Catch the bug/Bugaboo color challenge - I'll rise but I refuse to shine

Saturday April 26, 2014
 
Yeah it's the weekend. I am at a Church ladies retreat this weekend at Seaside Oregon. It's always a fun filled, emotional, spiritual lovely weekend. I always come home refreshed, renewed.
 
 

These are some of my favorite colors so this was quite easy. I had a bunch of small throw away scraps so I just cut strips and adhered them to a separate piece of paper and then trimmed it to the size I needed then added the top piece of designer paper from Cosmo Cricket. I used one of my favorite characters from Bugaboo..  Gus Consciousness  The sentiment is from Art Impressions and had to use it cause it just fit the image.
