It turns out I'm still in the mood for summery, bbq cards! For this one, I used the same background paper as my last BBQ card. I was thinking about picnics and the first thing that came to mind is ants stealing my food. However, it turns out there aren't a lot of Cricut cartridges with ants on them, and of the ones that exist, I have none! It was time to get a little creative. For these little guys, I cut the caterpillars from Stretch Your Imagination at 1 inch and then trimmed off half of their bodies. Don't they look like they're having fun stealing someone's watermelon? That's how I picked the sentiment from Stampendous' "Everything Happy." I added a little bling on the tag on either side of the sentiment.
The watermelon and the tag are also from Stretch Your Imagination.
I plan to enter this card in the following challenges:
Fantabulous Cricut- BBQ Time
Die Cuttin Divas- Summer Fruits and Veggies
I love how you made these ants! I need to keep that in mind. I am a new follower and hope you will stop by when you get a chance. Thanks for sharing at Die Cuttin' Divas.
