Double Challenge - Makes me "Smile"!

I accomplished two challenges in one card - woah! I'm so proud of myself, lol...I used the Hero Arts sketch challenge as a base from Caardvarks. Then, I saw a new challenge from CuttlebugChallenge which was to "create using punches in unusual ways, and your Cuttlebug of course". So, I used the circle scallop from SU, the tab punch from SU for the wings, the slot punch from sU for the head and cuttlebugged both (body with swiss dots, wings with textured textile) and I used the swirls embossing folder and cut out the raised parts to create the antennae. All of the paper is from The Green Stack (Michaels). The border towards the bottom is spiral punch from SU. Smile stamp is PennyBlack (got it from Terry).
