Oops I think I deleted the photo where my watermark said "for Bug A Boo Stamps" after all that playing with it to get it just right!
My card today is for the Bug A Boo Stamps Catch The Bug "Get Well" challenge that starts today. When I saw the theme all that came to my mind was, "caught a bug?" so I went with it! I colored my cute bug in a jar image with Copic markers R22, R24, R27, T5, T3, T1, G0000, C00, YR09, YR07, YR04.
My layout is a sketch that I thought was pretty neat that I've had saved for quite some time now. I believe it's from Taylored Expressions, I included a photo for you.
I flipped the sketch on it's side and then as I was putting my card together rearranged some of the elements so they'd be better balanced on my particular card. I'm happy with how my card turned out and thought it would be fun to show you where my inspiration came from.
The papers I used on this card are Neenah Solar White, Basic Black by Papertrey Ink and Stampin' Up Only Orange. The orange and black polka dotted paper was in my pile of scraps close to the top and I noticed that I'd put black polka dots on my orange butterfly, hmmm... I put away the Basic Grey paper pad I had torn a few sheets of designer papers from. The polka dotted paper is digital again, the same Jak Heath digital paper I've been using a lot lately, I just printed it on SU Only Orange cardstock. My sentiment was made by me with the computer, I really need to learn how to make my lettering go in a circle.
There you have it, I hope you'll have time to join in our challenge at Catch The Bug this week!
