Boys 'n' Bugs Sneak Peek

Wow! I've been waiting for this day to come for a little bit now. All week you have been seeing wonderful creations by the other DT members from Storage Units, Ink & More and it's finally my turn to show you another cute card ;)
This card was created with the Boys 'n' Bugs set. Isn't it adorable?!
I first stamped the boy and then masked him while stamping the sandbox image. Then I coloured it all with my Copic Markers. What FUN images to colour too!!
I paired these stamps up with Core'dinations textured papers in Blue Lilac and Klondike Blue(all from the Cobalt Blues pack) and also some SU! Designer Paper. The sentiment was stamped and some little bugs added around it for some added fun! It was then punched out with a Key Tag Punch and a 1 3/8" Circle of Klondike Blue behind it. Dimensionals were used to make it pop. I then decided to add some little ant brads I had in my stash ;)
Interested in winning this set? Of course you are! Leave me a comment letting me know you are interested! I'll be drawing a winner on Monday, June 30th. Please only ONE comment per person and the winner must contact me by Tuesday morning or I will draw another name. Denise from Storage Units, Ink & More will be mailing it to the winner directly.
Also, don't forget you still have a couple more days to enter to win the "Motherload" giveaway!
Stamps: Boys 'n' Bugs
Cardstock: Cobalt Blues Core'dinations, WW, SU! DP
Inks: Adirondack Black, Brilliant Blue
Accessories: Copic Markers, Key Tag Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Ant Brads, Dimensionals

Adorable, Dawn! I love the bright boy-type colors. You can't go wrong with orange (that my little guy's favorite!).
