Welcome to Global Design Project! This week we have a fun, color challenge: Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana, and Smoky Slate.

For some reason, I thought of a ladybug, because her body could be gray, rather than black, and her wings could be pink, rather than red. Plus, she could munch on leaves that were bluish green. 

I began by using the Ladybug Builder Punch to cut the ladybug from Smoky Slate Cardstock. Her wings are from the Hello Ladybug Stamp Set, which I stamped in Flirty Flamingo Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used the Ladybug Builder Punch for cutting. Then, I glued her wings at her neck, and raised them with Dimensionals.

The leaves were created with an “online exclusive” set, Tropical Leaf, also a stamp set with a punch.

Whimsical Ladybug

 

For the background, there is a layer of Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, given a border with the second largest Stitched Whimsy Die. This is an interesting die set, because it makes an impression in the paper, rather than cutting all the way through the paper.

 

“You can bug me any time” is from the Hello Ladybug Stamp Set. I stamped it in Smoky Slate Ink, used a Sending Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.

The final touch was adding three white, Classic Matt Dots.
