Lady Bug




It's another challenge from
If you Give a Crafter a Cookie.

Here is the cookie for the theme of this challenge. 




For my card, I started with a piece of white cs and an Inkadinkado stamp.  I stamped 2 ladybugs in Walnut Stain and one in Dusty Concord distress and covered both with clear embossing powder.  I then blended Wilted Violet and Brushed Sage distress inks across the paper -- trimmed it down -- and framed it with dark purple cs.
I cut a bunch of various leaves with my Cricut using Luau and Cricut Sampler cartridge.  I then blended Crushed Olive, Forest Moss and Peeled Paint.
I cut a front panel out of black cs and covered it with a paper from American Craft. I set the inked piece to the side and tucked the leaves down the side.
The sentiment was stamped in gold embossing powder with a stamp from MFT and cut into a flag.
All set on the same dark purple cs side fold base.  I added a couple of white flowers for accents.

I hope you have fun playing along with the challenge.

I would like to add this card to the following challenges if I may:
