Thankzzz... Challenge Me Monday #17

Happy Wednesday, Everyone! I hope you all are keeping yourselves cool. It's really hot out there!
This for the Challenge Me Monday challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut challenge blog. The challenge this week is to use a critter on a project and use the color orange some where in the project. You also need to use your Cricut somewhere in the project. I decided to make a card. I think it came out very cute!

Recipe:
Card size ~ 5.5 x 5.5 inches
Paper from Papertrey Ink
Patterned paper from Memory Makers ~ Chloe's Closet

Cartridge used ~ Create A Critter
Scallop page 62. I welded two 5.5 inches scallop circles to make the card base in Design Studio. The paterned paper is cut at 4.75 inches to layer on top. The inside layer is the same size and the white layer is cut at 4.25 inches.
Love Bug p. 66 cut at 3.5 inches. I used the hide contour feature on the face and heart.

Sentiment is from StampinUp!
Face is from Peachy Keen Stamps

Other supplies:
Cuttlebug ~ Swiss Dots embossing folder
orange ink for edges of scallops and sentiment
black ink
ribbon from stash
gelly roll pen for stitching
glue dots and pop dots

Thanks for stopping by!
