This insect collection is for Teapot Tuesday and is being sent to a fellow teapotter (Julie/Julesanne) who is going to have a serious back surgery.
Just like Mothermark, I couldn't decide between the 3 teapots so I combined them all. The image layer is the big honking ladybug teapot and is stamped with Crafty Secrets, the leafy layer is pretty obvious which teapot and is stamped with Flourishes stamps, the sunflower teapot is the embellishment and the daisy and ladybug are stamped with Flourishes. The ladybug bg paper is just red cardstock with red dots drawn on.

I love all the ladybugs - and your combination of all the teapots turned out great - you and Mothermark - great and crafty minds think alike!! The DP paper you created is wonderful and your ladybugs scattered around look so real and sweet! Wonderful card!

Oh, this is wonderful! So many great lady bugs and the dots on the paper are clever. It is a WOW for sure.
(My apologies - for some reason, I am getting double posts some times - and I notice that on some of my cards as well.)
