So I'm in Melbourne and I just have to share this little card I made for my gorgeous niece Lily who has just turned 3. It's so sweet and I can't wait to give it to her!!
This card was also inspired by Pinterest, but I had to make a few of my own little changes. I love punch art, and this is one of those cards to grab your punches and start gluing little bits!!
I used a large circle punch for the body, a 3/4" circle punch for the head, and the owl punch for the spots and eyes of the ladybug. I have hand-cut little antennae and drawn little dots for the eyes. I also hand-cut the strip of grass. Usually I would use my herb scissors that are perfect for fringing, but this time I wanted to 'shape' my tufts of grass. I have sponged Red Riding Hood ink around the body of the bug just to give it dimension. It's so sweet!!
I have added some hand cut banners, a chipboard number 3 and made a party this way sign with a toothpick. I also pulled out my Pool Party ink and sponged a sky/cloud background. I love it!!
So here's what I used:
Stamps: Party this Way
Inks: Red Riding Hood, Pool Party, Lucky Limeade
Papers: Pink Pirouette, Whisper White (textured), Real Red, Basic Black & Old Olive CS
Other: Circle Punches, Owl Punch, sponges, dimensionals, glue dots, tooth pick & scissors, stapler
Big Shot & Lattice Embossing Folder.
I told you this was cute or did I saw sweet!!
