"Creepy Crawlers" w/ Orange! - Challenge #17

This is my card entry for the "Fantabulous Cricut Challenge" We are to make a project using any type of bug AND use the color orange somewhere on our project.

I hope you all like it:)

Inside


Cricut Close Up


Tag


Embellishment



Recipe

This card is 5 ½" X 4 ¼". The floral, striped and yellow backgrounds are all 5 ¼ " X 4". The floral print was cut using center point at 2" and the striped print was cut using center point at 2 ½".  The yellow was left alone and placed behind both prints.
The Cartridge I used is Store Front. The Cricut was cut at 3 ¼" and run through
my Cuttlebug using the "Swiss Dots" embossing folder.  The tag was hand cut and
punched with an EK Success edger punch.
I then stamped the phrase “Love my bug!”on tag using my new stamp set from My Pink Stamper called "Buggy Punnies". Finally, I finished it off with a pretty bow and button embellishment and some green brads on the tag.

ENJOY!

Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

  1. It's a Cricut!! I've never seen that cut before. In fact, I read your recipe to see how you made him, only to discover he's actually a cut on a cartridge! I've never even looked at Storefront before and didn't realize the cuts were all related to ProvoCraft. Thanks for the lesson!
    Great card, by the way! I love those papers and the bit of ribbon and button. Well done!
    Thanks for playing along at FCCB this week!
