Make It Snappy - Thanks a Bunch

Good morning, today starts a new challenge at Catch the Bug and its a photo challenge!

I chose to use the colour and flowers as my inspiration so used Bugaboo's Make It Snappy - Thanks a Bunch for my card. I printed the image twice so I could add flowers and make the image fuller. I had the image all coloured and was out shopping Thursday and spotted the perfect background paper! I almost never shop for paper but the stripes were perfect and wow, you should see the other side, gorgeous!

Bugaboo Elf 002

Good morning and welcome to Catch the Bug's Saturday challenge, today's theme is going in circles!

So I have a ton of it and am trying very hard to actually use it! Since the striped paper is soooo busy I kept the rest very simple. I added my favourite ringlet die and a circle sentiment to finish.
