Friendship Ladybug Card

 Hello crafty friends, I hope you were all doing well.   I wanted to use my new stitched trail dies (Lawn Fawn) so I came up with this card today.
I wanted to keep this card pretty simple to accentuate the buzz trails and ladybugs.  The big ladybug is from Cricut - Doodlecharms cartridge but I added the antennas with one of my swirly die-cuts that I cut some swirls from.   The large stitched rectangle is from Simon says stamp – bundle of stitched shapes.   The layered flower is from a die set, I added little wooden ladybugs and a pretty red pearl center for the flower.

On the inside  I used that same stitched rectangle Mat from Simon says Stamp.  The inside sentiments plus the yellow flower are from the same stamp set as the front.  I added another stitched buzz line inside, the  ladybug is a small die ... cut in red and inked over with black.  The white mat is also a die-cut from a frame set.  The red flower trailing stamps are from a stamp set I got years ago from a card maker kit.   Inking on edges both front and inside are with Tim Holtz walnut stain distress ink.
