Bitten by the Luv Bug

The challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge is to create something with a bug on it.  There are so many Cricut cartridges with adorable bugs, but I decided to use the bug found on the Cricut cartridge Boys Will Be Boys.

Design Paper from Recollections Primary Pin Dot.
Card base has corners rounded at 1/2".


A2 sized card = 5.5" x 4.25"
Cricut Boys Will Be Boys cartridge
Card Recipe:
  • Mat 1 (blue polka dots) = 5" x 3.75".  Corners rounded at 1/2".
  • Zig zag border = from EK Success punch.  White gel pen used for stitching.
  • Sentiment "Bitten by the Luv Bug!" = from CardzTV "Hugs and Kisses" stamp set.

  • Bug and Yellow Background = cut image and background at 2 3/4" from Cricut Boys Will Be Boys cartridge; found on page 53 of the folder.  White gel pen used for stitching.  The white wing of the bug has been embossed with Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" folder.
