I hadn’t seen many people use the caterpillar bits & pieces that Candice included in her new Pond Life set, so I thought I would put together a little card using them. The set includes the head, body segment & backside all as separate images. I loved this detail because it allows you, the artist, to do two things; control the length of the caterpillar & alternate the colors used for each body part. For my project today, I wanted to make a bright, cheerful, sunny card, so I pulled out my new favorites, Lemon Tart & Summer Sunrise. I created a few different patterned papers using a variety of stamp sets (see the supply list below) to create a strip medley on the cover.
After I had completed stamping my caterpillar, I added this fun sentiment from Pond Life Sentiments. I think it is just SO adorable! I also added Stickles to the little guy. He just needed a little accessorizing! Did you purchase Pond Life with our most release? I would love to see your projects using the little caterpillar. He has so many possibilities! I know the Simple Alphabet would fit in each segment of the body, which would be so cute spell out a child’s name!
