This is my all time favorite hello card. I used to make it all the time with Bunch of Bugs. I haven't really taken the time to recreate it with Bugs and Hugs until today's challenge. Thanks Jen for the fun challenge! I REALLY need to stick to that limited time thing with all of my challenges.
My 36 year old cousin just passed away this week. He was really a one of a kind person. He was SO FUNNY and loved you (no matter who you are) where you were. He could walk into a room and pick out the hurting people (even if they were really good at disguising their pain) and his focus became one of putting a smile on your face as well as in your heart.
Jen, REALLY, thanks for the challenge. I wouldn't have thought of this card if it hadn't been for the challenge. I will be sending this to "Tippy's" older brother in a few days to remind him that we are all thinking of him and we will be saying "hello" to Tip one day.

Kelly- I'm sorry for your loss but am so proud of you for reaching through your own pain to see someone else's! This is a great card and I love the colors!

Oh, that is way too young to pass on. I'm sorry for your loss; he sounded like one of those rare, special individuals who blessed and enriched the lives of everyone he touched. And now you'll be enriching the life of his brother with your darling card. I love the clean, crisp lines of it and those cute lil' bugs just bring a smile to one's face.
