Instructions:
- Journaling: If computer journaling the inside: Journal “I’m a little Buggy over you!” on copy paper, then temporarily glue an open blank card with the fold running horizontally so that the journaling will be on the bottom right corner of the inside of your card, and run through your copier again.
- Front: Use cosmetic wedges to apply silver and green paint across your stencil, then press the painted stencil onto black cardstock. Remove the stencil and let your “stamped” piece dry. Mat the sides on black suede and glue centered on your card. Add Dazzles™ and black velvet glitter ribbon, as shown.
- Use wedges to apply red paint liberally across black cardstock (not too thin, not too thick), then quickly apply white paint liberally to the ladybug stamp and stamp onto the red painted cardstock. Let dry, then cut out the ladybug with a 1/16” border, mat on suede and foam tape as shown.
- Apply white and red paint to the “Love Bug” greeting and stamp onto black cardstock. Use the oval and “Lola” label templates from the Design Tool Kit to trace and cut out the greeting and label. Mat each on suede and foam tape in place, as shown.
- Inside: Create another ladybug, place off the right side of your card and cut even with the card edge. Glue the other part of the ladybug to the opposite side, as shown. Add Dazzles™ and black velvet glitter ribbon, as shown.
