I thought this card really deserves its own post so here in more detail is how I made this Very Hungry Caterpillar card.
Believe it or not I didn't set out to make a caterpillar card! I was inking up and stamping the cool wonky circle from the Layered Letters Alphabet stamp as background for my "Live, Love, Craft" card and as I was overlapping the circles that is when I had that lightbulb moment. {Ding!}
I actually said "I could make a caterpillar...wait a minute these colours match the Very Hungry Caterpillar!! Oh my!"
So here it is again, my Very Hungry Caterpillar card in the 2015-2017 In Colours.
Cucumber Crush, Mint Macaron & Watermelon Wonder with Tip Top Taupe feet and Delightful Dijon eyes!
