Ladybug Birthday Wishes

Today at Catch the Bug starts a new Saturday Challenge in which the theme is a BINGO.  For my card, I used part of the 3 Square Floral Thinking of You and the sentiment is from a retired Verve set that I heat embossed. The background has lines and dots which is dry embossed, the photo doesn't show it well. I did some faux stitches.  So I was able to do a white out or complete BINGO card.  My player's choice was a sentiment  I used a Martha Stewart ladybug punch and some ribbon. So go see what the team did and join in. There is a cute bee freebie for the week.

You're worth celebrating!

Today at Catch the Bug there is a new challenge and it's a BINGO.  I was able to do a black out again and use all the elements (otherwise I just can't decide). My image is Bug Flower Teddy and the sentiment is from TLC, Create.  I was looking for a bright cheery card since we have it snowy and cold with temps below zero....and I am tired of winter. We had our first snow on Halloween so it seems to be lasting forever!

Dear Santa: I want it all!

Today at Catch the Bug there is a new challenge which is a BINGO challenge.  For my card I used all the items. I chose to use image, Kidz Christmas Santa and a sentiment from TLC, Create.
Sorry I'm late on posting...I was going to set up for an auto post; however, I didn't have time to set up before I left town to go spend the day with daughter for her birthday. I spend the day with her in her classroom which I was fortunate enough to do anything this year and took a Princess cake to share with her class.  She also many times takes her dog to school on Fridays which she also did on her birthday and it is funny because he patrols the classroom as if he owns it and he is great with the students.
