When I saw the CAS challenge was a bug challenge I didn't think I had any IO bugs. I realize now that I do have a couple of cute bees but since I couldn't think of a die I might have, I created my own ladybug from an accessory die set!
The colorful pitchers were die-cut from a background piece I made a few weeks ago while playing in a WCW Challenge. I wanted to soak up extra ink from my palette so as not to waste any ink. I added a few more colors to the palette that day and came up with this vibrant background! Hard to imagine that this came from the palette where I created THIS.

Excellent created lady bug - so cute with the heart shape body. The 2 back pitchers are so pretty and I luv that you set one outside the box (or frame).

Love the colors on the pitchers from soaking up the extra ink Angie. Great little die cut ladybug too. There are times that I feel like I might not have something in my stash either so I have taken to inventorying my stamps so that I can easily find what I need. Of course it is taking a while but once I Have it done it will save me a ton of time finding stuff and I can get to making cards quicker too.

To be able to take leftovers from another project and to make art that is so different from the original, and creating such vibrant ceramic pitchers, oh my goodness!!! No pun intended, oh my paper!!! Angela, the stitched frame gives such dimension and I just love all of the beautiful inky colors that you have created, and those pitchers look so real!!! I love as well all of the dimension you have created as well as the texture. This truly blows me away!
