Here's what I came up with for Buggin' Ya:
Creative Nugget: The Sweet Stop sketch for this week was used for the card design. The cute parade of ladybugs were colored with Copic Markers. The Grass Die helped to ground those marching critters! To give a country feel, gingham was used for the top panel, the grass and the ribbon. The sentiment was cut apart and matted with True Black card stock.The base layer was embossed with a Picnic Plaid Impression Plate, stitched to True Black card stock, and mounted to the Solar Crest card. Pearls were added to finish the card. These bugs I can live with! LOL!
Here's another one:
Creative Nugget: I got the idea to put all the bugs from this set in a jar, but I didn't have a jar pattern, so off to the drawing board.

| Look...a clean desk space! LOL! |
I sketched the jar by folding the paper in half so both sides would be the same, then used the top of the jar pattern to create the topper. The jar pattern was traced onto a folded card and cut out with the bottom corners rounded. The topper was traced three times onto some Graphics 45 paper...one for the front, one for the back, and one for the inside of the jar. The toppers were glued to the card after Copic Markers were used to define the folds. Doodles were added around the edges of the jar. The bugs were stamped onto the jar and stamped again so they could be colored and popped up. Some splatters were added to fill the white space. A tag was made using one of the sentiments from the set and tied around the jar lid. The ant from the set was used on the inside of the card.

Two adorable cards! I lve the gingham grass under the bugs, tied in with another gingham piece behind the focal and then the ribbon too. That jar reminds me of when my son was little and I had to have those critters in my house! Please share your jar pattern. ;>}
