Sweet 'n Sassy May Release Blog Hop Day 3: Buggin Ya

Welcome to Day #3 of our May Release Features!

Buggin' Ya

  

In Korin's words: As a mother of three boys, creepy crawlies have been a part of my life for many years, so this set is for all those boy moms, grandmas, aunts and babysitters who know what it's like to find critters in pockets or hear that sweet voice asking for a container where he can keep his "new friend".  I have to say, if creepy crawlies my boys brought home were this cute, I might not have been so hesitant to oblige their request. ;)

  • Set measures approximately 4" x 6"

  11. What a fun card! I did realize you colored the ladybug wrong, but I thought you did it on purpose... I was going to say how much I liked the colors swapped out for a creative change! ;) Great layout, too - I love the banners!

  12. Gio, not to worry about the coloration, these hybrid ladybugs sold to hunt down bio feed on plant sucking aphids don't always look like the 'original'. You hit the color zone in your bg reds and blacks. Dots gave feeling of action, which bugs generate in most any crowd! just like this SNS set! Keep Looking UP! mt23stamperatyaho
