Bugs and Blooms in Retro


Here's my take on the Retro Sketch challenge #96 that uses a pre-colored digi stamp from Deedees Digis called Bugs and Blooms. I put the fun sentiment on the inside which says "Sending you bugs and wishes." All I did to the image was add a little glitter pen accents to the flower and stem, and the rest was already done for me! Cute, eh? :) The background papers are from Making Memories and PTI, the oval die cuts are from Spellbinders, and the tiny white punched flowers were done with a SU! mini punch. The ribbon was from my stash, and the red gemstones are from Pizzazz Aplenty - which is having a great BO/GO sale going on right now!

Are you playing along with Deedee's January Digi challenge yet? If you play along with January's challenge, you'll be mailed February's digi for free so you can play along again in February. If you missed playing along in December, you can still purchase the January digi right here for a reduced price during the month of January. What have you got to lose? Go check out the challenge right now - you have until the end of the month to play along and have fun!

Thanks for the visit today, I wish you a wonderful day!!

I adore this little lady bug and you did an outstanding job with him. Love that polka dot paper with the squares. I have used this one before and plan on making quite a few more cards with it. Enjoy your day.

Such a cute ladybug. I love that dotted paper in the bg and the combo of red, black, and white is always so gorgeous.
