Hello Ladybug

Before I get carried away with the new mini catalogue and all my holiday crafting, I thought I’d use a stamp set from the Annual Catalogue that I haven’t used in a while… Hello Ladybug. This is such a fun bundle to craft with!

For this card I thought it’d be fun to pair it with the Fresh like a Daisy Designer Series Paper. I really like this Moody Mauve design… it’s like a field full of daisies. So I’m using Moody Mauve for my card base or course. And I added a little strip of Moody Mauve cardstock that I embossed with the Splatter 3D embossing folder.

To go with the Basic Black of my ladybugs I added some of the Black and White Gingham ribbon. The sentiment is from the Circle Sayings stamp set. And I stamped it with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. I surrounded that with some Moody Mauve flowers. And then I popped this up with a Moody Mauve frame and some Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added my Moody Mauve ladybugs with some more Dimensionals. And then I added some Wink of Stella and Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels to my flowers.

Hello Ladybug

I love the little ladybugs you can make with the Hello Ladybug stamps and punch. They’re super cute!!

Different Kind of Gatefold Card

I totally took advantage of this month’s Designer Series Paper sale from Stampin’ Up! There are so many options. But I was able to keep it to just 2 new packs of DSP. For today’s card I’m sharing one of those packs… Fresh like a Daisy. And I’m making a different kind of gatefold card. Fresh like a Daisy is such a great pack of patterned paper for this time of year! Lots of flowers and colours. It actually uses all of the new 2023-2025 In Colours AND some of the other new colours from the Colour Refresh.

To pick my colours I picked my piece of DSP first. I’m using one of the designs with Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat. I just love the large daisies on this design! And I love how this gatefold doesn’t meet in the middle like usual.

For the belly band I used a piece of Moody Mauve cardstock to match the card base. Then I put a little bit of the other side of the same sheet of patterned paper on top. And in the middle I used the Circle Sayings bundle. I stamped the floral image twice to make a Moody Mauve wreath. And then I stamped the sentiment with Wild Wheat ink. Once it was dry I punched it out with the coordinating punch and popped it up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. And to finish it off I added some Wink of Stella to my wreath.

I enjoy a good fun fold card and so making this different kind of gatefold card was fun!
