The challenge at Bitten by the Bug 2 for the next two weeks is Country Fair. I am in the midst of getting projects done for my daughter’s wedding, which is less than two weeks away and I am only four days away from flying out to her house in Washington state. Yikes!
However I was able to get a quick card done for a couple of great-nieces who show goats at the fair.
The goat is from Nate’s ABC’s. It is two layers and I colored the nose, hooves, and eye with a black marker. The sentiment is the font is Signature Script Fonts with the “fair” coming from Country Fair. A good way to add to a simple card is to emboss the background. I used the Cuttlebug embossing folder called Bandana with white cardstock and then used a blending brush with Distress Oxide ink over the whole thing. Another way to make things go a little quicker was to use an adhesive backed cardstock from DCWV for the letters.
Get your own inspiration for a country fair theme by going to Bitten by the Bug 2 and seeing what the other projects the the designers came up with. Then go ahead and link up your own project using your Cricut by June 20th. – Denise

Best wishes for a fabulous wedding this weekend!!
