Cute as A Bug

Hi friends I have a card that I'm featuring over at My Craft Spot today, this is my cute ladybug card.

This weeks challenge over at My Craft Spot is "Cute as a Bug" so this card goes right along with that theme, to see the challenge post click -HERE.

For my card I'm using the My Craft Spot Postage Stamp stamp set and coordinating metal dies along with the Bubble Gum crinkle ribbon.

 The image is cut from Kate's ABCs cricut cartridge at 3 1/4" such a cute little ladybug scenery. I used two of the horizontal postage stamp die images and stamped the Happy and Hello from the Postage Stamp stamp set.  All images were inked using Tim Holtz vintage photo distress ink.

To finish off I added Bubblegum crinkle ribbon, I added a strip of double stick tape with my ATG gun, then slowly added the ribbon and wrinkled it as I went along to give it a really fun ruffled look.

Thanks for stopping by and remember You're Invited to the Stamp Release Party June 24-29 at My Craft Spot

Have an awesome day!

Thinking of You - My Craft Spot Project

Hello crafty friends I'm excited to share another project with you using Stamps from My Craft Spot.

This weeks challenge at My Craft Spot

Embossing

Heat or Dry Embossing (or Glossy Accents)

I've had the Cricut cartridge Kate's ABCs for quite a while so I thought it was about time I used it. My flower pot is from pg. 67 of the handbook, cut at 4 1/2"

I love to use my cuttlebug embossing folders, they add such a fun texture, the two folders that I used were Argyle and Swiss Dots. I added a bit of inking to the edges of the embossed pot and lightly over the top.

 I added some fun zig-zag stitching using my sewing machine. The border punch is from EK Success Dotted Scallop.  I added dimensional adhesive behind the pot and flowers to give it a bit of a lift off the card.

 I used two of My Craft Spot stamp sets, Friends & Neighbors Inside & Out and Tiny Tags. I used the Tiny Tags Metal Dies for the tag and added the Natural Jute Twine on the little tag.  All of these items are for sale at My Craft Spot -HERE.
