happy monday! this week at BBTB2 our lovely susan has chosen our challenge, ladybugs. my fave lil bug  its what my dad used to call me :) be sure to check out the rest of the dts awesome projects :) and be sure to play along just follow the simple rules , use your cricut for your main cut and no back linking. easy peasy:)

heres a card i made
 i used doodle charms for these sweet lil ladies :)  the stamped sentiment is from whimsical designs everyday sentiments set. 
i used a MS border punch and made pearls using viva decor pearl pens on the card base and added a cuttlebugged panel for the ladybugs to crawl upon :)
thats it simple but you can never ever go wrong with a ladybug :)

This is a beautiful card Shelly! I love how you punched each side of the card, very unique looking, will have to try this technique!! I also love that embossing folder, your ladybugs are just too cute on it!! I wish I could get my Viva Pearl Pens to make such perfect looking pearls! You must have the technique down, they are perfect and round. Mine always want to flatten out and not stand up. Do you shake your pens??? Whatever your technique, it is plain to see that I don't have it! lol Hugs!!

Wow, Shelly this is really a lovely card. The entire effect is just striking and I find myself going back again and again to figure out HOW you did this! Love the embossing and the MS punch sides. Your ladybugs are darling. I am going to have to try the Viva pens! This is truly wonderful!
Hugs, Susan
