Catch the bug / ABC - flying by to say Hi!

Monday September 8, 2014
 
Welcome to Monday at Catch the bug for our ABC challenge..
That is Any thing But a Card ... I made this candy wrap.
 
I used the image Bobblehead Witch fly by
I made this image by printing her the size I thought it should be then cut little side tabs and punched a whole in each end then threaded a piece of twine and tied it around the pack of bubble gum. You could do this to a candy bar or box of pencils, crayons.. I used a little removable adhesive behind the image to hold it in place since the twine can move around and not keep it secure. It is quite cute..

Paper Makeup #157 - Sequins /Gems -- I'm sure wine counts

Monday September 8, 2014
 
Welcome to Monday and another fun challenge at Paper Makeup #157 -USE Sequins / Gems
 

I chose to use wine the other fruit for my card. This image is called guilty pleasures.  I love to see yellow and purple together and of course I love green and orange also so I pretty much touched all the bases for some of my favorite color combos. I am not so much a wine person, but I do like wine.. but it was a fun card to make. I'd rather eat the cheese and grapes..
I added the sequins because I was having a hard time trying to figure where to put the sequins, I know it is either or both but I wanted to touch all bases, so added the butterfly. That's another thing.. SHOULD I MAKE THE BUTTERFLY FLYING OFF THE CARD OR ONTO THE CARD???
 What so you do?? 
I hope I have inspired you to play along and remember to use a digi..

Catch the bug New Release ladybug flower / happy birthday

Tuesday September 2, 2014
 
 
I thought this image needed to be a longer card vs. an A2 card. I printed the image out for an A2 but oh it was so small that I  thought the coloring of the flowers would be lost, little alone the bugs would be nothing.. LOL.
 
This was a fun card to color and I love the little bugs on the flowers. I thought it would make a great Happy birthday card so I just repeated the HB below the grass.
