Sorry You Caught A Bug

It's cold and flu season, ugh. So many of use are so sick around this time of year and I thought it would be really fun to create this adorable "Sorry your caught a bug" card. I used the new Lawn Fawn stamp set, Bugs and Kisses for this 4 bar size card. Since I myself was sick with the flu when I create this card (I never miss a deadline, hehe) I wanted to keep it CAS--but I still wanted it to be pretty. So I went to my go-to technique--watercoloring! I took a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor cardstock and a few shades of blue and green watercolors and created this background panel. While that was drying I cut out the 4 bar sized card base, and also die cut the stitched circle using the, Stitched Circles stackables dies. Next I took the large bug stamp with the eye lashes--I love the girly look, and I stamped that onto the center of the circle. Next I grabbed an older stamp set, On the Mend and used the smaller bug image and stamped that right on top. I added some green copic coloring and then assembled everything together. I finished the card off with some Pretty Pink Posh sequins and that was it!
