It's a Bugs life!

The theme at Tuesday Taggers this week is 'Bugs' and is sponsored by the Craft Barn. I've made two cards this week. The first uses Kay Carley's  Funky Frames (Aspects of Design), coloured in with Sakura Stardust pens and a water brush.It's very much in the style of Kay. I love her use of colour and the way she uses the stamps to create backgrounds.

For my second card I used two stamps. The 'lazy daisies' are by Penny Black and the 'garden ladybug' by Hero arts. I coloured both in with promarkers and added a bit of stickles to the flowers and diamond glaze to the ladybirds.  Pop over to Tueday Taggers and take a look at some of the wonderful creations my talented teamies have come up with this week.

Thanks for looking!

Both these cards are wonderful Sally, The colours on the butterfly card are stunning together.
I always adore cards with Lady birds (my favourite bug)they are such bright and beautiful little things.
In the North of England they are called "bishy barney bee's"

Hi Sally!! I just stopped by to leave a comment on your fantasy cards and looked what I spied!! Great job on both cards.

I really like the colour scheme on the first one and how you have created the backgrounds (the image is ok too!) - it definitely reminds me of someone but can't quite put my finger on who!!! LOL!!!


Love the fresh feeling of the second card too.

Hugs Kay xx
