What's the Buzz?

What's the buzz? Well, the buzz here at BugBites is that it's another Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons design team day. That means a fun project made with PPPR files. 

I am using quite few PPPR files today, especially an oldie but goodie, the Honey Bees.
The yellow and black go so well with so many things and bees work great for any occasion. 

So lets see what other PPPR files did I use...

Honey Comb Heart shape for the background honey comb overlay,
The Borders 2 file for the scallop border

The sentiment is is from My Pink Stamper and the cute face is from  Peachy Keen. A few buttons and twine and a little sparkle on the wings has my card buzzing. 

Please be sure to stop by the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons blog today and see all of the fantastic design team projects.

DCD Anything Goes Challenge

Welcome back to another Die Cuttin' Diva's  challenge and this week it is anything Goes!!!
I recently found out the little neighbor boy likes fireman. So I thought it would be fun to do a treat for him with a fireman on it somehow. Well, my solution was a lollipop holder. 
I used the My Creative Time Lollipop holder metal die and embellished it with this cute fireman. He was a Free svg file over at SVG Cuts. You can find it here. 

I used scrap paper from my stash and then added a Jaded Blossom sentiment from the Super Hero stamp set. The face is from Peachy Keen's Erkle and Merkle set.

I am looking forward to seeing all your wonderful and creative projects. 
Be sure to hop over to the Die Cuttin' Diva's  blog to see all the fabulous projects the design team has created this week.

Merci!!

Wow, where do these weeks go? 
It's a pink Monday and a Stamp Annie Thing design team day for me.
This week I am using the Stamp Annie Thing Ooh La La stamp set. The girl is so cute and there are many sentiments to go with it. 
I have a super cute pink and black Carta Bella paper pack that has some super papers in shades of pink, black and grey that inspired my design.

I used my copic markers and did some paper piecing for the stamped image. I then did a little piercing around the mat for a faux stitched look. My canine companion is popped up on two thicknesses of foam tape.
Thanks to Ann over at SVG Cutting Files, who created this Poodle file for me.  You can find the link to this sophisticated  canine file here.

The card is finished off with some pretty pink trim and bling.

This image and the sentiment are all part of the Ooh La La stamp set which you can find here.

Have a terrific day!

Today the design team is revealing the newest stamp set over at Stamp Annie Thing called Wish Big. 
This is just another super cute stamp set specially for Birthdays. I wanted my birthday girl to be holding a whole bunch of balloons so I used the balloon bouquet stamp along with the little girl for my main image. Then came all the fun paper piecing and coloring. I finished it off with the birthday sentiment and some ribbon.
