Bugs And Kisses

It's Jeanne sharing with you on the Tuesday edition of the blog.  I hope you had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and got to enjoy yourself.  I got to do a bit of card making and have a fun all occasion card to share.

This card uses one of the NEW DESIGNS from Lil' Bluebird Designs at the Scrapping Cottage - Love Bugs.

I started with a sketch from Splitcoaststampers and then picked my paper in colors that went with bugs and a frog.  I love the expression on the frog's face.  He is too cute!  I stamped the images on a stitched circle and colored them using Prismacolor pencils.  Then I stamped my sentiment and cut it out using the coordinating die.  I love that the sentiments in these stamp sets have dies!  And best yet they are on sale right now!

Included in the sale are the 16 new Lil' Bluebird Designs  Photopolymer Clear Stamp Sets and coordinating dies. There are stamps for so many of your card making occasions and then some. The coordinating dies just make it a perfect fit for your card making designs.

And speaking of recent releases, the CottageCutz Sentiments with Shadows. and Slimline Dies are also on sale!

There is still time to take advantage of the Labor Day Sale at The Scrapping Cottage! Be sure to visit the online store to see what's on sale.  The sale ends September 10 at 9:00 pm Pacific time.

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a card that features one of the Sentiments with Shadow die sets which is the newest die release from Cottage Cutz. The whimsical font on these sentiments is so super cute.  I also used one of the Lil' Bluebird Designs stamp and die sets and a die set from the last Slimline die release.  Currently, all of these releases are on sale!

I used card stock to cut out the Honeycomb Background Slimline and the Sweet w/Shadow sentiment.  The bees and trails are from the Love Bugs set.  The bees were watercolored with ink.

The honeycomb panel was placed on a white card base. I ended up die cutting a few honeycombs with the slimline die and adhered the negative pieces for a pop of color.

Next, the bee trails were affixed to my card base.  The sentiment was adhered on the bottom portion of my card.

The adorable bees were added near the trails.  I used some Wink of Stella on their wings for a sparkly affect.

The finished card is one that can be stashed away in the all-occasion pile for a special event!
