Ladybugs and Daffodils are a perfect pairing. And that is what I have chosen for today’s card. I also added one of the new Heart & Home doilies
Stamps and Punches
The Hello Ladybug Bundle is a great bundle as well as price point. Because it is a punch bundle, the price is quite a bit less. And I love my punches! This card is a great one for quick and simple cards. Punches and great DSP are the backbone of quick and simple cards.
The ladybug is punched from Black cardstock and the wings are stamped onto Flirty Flamingo before punching also. There is no rule of red and black ladybugs in my book! For the sentiment, which is also from the stamp set, I stamped onto scrap Very Vanilla cardstock and then simply cut with my Paper Snips.
Paper and Embellishments
For the second star of the card, I went with the Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper. This paper can definitely stand alone! I pulled all of the colors from this piece of DSP. The doily color is not exactly in the DSP, but compliments those colors. The new doilies come in three different colors and are a great addition to a card. This ladybug needed a place to land and still be the star!
To finish the card, I needed some bling! It does not show well in the photo, but I added some Wink of Stella to the center of the daffodils. Then gave the ladybug her Gold Metallic Pearls for eyes. They do pop against the black of the ladybug body.
Measurements:
I haven’t added my measurements in a while and I apologize for that. These are very basic ones. The card base is 4 1/4 X 11. With the layers being Soft Succulent cut to 5 1/4 X 4 and the DSP cut to 5 1/8 X 3 7/8.
