Our Creatively Simple theme this month is “Critters or insects”! I’m loving this theme!
SPRINGTIME SCENES
I had forgotten to get this Ladybug Picnic Embossing Folder on my first preorder, so just picked it up recently!
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Bubble Bath cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Strawberry Slush cardstock was embossed with the Ladybug Picnic EF and added to the front.
- A 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Homemade Sweetness DSP was added down the right side.
- A 1 x 4-1/4 strip of Basic Black was adhered next to it.
- The circle was cut with the Springtime Scenes Die from Basic White cardstock and stamped with the Springtime Scenes greeting in Strawberry Slush Ink.
- The leaf was cut with the Die from Old Olive cardstock and added under the greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The ladybug was stamped with Memento Black Ink on scrap Basic White and colored with Strawberry Slush and Basic Black Stampin’ Blends. It was added to the leaf with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the leaf.
- A trio of Strawberries & Dots were added to the background.
This came together really quickly, especially since I had most the piece pre-cut from another project! OK check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
