Buggy Summer



Summer is coming and I need a bunch of simple notecards for my year end. I just love how these turned out. The images are from Stampin' Up's Cute as A Bug (retired) and Lady Bug Picnic (retired). I bought both of these probably five years ago just for this purpose and am embarrassed to say this is the first time I've gotten around to my end of year cards with them.

The cards are made on Gina K.'s luxury white cardstock and the images were coloured with copics. I'm so impressed that the colour didn't bleed through. I just love how these turned out! Then sentiment is also from Gina K.'s tag set. The frame was hand drawn with a ruler and a 0.2 Copic fineliner. I will so have to use this technique again.

You'll see the next two in the set Thursday. Have a great day!

Challenges these cards meet:
Less is More - Single Layer and use a Frame
Saturday Challenge - Going Buggy
