Good Morning Everyone.
Thank you for your amazing comments on my Giant Ladybird card. This ladybird heart came about as i couldn't waste all the little off cuts from my giant one so i turned my red mirri into little ladybirds(or ladybugs - not sure why we call them ladybirds here in the UK). Then wondering how to use them i got asked to make a non traditional anniversary card - so a ladybird heart was born. Sadly the photos don't show the mirror card at its best.
7x7" scalloped cardbase. On a white panel of card i lightly drew around a heart die with a pencil so i had the shape to follow. I then stamped my sentiment in the middle. I then arranged my ladybirds around the heart. I filled in the little gaps using all the little 'holes' that fell out of the die cut ladybirds as they look like little gems. I added one in each of the corners too. 3 black flower gems to embellished. I then mounted this panel onto more of the red mirror card, black and then the base card.
A close up, you can see the colour a bit better. I do love alcohol inks on mirror card😁 The sentiment stamp came free with a magazine years ago.
Items Used:
Elizabeth Crafts Ladybird dies
Sentiment stamp
Tim Holtz alcohol inks
Gold mirror card
Payper box bloack card
CraftUk ltd 7x7 scalloped card blank
