Summer Bug Brigade Freebie-- The New and Improved Beach Bug

Cow-a-BUG-a Dude!

Welcome to the latest Bug Brigade reveal!  For those of you who have been with me since the beginning of July, you know that all the freebie and new releases revolve around the theme of bugs.   But don't worry, you'll only ever see cute ones on this blog--none of those nasty creepy crawlers with way too many legs to be natural.  This is a cute bug zone only!  Today's offering definitely falls into that category.  Naomi has gone and revamped one of her original bugs for this week's freebie.

Today we have for you, the very special...

Beach Bug

 It is time for Beach Bug to come out of the store and splash around.  She has been touched up and saved at a new resolution making her bigger and better.  So, if you already have her, you'll want to download her again to receive this improved version! 

Click HERE to get "Beach Bug".  Available from Tuesday, July 16th, until Tuesday, July 30th, 2013.

After that it will be replaced with another freebie.

 Your eyes will BUG out over the fabulous creations that were made to showcase this cutie pie...

Once again,  Jennifer from Krafty Keepsakes was able to make a card, this time to show off Beach Bug...

 What a great card for a summer birthday!  I really love all the texture that Jennifer has going on in this card.  The raised lettering is really cool too.

  Suze from Craftysuze created this great card...

Another wonderful birthday card with great designer papers and an awesome starfish accent.

Our very own Queen of the hive, NAOMI had a little extra time and created this adorable beach scene.

I can't believe she found such a cool beach scene DP to use as the background in behind her image.  Add some gltter and this card surely shines in more than one way!  Here is a close up of Naomi's rendition of this sweet bug...

Special thanks to Jennifer, Suze and Naomi herself, for their awesome contribution this week.  If any of you would like to help us showcase an upcoming freebie or new release as a GDT until the DT is up and running,  please EMAIL ME.

Sneak peek guesses...

There were a couple guesses this week but unfortunately nothing remotely close!  Although I should send Ike something for having the most creative guess of it being a "star struck/spotlighted COW all done up ready for the Stampede".  Interesting thought, especially considering Ike knew it was going to be a bug.

DON'T FORGET...
