I chose to do both choices, so made a scene background using dies and punches.  I just hope Woofie and his friends don't dig up the garden!

Caught a Bug

@ 2 Crafty Critter Crazies we always have critters, yes, every month.  Check out design team inspiration and enter the challenge, here:

Thanks to sponsor Sparkle n Sprinkle for this bugly image, get it here: sparklensprinkle bugs-in-a-jar

I printed the jar & sentiment on blue card, then with a craft knife cut out the jar (which I will keep to use as a mask for another project).  The bugs are coloured with Copics and punched.  The lid is gold metallic pen and the edge is 'stitching' in white pen.  I did flip the bug image on the computer so I got them looking both ways.

I think this would keep a kid (or adult) amused for a while if they were sick.
