Dont bug me Challenge Atc

Don't Bug Me Challenge

Above is the front of the easel Atc

Above is the back of the atc easel

The challenge was don't bug me, so after discussing in length that spiders aren't a bug i was not to sure about bee's but thought what the hell and found my pc crafter images out.i found the pc crafters images and thought Wow these will be suitable

I made a atc template out which was 10.5 inches by 2.5 inches and scored it 3 times for the atc size
I scored itand made it so it opens like an easel shaped like in January 2010 when i first started to make them,
I printed out some honeycomb's background paper from the pc crafter images and matted it onto some orange card stock
I cut the " don't bug me " onto some hard card stock and layered it up a few times so it gave the stop for the easel slipping off.
Then layered the bees house on to the atc and added a few bee's which i admit i added a few more on, lastly i added some bumble bear images on the back so it didn't look bear.

I added diamond glaze some stickles clear glitter glue and some gems onto the atc to add dimension

May butterfly of the month

This is with the stamping up set Flight of the butterfly and the punch also from stamping up which is heavy! but if i get robbed i can hit them over the head with it so 2 in one tool Yay

I stamped the "if nothing ever changed there would be no butterflies" i love this sentiment and i love all butterflies at the moment. this was stamped onto some mint card stock and embossed with some clear embossing powder.
i then punched the butterfly out 4 times in 4 different contrasting colours and some dots on velum which i had ages ago and never used. layered together using diamond glaze and added 3 green beads for the body.
Lastly i matted and layered it all together added a punched flower from dove craft and some gems

I have to admit i love stamping up projects, if you require some info please contact Lisa Lovell on here blog http://lavender-stamper.blogspot.com where i know she can help you as time and time again she helps me spend more than the stampers 10 a month and i have just renewed to carry on going .
