This week's challenge on Bitten By The Bug 2 is to make a card with the lizard feature from the Life is a Beach cartridge. This is my first time to participate. I had a fun time making this card. It was little bit of a stretch for me because I usually make frilly, floral, etc. cards. Donna is better at this type of card. I hope she will participate too. Are you listening, darling Daughter?
I wanted to use the lizard border feature so I cut my card at 5X7. I tore some sand colored paper and layered it over some blue paper for my beach. I cut the lizard border at 5 inches and layered it. I cut the sun at 1 1/2 inches. The bird and tree I cut from some paper I got at Big Lots. It is glittered. The "Fun in the Sun is from the Life is a Beach cartridge as well. I thought it turned out rather cute.
I hope the folks at BBTB2 like it. Thank you for stopping by our blog. We love our visitors and comments. God Bless You. Peggy

Happy Summer Card
A friend of mine asked me to make a card for her little prayer partner at church. The older ladies team up with the tweens and agree to pray for them. She wanted a "Happy Summer Card" because school was letting out.
I used a Daisy May Digistamp from Whoopsie Daisy for this card and colored her with LePlume II markers. I had to use an aqua brush to get a lighter color for these markers. I hope to get some Promarkers soon. I embossed the yellow with Tiny Bubbles Cuttlebug folder. Happy Summer was cut from the Life's a Beach Cricut Cartridge. I used Design Studio to weld the letters together to cut her name. The letters are from the Cursive cartridge. I decorated the inside of the card with flip flops and a lifeguard chair from Life's a Beach. I'm not showing the inside because it has a message to her from her sponsor. I really like these Daisy May Digistamps. Be sure to visit Whoopsie Daisy to see a lot more of these cute stamps.
Thank you for stopping by our blog. Donna and Jacob are on their way to visit for a few days and I can't wait. We both have recently got the Gypsy so I know we'll be playing with them. It will be interesting to see what we come up with during this visit. Peggy
