How to make a bumblebee with the Ladybug Builder punch


This month my Flowerbug's Team's swap theme was cards featuring an animal, bug or bird with a unique fold.  I decided to use the Hello Ladybug bundle for mine. Click here to see the bundle.  I changed the ladybug into a bumblebee!  

I shared how to make this card on last week's Facebook Live.  It's now on YouTube as well.  Click here to see it and two other cards featuring this cute Ladybug Builder punch.  

 

You may have seen this done before; it's so simple if you have some Black & White designer paper.  I colored the white stripes with a Dark Daffodil Delight Blends marker.  I used the Ladybug Builder punch to punch out the body circle and added it to the main Black Ladybug body.  

Then I punched out wings from Vellum.  I made them double wings by folding a piece of vellum in half and punching so the fold was intact.  The wings are adhered with a few mini glue dots. 

Details:

  • I used the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here for the hexagon shapes.  
  • Designer paper is the All Together 6 X 6" black & white paper seen here. 
  • The Bumblebee hexagon is textured with the Hive 3D embossing folder.
  • That hexagon embellishment on the greeting was pink. It's one of three colored in the Adhesive-backed Hexagon gems in the 2022 Jan-June catalog. I colored it with the Dark Daffodil Delight blends marker. 

 

This is an easy fun fold card to make.  And it makes great use of your Designer Paper – you can get 2 fronts from each 6 X 6" piece or 8 fronts from a 12 X 12" piece of paper.

  • Sending Smiles card; a fabulous & versatile bundle with video


    I made a bunch of these cards for a swap in April and also demonstrated it on FB Live last Tuesday here.  

    I LOVE the colors of Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis together.  This new lime color of Parakeet Party brightens up our color line and it works with blues & purples beautifully! 

    The Sending Smiles bundle seen here is wonderful and was #1 on my list of 'must have's'.

    I made three projects on last week's Facebook Live using this fabulous bundle.  See it here. 

    I love the fact that they provided two sizes of the die-cut 'Sending'.  The larger one fits under the finer die-cut like seen on the card below.  But it also fits the stamped greeting image too.  So smart!  

    You can create a variety of flowers with this bundle as you can see.  This flower can be falling like wisteria or growing up like these here; they remind me of grape hyacinth.  

    Click here or on the photo below to watch the video for this card and TWO MORE as well.

  • Unique diagonal card layout using your Designer Paper


    I've made a few of these cards lately; I just love the diagonal layout and how easy it is to stamp your greeting directly on the White layer.  

    It's made with the beautiful Hues of Happiness designer paper seen here.  It's been my top seller this month!  So far it's not on the low inventory list but I fear it will be the way it's going! 

    I cut some of these flowers directly from the DSP using the Blossoming Happiness dies; they match up perfectly to many of the flowers in the paper.  

    I made a bunch of these cards for swaps in May in both colors seen below. This way I could use two different sheets of paper since they provided flowers in many hues. 

    Tip: The nice thing about this layout is that you don't have to measure your diagonal cut on the White CS perfectly.  Mine are about 3/4" from the lower left and the upper right. 

    The Melon Mambo card on the upper left is part of my Hues of Happiness card kit to go seen below.  You get 1/2 pkg of this pretty DSP, a share of ribbon and Glossy dot gems in the kit for $28 plus shipping. Tomorrow (May 18th) is the last day to opt in for this pre-cut kit to go.  See details on it here.  

    I used the Happiness Abounds bundle for these cards.  See that here.  

    This card below is made with Fresh Freesia as it's card base.  There are a nice variety of colors in this designer paper; so many card stock & ink colors will work with it.

    Here are the measurements: 

    • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”
    • White front 5” X 2 ¾” cut in half about 3/4" from the lower left and upper right
    • DSP – 5” X 2 ¾”

  • Sweet Songbirds bundle with our newest Stampin’ Up! In Colors


    For my In Color display board I made these 5 cards with the new Sweet Songbirds stamp set & punch bundle.  

    These colors are so vibrant and striking; they are a wonderful addition to our Stampin' Up! color line.  

    I used this sketch for inspiration.  I find card sketches can be one of the easiest ways to create and design a card.  

    The squares of In Color Designer Paper are  2 1/4" and the White layers are 2 1/2".  The greeting strips are 5/8" X 4 1/4".  

    The sweet birds are stamped in each In Color and punched out with the Bird punch.  I punched the wings from our In Color Glimmer Ombre paper.
