The challenge for this week is to use a bug somewhere on your card. I chose to use this adorable image called Butterfly Bear 7. Isn't he just precious? I began by measuring my Spellbinders Blossom 2 die and then sizing and printing the image onto Cryogen paper with my inkjet printer.
Copics used:
Bear - E41, E42, R20, R22, W3
Butterfly outfit - YG63, YR23
I airbrushed YR23 around the image before removing it from the die. I also airbrushed the flowers to match. I computer generated the saying and die cut it with my Spellbinders Fancy Tags die, again airbrushing YR23 before removing it from the die. I hand cut both dark green panels behind the die cuts. Finished size is 6" square.
So before you continue on the hop, here is my letter for you...
Leave a comment here on my blog for a chance to win a BugABoo image of your choice. Next stop on the hop is the wonderfully talented Cheryl Joshua We hope you have fun on the blog hop and please enter the challenge for a chance to win even more images from BugABoo stamps.

I will be adding that Spellbinder die to my wish list for sure. Love how you always take a square card and make it worth looking at. I won't be doing the hop, but your A is the correct grade. I add a plus to it. Bee the best and this is.
Everything about your card works - from the colors, to the layout, to the wonderful sentiment. Very, Very Nice!
