Bugbites Bug Hop Part 2 Entry

I have to say, I don't think I've ever had this much trouble trying to come up with something. I feel like I've completely run out of ideas...sure I have LOTS and LOTS of blogs that I follow for inspiration (and they're ALL amazing!) but I think I just don't have anything to work with.....

I looked through all of my cartridges, and all of my SVG's....and I didn't like any of the summer cuts. I don't have any summer-esque paper.....and I feel like I just threw this together to get it over with....(and thank goodness it is!). Anyway, I'm gonna quit complaining and show it to you...

 Here's is my project :



I used the drink from ScrappingTable. I used the lemon from SVGCuts.com. I had to hand cut the straw and the cherry, and I used a real drink umbrella. The little caterpillar is from Stretch Your Imagination, and I used the Martha Stewart flower border punch.

I decorated the lemon with the clear Sakura Jelly Roll pens, to make it look a little juicy, and around the cup with white gel pen.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE how the cup came out, but everything else just seemed forced.....

Thanks for stopping by and listening to my problems, and I apologize for doing so...LOL.






This will be entered into the BugBites Bug Hop.

  2. It looks cute! I know I have lots of days when I'm trying to make something just to make it...not really feeling it. But the card came out cute despite everything!
