Quick Ladybug Cards

It is so easy to make these ladybug cards using the Echo Park 6x6 paper pad, ephemera pack, and stamp set that I purchased at HM Ben Franklin Crafts.  The papers are two sided so the insides of these cards are pretty, too.  I simply folded the 6x6 sheets in half and the card blank was formed.

The ephemera word cards are perfectly sized to simply adhere to each card.  The sayings on them are so sweet and appropriate.  Although barely visible in the photo, one of the stamps was used to make the flight paths of the ladybug and it was heat embossed with silver sparkle powder.

The inside of this card also has an ephemera card plus a stamped and fussy cut lady bug that was stamped with a wood handled stamp that I discovered in my stash of bug stamps.

For the card on the left I added the ephemera and three Jolee glittered ladybug stickers.  To make the ladybugs on the second card stand out, I coated the stamped, colored, fussy cut images with Glossy Accents.  These cards fit well into the pastel colored envelopes that can b purchase at Daiso for only $1.75 a pack.  I know that I can make an enormous amount of spring ladybug cards using these Echo Park products. HM Ben Franklin Crafts has lots of choices of themed papers and matching items so you need to go to the stores and check everything out.  I'm sure you'll be in shopper's heaven and surprise yourself by making some wonderful handmade papercrafts.  See you at HM BFC!
