I'm late for a very important date!!! The Muddermark's teaparty is at a country estate in New York. We also have a mission...to save Ladybug Lou-La-Bella Rock-a-Fella from the clutches of a Bug Thug....I'm sure a real gooie one at that!!! Lou's Mom is going to have a tea and invite lots of friends to save the day!! All Lady Bugs are welcome so I brought along 21 plus 4 ladybug buttons to qualify this for the DDC challenge this week. Fran (Francie G.) is the hostess and her challenge to us this week is to use buttons on your card. Be sure to add DDC to the keywords section so it will go to the DDC gallery! The ladybugs were all stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with a red copic. The black frame and red background were both run through the Cuttlebug with the Dotted Swiss folder and the Swirls folder. Ribbon tabs, and the ladybug buttons finish it off. TFL and be sure to gather up all the ladybugs you know and come to the tea party!!!

Does it mean I have too many stamps when I forget that I have one, such as Very Puny? (did I really type that? Gasp!)
Your card is adorable, Joan! All of your ladybugs are so cute, and I love the bg dp. I've got the protective dust for your little ladies, if you're interested.
Oh, and better late than nevah to the pah-tee, I say!

Wow - you brought a bunch of ladybugs! They are beautifully done and I love those buttons too. The layout is terrific - I am going to have to case that for sure (as soon as I get some cool tools to be able to do frames like these - they are on my birthday list so wish me luck). This is a wonderful card for this challenge - I love it!
