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.

  • Mountain Air; a gorgeous scene

    You might know that I love creating scenic cards.  Even though my nickname is 'Flowerbug' that's because I am a gardener; not because I love flowers.  I do!  But when making cards I actually lean towards botanicals or scenes with trees and water.  This card is a perfect example of my 'style' using the Mountain Air bundle seen here.  

    I created it on my Facebook Live two weeks ago.  It's super easy to make!  Here's a link to it on FB.  

    Mountain air 1 Save

    The colors here are Seaside Spray, Night of Navy and Whisper White.  I did use one of the dies from the Mountain Air bundle; that pretty detailed tree.  I also sponged the mountains and trees a bit then stamped the trees again upside down in White Craft ink for 'water'.  The greeting is from the Well Said stamp set.

    I love this set so much I am featuring it in March. Anyone who purchases the Mountain Air stamp set or bundle from me (past or in March) qualifies to receive the 10 cards project tutorial.  And all online orders (of any amount) will also receive it!

  • Inlaid technique video with Mountain View!

    This gorgeous card was one of our January Card Club projects.  Of course I love the colors of Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock. 

    I cased the idea from Cheryl Miller at Sense of Whimsy. 

    January Mountain Air Save

    Here's how to make this pretty card. 

    1. First die-cut two trees from the main White panel one on the upper left and one on the lower right.
    2. I sponged one of these die-cut white trees with Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple ink for the center tree. 
    3. Then die-cut two more trees from the Lily Impressions designer paper (free with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration).  
    4. Adhere the White panel to the Coastal Cabana panel and then to the main Green card base. 
    5. Insert the two die-cut trees into the left and right die-cut areas for an inlaid effect.  (I recommend Fine Tip glue or Multipurpose adhesive)
    6. There's a trick to getting this unique greeting shape with the Tailored Tag punch.  I share it on the video below. 
    7. I used the Sending you Thoughts stamp set and heat embossed the greeting. 

    Watch the video below for many more tips on creating this fabulous card. 

     

    The Mountain Air bundle is my special for March.  Everyone who purchases it from me will receive a free 10 cards tutorial!  Past and present orders count!  You can see it here.
