Fun with Bugs

February 8, 2023

Karen here. I am loving playing with the new stamps that are available at Elizabeth Craft Designs. They are also available at your local stores! Today, I am featuring a couple cards that I made with the some stencils, inks, and bugs!

This sweet bee is from the English Countryside 1 set. He is colored with Copic Y13, 15, and 18 with wings of Y21 and 23. I used Distress Oxides in Fossilized Amber, Saltwater Taffy and Mowed Lawn through a stencil from the Planner Essentials 2 set. The sentiment is from the Smell the Flowers set. I cut the card base with a Stitched Rounded Rectangle die.

Love this fun butterfly from the also from the English Countryside 1 set. I colored him up with R32, R35, R37, BG11, BG15, and BG18. The body is E41. Through the stencils, I added Distress Oxides in Peacock Feathers, Wilted Violet and Candied Apple.

Thank you for stopping by today.

Craftily yours, Karen

Step 2 – Diecut Bridge & Lotus (pond) using a scrap piece of cardstock to use as a stencil. Place the stencil created and place it on the card front. Use a Blender Brush to apply mid Blue Ink. (Optional – if you have the Planners Stencils 1 place the one that looks like waves and ink it with the remaining ink on the brush.)

Step 3 – Diecut Bridge & Lotus (bridge and lotus) in various colors of cardstock. Assemble and adhere to card using Kid’s Choice Glue.
