There have been so many wonderful cards made using the Ladybug since it’s debut. Today’s card is a fun one I created that looks nothing like a ladybug. This one is very festive!
Ladybug Punch
Saying this card is a Ladybug card is a bit of a confusing statement. Yes, I used the Ladybug Punch, but I do not believe that my sweet little bug is anything like a Ladybug. And that is the fun of making cards and creating. To use unusual colors we can make the intended use into something all our own. By punching the bug from two different pieces of bright DSP, it is a totally new looking bug.
Designer Series Paper
The DSP I used is all from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper. It is a Host Reward in the Annual Catalog. And it is an awesome deal for the amount of paper you get. There are 48 sheets of double sided DSP. And there are 4 each of the 12 double sided pieces. Getting twice the amount of paper as is in a regular package of DSP is exciting. So I used three different pieces. And the wonderful thing is that they coordinate beautifully together.
Stamp Set
The lovely sentiment is from the Rainbow of Happiness stamp set. This sentiment is so lovely and works for a variety of occasions. I thought it paired wonderfully with the bright Bug I created. Additionally, the little hearts I used are also in the stamp set. They add just a soft touch to the strip and next to the sentiment.
Final Touches
If you do not recognize the White Doily, that is because it is the reverse side of the different color ones in the Heart & Home Doilies. Using the white on the back gives them quite a bit of extra use. And they are easy to color with any type of sponging or blending. Finally I had to give the little bug some additional detail. The Holiday Rhinestones include the gold ones I used for eyes. They seem to fit the Bumblebee color of the card base. And add a touch of bling as well. That is always a win!
