Ladybug cards

I have been having so much fun making cards with this sweet ladybug

set from Stampin Up.  The top card is a birthday card for my granddaughter, 

I used temporary adhesive as she likes to remove the images and I thought

she would enjoy rearranging them.  The puzzle I sent to the grandkids last

week along with some other activities.  The last set of cards were sent 

to friends to brighten their day.

I  hope all of you are staying healthy in this unusual time.

The House That Stamps Built

 This week is a darling spring  photo inspiration from Wendy at

The House That Stamps Built:

I was inspired by both the photo and colors.  I started with a stenciled

background using a Dylusions Stencil-Fronds of Foliage in

shades of gray.  I stamped Repeat Impressions Bird Song

and colored it with Copics.  A die cut  with Stamp In Ups

Layering Oval dies with patterned paper  and punched 

corners to match.
