Bugs

These 'bugs' stamp sets from Creative Expressions are really quirky. I have done a few! Here is a selection.

The large card blank was covered in green spotty paper and the edges distressed. The centre mat is agai white card covered in plain green paper, again distressed.  The spiders web was stamped across the green paper and embossed in black.  The boot, ants and toadstool were water coloured and cut out and stuck on with 3D foam. The 'cute' spider was also cut out and two huge wobbly eyes added then stuck over one of the webs.

The  black card was mounted with yellow paper and the huge sunflower from the set was stamped three times directly onto the white mat and coloured. The centres have seed beeds for texture. The boot, ants and flying thing were coloured, cut out and 3D mounted to the card. The sentiment finishes it.

I didn't realise how much I had used black and yellow card for this selection but again, here it is! A white mat was stamped repeatedly with the web and embossed. The boot painted and cut out along with the ants. The big eyed spider was stamped onto a nestibilities die cut and then stamped again with only the body being cut out. It was mounted onto acetate to allow it to wobble about. 

The final card is for my grandson's birthday in July (hope he doesn't look). The easel was made, yet again with black cardstock. The tin can was painted and cut out with one of the ants being inserted through a slit in the top of the can.  The other ants were stamped across the inside of the card and painted, the centre one was stamped again with only the body added to make a 'stop' for the easel to stand on.  All the mats had the web stamped over them.
