A Lady Bug Hello

Feb. Sketch H2O

If you’re a follower, then you know I love a Sketch Challenge!

Over at: Crazy4Challenges Every third Saturday is a sketch challenge!

I am the Hostess for February so this is the sketch I came up with. I thought it would be pretty easy since you could make it any theme that you want.

The Steps:

Step 1: Make the card base by choosing an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of cardstock and scoring it at 5.5″ along the long side. Fold over for a book fold card and trim to the finished size of 5.5″ x 7″.

Step 2: I cut a strip of brown cardstock that measures 7″ x 5/8″ and adhered it to the base front 1/2″ from the folded edge of the base card front. I added the leaves from a discontinued die set from ECD called Curvy Leaves.

Step 3: The 3 squares are from die cutting the smallest square from: 1118 – Stitched Squares

Step 4: The lady bugs are an Elizabeth Craft Designs discontinued die set.

Step 5: The “Hello” sentiment is from: Lawn Fawn
