Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge 56 Bugaboo Stamps







Posted by Picasa
What a busy week! I hope that you all have had a wonderful time creating cards! This sketch sure was a lot of fun! Bugaboo Stamps is our wonderful sponsor this week and the winner gets to choose SEVEN, digi stamps that value $21!!! I am using their Bee image from the Wee Ones Bugs set. Isn't he cute? Head on over to Sweet Sketch Wednesday to play along. I used my Zig H2O brush to color him and I used my Sweetberry Ink Dye Pads: raven and amber. I also used my Create-A-Finish Shading Cake Kit: peach. I added Tulip Fashion Glitter on the antenae and wings. The black cardstock is from the DCWV The Cardstock Stack and the cream is from The Paper Company "Seaside" pack. The printed papers are DCWV papers that were in my stash. I used my Cricut Plantin SchoolBook cartridge to cut the ovals. The flower eyelet embellishments are from my stash as well. I used two kinds of ribbon. The black is from Jo-Ann's and the yellow is from a 6-pack that I got from Target in the $1 bin. The flower embellishments on the bottom are homemade flowers that my mom had given me. Have fun and happy crafting!
