Welcome to this month’s Stamp & Hop Blog Hop
The theme this month is Favourite Bundle
When I saw the theme for this month my first thought was to use the Hello Ladybug Bundle as my favourite bundle and make a couple of Ladybird Thank You Cards.
For each Ladybird Thank You Card I cut a piece of A4 Basic White Thick card stock in half along the short edge and scored at 14.85cm to make two card bases. I then cut two 10cm x 14.3cm pieces of Old Olive card stock for the mat layer. Next I cut two 9.5cm x 13.8cm pieces of Basic White card stock for the card front.
How to make the first Ladybird Thank You Card
I started by stamping the large leaf image around the edge of the card using Granny Apple Green and Old Olive ink.
Next I stamped the triple flower image using Daffodil Delight ink.
Next I used the Stamparatus to stamp the ladybird body using Black Memento ink. By using the Stamparatus I was able to reink the stamp until I got a solid black image. I then stamped the wings using Real Red ink and the black dots using Black Memento ink. Next I punched out both images using the Ladybug Builder punch. I then stuck the wings onto the body using multipurpose glue and stuck the whole ladybird onto the card using Stampin Dimensionals.
How to make the second Ladybird Thank You Card
Again I used the large leaf image to stamp a border around the card front. Next I stamped the flowers using Daffodil Delight ink. This time I decided to stamp the smaller ladybird straight onto the card front. I used Black Memento ink for the ladybird outline and Real Red for the body. Next I masked off the leaves so I could stamp the ladybird image to look like there was a ladybird peeking out from behind the leaf.
Finishing off the Ladybird Thank You Cards
I then stuck each card front onto a mat layer before sticking to one of the card bases. Next I used the Thank You image from the Sweet Strawberry stamp set to stamp a sentiment onto Basic White card stock using Black Memento ink. I added the sentiment to each card front using Stampin Dimensionals.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing my Ladybird Thank You Cards. They were quite easy to make and I cannot wait to have a go at making the ones in the catalogue next.
