Happy Birthday!

No, not my birthday or anyone I know, at least not today. But you can never have too many B-day cards on hand.

It's Barb from BugBites with my design day project for you.

I decided to use the Stamp Annie Thing Wish Big stamp set for my simple but cute little birthday card today.

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto the card stock base. Then I added a few coordinating papers, colored this sweet little girl with my copics and I had a Birthday card for my stash. You don't need a ton of different papers for a cute card. Just a few scraps and a great set of stamps.

You can pick up this cute little stamp set here.

Have a terrific Monday.

Witch's Candy


Hello! It is Melissa with another Halloween themed project.  I love to make projects for Halloween.  I found this candy dispenser cut file at SVG Cutting Files, Zombie Dispenser Box.  I just removed the "zombie" face and added the beautiful witch from Best Witches.  She is colored with Spectrum Noir Markers. The sentiment is from the same stamp set, along with the bats.  I stamped the bats on a piece of scrap paper before I added them to the tag.. to make them look like they are in a misty fog.

 Below is the candy dispenser with the drawer open... This file is ALL one piece so very easy to assemble.


Thanks for stopping at the blog today.  Have a great day!

Witching you the Best!

Hi everyone! Melissa here with a card featuring one of the Witches from the Best Witches Stamp Set.  This set comes with Halloween themed images and sentiments. The image is colored with my Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment on a banner die from Jaded Blossom and folded the ends so I could add purple bows on the side.  This gorgeous card base is from SVG Cutting files and  punched a circle on the top mat to frame this image.



This stamp set has so many possibilities and I can't wait to play around with it some more.  Thanks for stopping by!

Love you every day ...

Good morning! Ruza here to share my card featuring the adorable Lulu's Valentines stamp set.


For today's card I colored her skin and hair with Copic Markers, then pulled out my scrap design paper to paper-piece her outfit and string of hearts. Distress Ink was added around the edges, pearls were added to her hair, and 3D Foam Squares were used to layer my CAS design onto my cardstock.

I hope today's project inspires you to head on over to the store to check out all of the amazing stamps that we have to offer.

Until next time ... Enjoy!

 Today I made a super cute Notepad holder and Pencil box.
I know school has already started..but I just love how it came out and I think it would look cute on a teachers desk!
I got the idea for the note cube holder from the $1 bin at Michaels.  So I bought a cube of note paper and then measured it out to make a box to hold them.  I added some side panels of school themed paper, colored my CUTE Nerdy Pencil and then added some Rhinestone border and Trendy Twine in Lemon Tart.   I stamped a sentiment from the stamp set and pop dotted it on the Banner Charm from Jaded Blossom.

 For the Pencil Box, I used the Cut file from SVG Cutting Files, Valentine Treat Pack, added some Crazy Coral Ribbon from LoveBugCreations and topped it off with the sentiment stamped on the Jaded Blossom arrow die.

CLOSE UP...its tooooo CUTE!

Let down your hair ...

Good morning. Ruza here to share a fun card I created with the adorable Mermaids stamp set.

Size: 3-1/2" x 5"

The Mermaids are so much fun to color! For today's card I pulled out my scrap design paper, and a strip of cardstock that I cut with my border die. After putting the background together I used 3D foam squares in the center of the wave die to pop it up so that the adorable little Mermaid could be popped up under the waves.

Mark your Calendars for the September Mini-Stamp Release.
It starts this Thursday, September 12th!


I hope today's project inspires you to head on over to the store to check out all of the amazing stamps that we have to offer.

Until next time ... Enjoy!

Banana's for the Monkeys'

Happy Monday. It's Barb from BugBitesIt was a busy weekend. My hubby and son ran a half marathon and Sunday I flew to Las Vegas. But before I left I did this quick little card for you today.

I used the Our Lil Monkey stamp set for my monkey friend and popped him up on a banana shaped  card compliments of Miss Ann over at SVG Cutting Files.


I colored my lil' monkey with chalk this time instead of my markers. I wanted to try something new. It is a much softer look. 

I also want to let you know that there are new Stamp Annie Thing stamps about to be released and we have a release blog hop planned. Mark your calendars. 
See you next Monday!

Lulu's Gift Bag

Hello! This is Melissa with a gift bag featuring the adorable Lulu on the front.  She is such a sweet image and a fun one to color. I colored her with Copic Markers. You can find several images of her in the Lulu's Valentine set, it was hard to pick one for my project.

This gift bag file is at SVG Cutting Files, Handle Bag Container. I made this for a little something for my neighbor who was house sitting for me.  Sentiment is from Stamp Annie Thing's Wish Big Stamp Set.

Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful day! :)

Fall Theme Notecards ...

Good morning. Ruza here to share a couple of Fall Themed Notecards that I designed for my daughter's new teacher. She loves Halloween and all things Fall, so I know she will love these 5" x 3-1/2" Notecards I designed with her in mind.




The pair of pumpkins from the Our Lil' Pumpkinhead and sentiments from the One Cool Cat stamp set were just what I needed to make the Notecards. 

I first stamped the pumpkins and sentiment on the cardstock, then used a Black Multi-Liner and ruler to draw the lines. Copic Markers were used to color the pumpkins, and once the cardstock was added to the card-base I added black rhinestones to the empty corners. Super easy!

I then stamped the Pumpkins on the envelopes and colored them in with my Copic Markers. Now that the holiday weekend is over, I will create the rest of the Notecards ... there will be 4 of each design in the set.

I hope today's project inspires you to head on over to the store to check out all of the amazing stamps that we have to offer.

Until next time ... Enjoy!

Something to Crow About

Happy Monday and Happy Labor day! I'm Barb from BugBites and I am here to show you a cute little card I did using the super cute Our Lil' Pumpkinhead stamp set from Stamp Annie Thing Stamps.
Last week the weather was sweltering hot. This week, have have jumped right into fall with cooler temps. With fall in the air, I dug out my fall papers and did a little pumpkin card for ya. 

I used the Our Lil' Pumpkinhead stamp set for all the stamped images you see on this card, the pumpkin, the crow and sentiment.

I love that burlap paper, yes, burlap paper. I was at Joann's and found a whole 6x6 paper stack of textured burlap paper. I can see I will be using that often this fall on my projects.

I have been seeing a lot of projects on the blog with sequins, so of course I had to give it a try. I like the sparkle without using glitter effects. This lil' pumpkin just makes ya smile. 

Get all the details on my blog for this project here and I'll see ya back here next Monday with another Stamp Annie Thing project!
