It's been a couple of weeks since I had time in the craft room. I decided to stretch this card to cover a number of challenges, starting with Lisa's Let's Warm It Up Ways to Use it challenge. I chose heat embossing to warm things up. This is also for Ally's Sketch challenge, Jan's Teapot Party and Sabrina's Bubble Wrap Technique challenge.
I pounced black ink on bubble wrap for my bg paper. Stamped the friendship word panel. Stamped and embossed the lady bugs and used black gel pens to get the dots shiny too. The hugs die cut is a RAK, thank you Brenda (tessaduck)! Assembled my panels and added some embossed little ladybugs to complete. TFL
Lots of opportunities to play along, hope you'll join us!

What a fun card, Carla. I like how your bubble wrap background came out. I tried black on red as well, but I must have had a much heavier hand than you used and it was too busy for the teapot card I had made.

Lady bugs have a special meaning in our family so your card really caught my eye. It's darling, and your embossing provides that extra dimension to our ladyship *tehe* Very nice card and I'm so glad you were able to enter your card in several challenges.

This is so cute. I have had the word background since the moment I came out, and I've never used it. Carla, thanks for the inspiration. Your card is so cute .
