BBTB2 and the cutting Cafe

Bitten by the Bug 2 and The Cutting Cafe have set up a spring challenge that must have orange in it. So I found this excellent paper pack at Joann's by DCWV called Flower Shower Spring Stack. Then Monique at Monkey Doodle Cricut said we could scraplift from her flower power layout so I tried my hand. Cuts are from Paisley, Walk in My Garden, Home Decor(swirl), and Hello Kitty Greetings. I love all the spring colors. Solid cardstock is from my stash. All the above mentioned blogs are amazing. Check them out.

SPCC #36 and Just Buggin'

Samantha put out another tough challenge for me at SPCC. Colors I don't usually think of when doing a layout (except scouts) or a card. They were creamy caramel, barely banana, and mellow moss. I had made this bee from Walk in My Garden before so that is where I started. I used the moss color as a background and cuttlebugged it with the a leaf pattern(don't have the name) for the Just Buggin' Challenge. The card paper is barely banana. Three dots of gun metal stickle and it's done.
