"Fred She Said" New Release Challenge DT Card + some other challenges

Hi Everyone!
I am soooo excited! Tracey Lynn Miller of "Fred She Said" is releasing a BUNCH of new digis! I have already played with some of them and they are too cute!
Fred (Tracey) ;) has decided to have a "New Release" challenge. All you have to do is go to her blog, download the adorable FREE flower pot digi, make a card with it, following the posting directions Tracey has on her page and you could win big! Hope you will join in on the fun!
I will be posting my card made with her freebie in the next day or two.
It will be a judged challenge. All of us DT girls will vote. The winner will win ALL...yes ALL of the new releases plus a $20 gift certificate!
Now, head on over HERE for your free digi and get to craftin'!
Oh...wait!
Check out my card below before ya go!
I used the new release "Miss Bitty" set from "Fred" Make sure and check out all of the other DT's cards too! We have some fabby artists in our little group! ;)

"Little Miss Bitty Bug" was done with a base of Black Bazzill Swiss Dots and the DP is Basic Grey's new "Lemonade" stack. The ladybugs were hand made by me and I painted Bitty's dress like a ladybug too. This qualifies her for the challenge over at "Stampin' For The Weekend" where they are giving us 3 "Rock and Roll 70's" song titles to choose from for inspiration. I chose "3 Times a Lady by: the Commodores. I guess mine would really be called "3 Times a Lady...Bug" LOL! ;)



This week's challenge at "Stampin' for the Weekend" is being sponsored by "Fred She Said" so you have yet another chance to win "Some Fred"! $25 gift certificate as a matter of fact! So I really hope you will join us!



I am also entering this card in the following challenges:
"Our Creative Corner's" "Triple Play" challenge. They have a list of embellishments and and you have to use at least 3 of them.
I used brads, ribbon, thread, and crystal lacquer.
Simon Says Challenge – “Summer Fruits” - Use summer fruit or summer fruit colors.
I used Basic Grey’s “Lemonade” stack which is lime, lemon yellow, cherry and strawberry colors.
Creative Inspirations – “Stitching…Real of Faux!”
I always stitch on my cards! They are naked without it! LOL!
Dutch Dare Card Challenge – “Use cutting dies and/or punches”
I used my Nesties for the image and frame and punches for the ladybugs and their spots.
Daring Card Makers – “Away with the Fairies”
I think Bitty should count as a fairy too! Don’t you? ;)
Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge – “Spots and Stripes” use ‘em. ;)
Bitty has spots on her dress, there are spots on the ladybugs, and the accent panel behind the image, the DP on the inside, and the ribbons are stripes.



Thanks again for stopping by! Please remember to leave a comment if you have a second. I just LOVE 'em!

Hugs,
True :)
