An amazing flower from the Ladybug Builder punch? Yes!

I have been sharing many cards made with the Hello Ladybug stamp & punch bundle in the last few days.  I've gone a bit crazy with it lately!  If you missed them scroll to the next few posts before this one or watch the video here to see most of them.  

I've seen a few samples of flowers made with the Ladybug Builder punch and had to try one myself.  I love the dimension you get when you curl the 'wings' a bit!

It's definitely a 3D type flower; maybe suited best for a box or gift bag.  Wouldn't that be pretty!

I punched 'wings' from the Ladybug Builder punch from our Simply Marbelous designer paper.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February 28th.  See it here!  

SIMPLY MARBLEOUS 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

It's my top favorite item in our Sale-a-Bration catalog!  I love that each sheet is monochromatic on both sides; many shades of the same colors. Don't miss out on this amazing paper. 

I used quite a few punched wings to make these flowers.  Start with a 1 1/2" – 1 3/4" circle punch as a base to add them to, working your way from outside towards the center.  Be sure to curl them first with a bone folder.

This card is also a unique fun fold I'd never seen before.  I used our Stitched Rectangle dies to cut a partial window in the front fold.  You can get my tips on achieving this fold in the video seen here or below.

I used the Basic Patterns Decorative Masks seen here for my background.  Our blending brushes make this a breeze.

  • Gorgeous Butterflies with the Brilliant Wing dies

    I was playing around with these dies and came up with these striking colored butterflies.

    I used the designer paper as a template to sponge through.  This is what's left after you use the Brilliant Wings dies to cut out the 6 butterflies.  Although in hindsight I should have sponged on the other side so the die fit.  It was upside down on the die; I had to hold it up to the light to get the die placed correctly.

    I added a piece of White CS behind these butterflies and used the Stitched with Whimsy dies to add that pretty stitched edge.  See those here. 

    Click on the image below to see these items in my store. Remember this designer paper is available through May 3rd or while supplies last.

    The greeting is from the Vine Design stamp set on a 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade card stock.

  • This week’s card sketch for a quick, cute card!

    Are you a collector of pretty papers?  I've heard that many of you are!  I equate it to my fabric collecting days.  

    This card sketch idea (seen below) will help you use some of it; it's so simple!   

    March 4 sketch Butterfly Bijou Save

    I used the Double Oval punch for the greeting which unfortunately is unavailable right now; they've run out!  But it will be at the end of March.  The stamped greeting is from the Enjoy the Moment stamp set on page 59 in the Spring catalog. This pretty Grape ribbon is also unavailable; it should be back  next week. 

    I chose to use the new Butterfly Bijou designer paper; an exclusive paper not seen in any catalog.  It's available here through May 3rd or while supplies last.  It's a 48 pack of 6 X 6" papers.  I love the soft spring-like colors.

    Measurements are:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Gorgeous Grape 5 1/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Designer Paper 3 pieces at 1 1/2" X 3 7/8"

    You could use this sketch with stamped or textured card stock instead of designer paper.  I would cut a full 4 1/2" X 3 7/8" piece of card stock, stamp it and then cut it into 1 1/2" strips.
