Buggy Birthday

I dug out one of my favorite retired SU stamp sets to make a card for three different challenges.  The sketch for my card came from Sketches by Carly.  I saw that SUO Challenges were doing kids cards and I went for the stamp set All Wrapped Up. I love all of the accessories you can put in the jar and bag stamps!! And since my girls love to catch bugs and other creatures during our summer vacation, I'm also entering this in Hand Stamped Sentiments Summer Fun challenge.


Card Recipe: cardstock-crumb cake, baja breeze, whisper white, and poppy parade DSP, ink-basic black, baja breeze, poppy parade (marker) stamp sets-All Wrapped Up and Sassy Suzie (also ret.), accessories- whisper white 1/4" grosgrain, silver brads

    Margaret, this is TOO cute! Love how the jar pops off the Baja Breeze and the brads in the corners, too. That is a really fun stamp set! :)

    Very fun card! Definitely reminds me of the summer...camping and collecting....bugs, rocks, sticks and so on. I like the lid laying on the side, too. Gives the card life...like "hurry, put the lid on before they get out!" :) Thank you for joining us this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments!!

    What a wonderful summer memory when I was a kid running in the backyard and catching lightning bugs. This card brings it all back. Thanks for playing at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
