This is my card for this week's Bitten By The Bug Challenge. We were to use the Circledots cut from the Cricut Mini Monograms cartridge. I had a birthday card to make for my cousin and she loves purple so I used some YUMMY K & Co. glitter paper.
So if you visited my yesterdays post you probably went and viewed the video I made for the Hallmark LadyBug Blog. I came across THIS post and was inspired to save my bill envelopes and use them for patterned paper. I cut out all the flowers for this card with my flower dies and Cuttlebug machine. For the flower centers I used the Cricut George cartridge and the circle cut.
I just love black and white cards with one more color dropped in there for a blast of pizazz!!! The happy birthday stamp is from a Kim Hughes set called "Tag! You're it!" from Cornish Heritage Farms.
Don't forget to go see all the other lovely creations by all the other BBTB designers and be sure to enter the CONTEST over at BBTB....prizes are offered up by the wonderful SweetArts Paperie!!
Thank you for dropping by to see me....join me tomorrow for more card FUN! HUGS!!!
