Happy Monday

CLICK HERE for the  DL.ART Thankful Thursday #110 challenge SPLASH ending June 4, 2013


Good Morning Friends,


Wow was this ever fun to make. These were all scraps except for my little lady bug.  I made a mistake on the lady bug and did her background in green, but decided to add a green button to pull the whole design together. I love how mistakes work. I like this better than my original idea which would have been a pink and the hearts would have just gotten lost.  My lady bug is cut at 1.6 from the Create-A- critter cart 2, printed using the imagine imagine more cards.
All my scraps are from PTI and my base is stampers select white. The sentiment is from beautiful blooms in canyon clay ink and the buttons are from the little red cottage.
The crinkle ribbon is from 3 girl jam Halloween bundle- It just doesn't look Halloween here does it.  All of my banners are cut from a PTI die called sketched shapes die.. The twine is Queen and Company




Here is a side view I used foam tape for my lady bug

    Never would have guessed the green was a mistake! I like it! Mistakes often turn out to be good in crafting, I think, expanding the possibilities. Your ladybug is darling :) Glad you played with us at BBTB2-I always enjoy seeing your projects!

    Diana - how fun is this! I think the green in the lady bug is great - when I had an art class in college (mandatory class - I am far from an artist) we were told to fix out mistakes - so I learned to fudge it up and still do in crafting - you did a wonderful job -thanks for the hop and the opportunity to win a prize - enjoy your week!

    Saw your card on Make it Monday. So cute, colorful and fun! Love all the banners, ribbons and the lady bug! It's even cuter on your blog than in the little thumbnail! Great for all those 1/2" scraps when you make an A2 card with a 6x6 paperpad!
