the card front. I also added Wink Of Stella to his little pink ears, nose and heart and again to his little flowers. I really love this card bunches!!

I had a blast watching a few YouTube vids on the Explore Air and know without a doubt, I will be using this machine a lot more moving forward!

             Challenges:
                       Kitty Bee Designs - #89 Flowers
                       Cut It Up - #116 Birthday

Love on the way ~

This sweet image makes my heart smile. That's why I will be sending the card to my daughter who lives in Virginia. I miss her a great deal. She keeps all the cards I make and send. That makes me happy.

I decided to create this sweet little card for the current Kitty Bee Designs Challenge.  This challenge happens to be a color challenge, very soft pretty colors no less. I created a top fold card and embossed the white base layer. The pattern papers are from a sweet little 6x6 card pack I picked up last year while at Hobby Lobby. The crocheted flowers are retired SU embellishments. I added a glitter covered brad to the center. The image is a Kitty Bee Designs image that I colored with my Copics. I hope Sissy likes her new card. =)

I was working in the lab late one night,

"When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise......"

I'mmmmm back! Gonna share this adorable Halloween KBD image with you. I used my Copics to ink up this little bat, BUT,  I couldn't have Frankenbatt be all alone in the night, now could I? So I found an uninhabited, yet haunted, mansion sitting on a little hill, already conveniently lite by a low moon. And now, I'm stratified that my little Frankenbatt will have a most wonderful home to live in.

So now I'm sure you would love to know about the current challenge over at Kitty Bee Design Blog - Aloha Friday Challenges - it's all about the music! Just like the song "The Monster Mash" helped me get in the mood for this card, I just know you can come up with a great song to help you! You can also head over check out all the great DT inspiration, other entries and the wonderful challenge sponsor, Kenny K.  I do hope you will head over and add your card to the linky! See you there!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs to you ~
