Bugaboo Birthday Bash

Happy Birthday Bugaboo Stamps. This week is their 11th annual Birthday Bash, filled with challenges, fun and freebies. Check it out. I love to play with Bug images. So the theme this year is woodland creatures. It started last Saturday so I am already behind but I do hope to catch up this week. 

Day 1's challenge is to create a birthday project using woodland creatures.

I chose Frame It - Bears birthday image from Bugaboo Stamps. The image is colored with Spectrum Noir markers and then fussy cut. To color the image I tried to use the colors in the background paper from my stash. The banner at the top is die cut from MFT Pierced Fishtail Flags (retired). The sentiment is from Pictures by Mandy but I could no longer find the website. I fussy cut the sentiment circle. I used Simon Says Stamps Balloon Bouquet to die cut the two balloons on either side of the sentiment. The backing layers are black card stock. I am entering these challenges:

• Bugaboo Birthday Bash Day 1: birthday project using a woodland creature
• Simon Says Wednesday challenge: something new (SS Balloon Bouquet die)
• 2 Crafty Critter Crazies: use a critter
• The Male Room challenge: animals 
  
• Through the Craft Room Door: anything goes

I did a few hours of volunteer work this morning. It's cold here so I was happy to come home and sit near our wood-burning stove. I am hoping to get another card done for the birthday bash so stay tuned for that. Hope your day is going well. Thanks for stopping by. Stay safe and God bless!
