Ladybird Card!

Hey all, sorry for the late post tonight - i have been out tonight with my family for a yummy Thai meal for my little sisters birthday!!

Tonight i have a project to share with you that i will be demo'ing tomorrow at a Stampin' Up! demo sharing session. It's a ladybird card created using the 'Large Scallop Die':

I started off with a 'Whisper White' cardbase which i shaped using the 'Large Scallop Die'. I punched the ladybirds head from some 'Basic Black' card using the '1-3/4" Circle Punch' and created his antenae using the 'Two-Step Bird Punch' (the branch part of the punch' and glued them to the top of the cardbase. Next i ran some 'Real Red' 'DSP' through the 'Big Shot' with the the 'Large Scallop Die' to create the ladybird wings, i punched several '1/2" Circles' from 'Basic Black' card and then attached them to the wings using 'Dimensionals' to create a 3D effect. Next up i attached the wings to the cardbase using a 'Real Red' 'Brad'. Finally i stamped the sentiment from the 'Happiest Birthday Wishes' stampset using 'Basic Black' ink.

I hope the ladies like this project when i share it with them tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to a crafty day, i can't wait to share all our projects with you!!
