Wild Card # 36

Excellent...#36. This one really turned out cute. I didn't have a bee cut that I liked...so I made my own (thank you Gypsy!!). He's cute!! This little guy is for my nephew on his 2nd Valentines Day.

RECIPE:

• Bazzill white and red and Swiss dot black and mustard
• We R Memory Keepers-Heart Attack line (all other papers)
• red ink
• yellow embroidery floss
• CTMH- Say it in Style and February word puzzle for Sentiments(I added an "e" on Be mine)
• Star dust Stickles
• Black enamel accent Inkssentials
• Cartridges used: Wild Card, Lyrical Letters(for bees wings), Designer Callendar(for egg-Bee body), Don Juan(for antennae- actually coffee steam)

Wild Card # 17

And another ones down...Wild Card # 17. This card is called circle...a name that makes sense. It turned out cute.

Recipe:I used 3 cartridges for this card, Wild Card, Doodlecharms for the ladybug and DonJuan for the antennae. Black stickles, Bo bunny ribbon, Bella Bling and the sentiment on the inside is a sticker from Stampendous. The paper for this card was a rose coloured Bazzill and Basic Grey's Lemonade. I even used my cricut markers(pink) to outline the "oh happy day" sentiment. This card actually stands...the next card in the series does not. The ones that don't stand drive me nuts! This card already has a home. It's for Tanis' other daughter(ladybug lover) for her birthday. Wow, I have cards made for next years b-days already...Yeh!
