When the scrap hits the fun - Cute as a bug

-
For Jen's blog hop click here.

It's Friday!!!!  TGIF!!!  Don't know about you but I'm sure glad that the week is over!  Kids were starting school this week with tons of papers to fill out. It was my month end week and I also have a ton of presentation to do for the budget.... still will be a long day... but at least a long weekend is in view!  It's labor day on Monday so 3 days off!  And I'm so lucky that I get to play around with wonderful digis and craft.  I'm telling you this is what is keeping me sane ;D or almost sane rofl!

Today I'm get to showcase a card that I made using some of the wonderful artwork from Marion from When the scrap hits the fun.

She has a wonderful new set of digis for sale and they are totally adorable.  Here's the digis

And here are the sentiments:
They are so adorable don't you think?!?

I just love the way the precolored lady bug looked so that's the one that I used for my card.  Plus I got to be lazy lol :D  I used one of the wonderful sentiment as well.

I used some paper from Bobunny the Alora Collection (just adore that paper).  I used a bunch of spellbinders (Picot edge circle, Foliage, Standard circle and Daisy patch).

Here's a closer look at the digi.  I used distress ink around it:


And I made my own flower with the spellbinder Daisy patch.  I used red foam and some scrap paper from my stash as well as a brad from Eyelet Outlet.


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
  1. Love to create challenge - Handmade flowers
  2. Paper and such online - Wings N things
  3. Shopping our stash - use your favorite things ( I must admit to just looooooving dies ;D  so I was happy I used a whole bunch here)
  4. Deep ocean challenge blog - Things with wings
I really hope that you will go and check out the wonderful artwork over at When the scrap hits the fun.  What a talented artist!!!!  I'm really blessed that I can work with her digis!

Have a wonderful Friday everyone, don't forget to leave a comment and if you are a follower you might want to join in on my blog candy to celebrate the fact that I have over 100 followers now!!!
