In yesterday's post I mentioned where I had gotten inspiration for my failed blog hop projects from - CLICK HERE to read it.
Inspiration can come from anywhere and today's projects are no different...but a wee bit of scene setting first...
For several years as a family we have played 'punch buggy' whenever we see a VW Beetle on the road. Seeing one first entitles you to 'punch' (not hard) the other people in the car.
Now, I drive our 15 year old son to school and back each day - and there are a LOT of VW Beetles in Katy. So, my mornings usually contain a few punches in the right arm - I am too busy concentrating on the crazy drivers around me to watch out for Bugs, but I swear our son is looking for them more now than when he was 6!
One day last week he was on a roll - I must have been punched 6 times...then *I* spotted one this colour - what I can only call Pacific Point!!! Hahahaha!
Since we had never seen one that colour before, and I was really struggling to choose another +1 to the Black and White theme, I took that as a sign I was meant to add the dreaded Pacific Point - one Stampin' Up! colour I really do not migrate to voluntarily!!
So, my inspiration for these projects? A VW Bug :)

I used 'Love Story' Project Life by Stampin' Up! cards to create the cards, along with little Pacific Point flowers and Black leaves cut using the Botanical Builder Framelits.
I added some sentiments from Teeny Tiny Wishes, some pearls and some Pacific Point ribbon. On one card I coloured the flowers using a blender pen and the Pacific Point marker.

I then made a bag to hold the notecards from the Brights Designer Paper Stack - using my Box Bag Calculator HERE
I added a Black Button and a few Pacific Point Candy Dots - I LOVE it when everything from the card stock through ink, ribbon, Deisgner Paper, buttons and candy dots ALL MATCH - that's why I am SU crazy!
