I caught it!

Welcome!

Happy Sunday! This was a pretty fast and fun card until I decided that I should take our new Caught a Bug Greeting seriously and lasso my ladybug!




I started by stamping my white cs with our new Polka Dot Background right across the center using black ink. I stamped above and below with our Ladybug Background. After coloring the bugs and leaves, I sponged on a little black ink around the edges and layered it on black and then attached it to a folded red card. I stamped the saying using red ink and sponged those edges as well.

Next I stamped and colored our Ladybug Stackup and cut out the 2nd largest. Here came the "tricky" part. When I decided to lasso the bug I didn't have any twine small enough, so I grabbed my dental floss and a brown Bic marker and made my rope (it's minty if you get close enough :) and then tied it to the bug. It kept slipping off my layer until I used a square punch and made small notches where I wanted it to stay!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
