SHOPPING OUR STASH #369 - Quit Buggin' Me

Hello and happy Tuesday!

Summer is still in full swing here in the Mid Atlantic, and

that means the bugs are still out. That brings us to our

new challenge at SHOPPING OUR STASH:

Quit Bugging Me! We want to see a bug or bugs on your projects!

I was inspired by the dragonflies that have lately been zipping around

our house. (Which I love since they eat the skeeters!)

I colored some mixed media paper with Magenta Nuance

powder dyes and a water spritzer. Once it was dry I made

a couple cards from it.

Here's my first card:

It's based on the now ended Freshly Made Sketch #351. This was

pretty fast to make. I only had to die cut the dragonfly.. The flowers

I found in my UFO (UnFinished Objects) container, and the strip of blue from

my scrap file.

I used a dragonfly cover plate and a lot more of the colorful panel on my second card:

A glittery gold embossed sentiment was all this needed.

Ready to play along? Of course you are! Simply create something with a 

bug(s) on it and link up at Shopping Our Stash so we can admire it.

There are a lot more ideas to see,  made by the uber talented 

SOS Crew. You should buzz by their blogs to check them out!

Thanks for visiting!
