Giddy Bugs!

Hello!  I've been a busy bee today, making challenge cards and trying to keep myself happy despite the fact that the rain WILL NOT go away!!!  It's been raining here all week, and will be for the next few days.  I've never been officially diagnosed with SAD but I'm certain I have it, because the weather really affects me psychologically.  Sunshine always gets my happy juices flowing, whereas cloudy, rainy days really give me the blues.  Anyway, I pulled out one of my favorite "happy" stamp sets, Giddy Bugs from Paper Smooches, to make a card.  The adorable little bugs in this set never fail to bring a smile to my face :)

I'm playing along with Paper Smooches Designer Drafts Challenge, and today is the first day of Kathy Racoosin's 30 Day Coloring Challenge so I'm adding my card to that too.  I'm also adding it to Virginia's View Challenge #19, All Things Colored.











I used my Zig Clean Color Brush Pens to color the images on my card, and a fine line black marker to make the lines and dots around the sentiment panel.  That's about all, this was a quick and easy card.  I'm still not great at coloring, but the more I do it the more comfortable I become with it and the better I get, as with anything practice makes perfect!

I'll be back today with a couple more cards I made for other challenges, see you then!
