Welcome to March! After such a nice day here yesterday (over 60 degrees) it’s not expected to be over 37 degrees today!

Today I’m featuring the Cute as a Bug Suite Collection of products. Create charming projects with picnic patterns and friendly bugs in a warm, garden-inspired color palette.

Products include:

• Cute as a Bug 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper
• Sweet Bugs Bundle
• Old Olive Specialty Rickrack (due back in stock late April/early May)
• Ladybug Garden Epoxy Stickers (due back in stock late April/early May)

One of the features is how some of the dies cut out images from some sheets of the designer series paper.

First up, a card featuring both images from the designer series paper on the front and stamped and colored images on the inside.

Second card features images stamped in Memento Black ink then colored with Stampin’ Blend Alcohol Markers. Use the colors of your choice along with Basic White card stock, which is great for color blending with the markers.

Finally, let the designer series paper do the work. Cut a piece of designer paper 3¼” x 3¾” into 3 pieces and adhere to a mat 3½” x 4¼”, then to the card front.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by today, hopefully these projects have inspired you to try paper crafting. When you place an order for Stampin’ Up! products, I would appreciate your business.
