For the Stamper's Showcase Blog Hop we are CASEing the catalogue and I have chosen to use the Hello Ladybug card

Missing Ladybug for the Stamper’s Showcase Blog Hop

Posted on February 28, 2022February 28, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are CASEing a project from the catalogue. CASeing means either Copy and Share Everything, which basically means making the card as it is shown or Copy and Selectively Edit which means using the project as a jumping off point and adding your own spin to it. I have chosen the sweet, Missing Ladybug card from page 20 of the January – June Mini Catalogue and have made it my own by changing the colour combo.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the missing ladybug card, you will need:

Fresh Freesia card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅝” scored at 4⅛”
Gorgeous Grape card – 5⅝” by ½”
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 3”
Pool Party card – 3¼” by 1¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

Using the trio of flowers, I stamped up the front of the smaller Basic White panel with Gorgeous Grape ink.

The strip of Gorgeous Grape card was added to the left-hand side of the stamped panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was then mounted onto the Fresh Freesia card front on Dimensionals.

I added some Pool Party Sheer Ribbon to the top of the tag and a bow made from White Baker’s Twine. The tag was added to the card front on Dimensionals and I added a trio of 2021 – 2023 In Color Jewels to finish the card.

The sentiment, from the Awesome Otters stamp set was stamped in Coastal Cabana ink onto a scrap of Basic White paper and fussy cut out. I added it tucked under the tag.

I really like the card, I hope you like it too.
