This is the card I made for Jan's fun "Calling all Ladybirds" tickle a teapotter challenge. As you can see, I used one of my bubble wrap backgrounds from when I was making samples for yesterday's TLC challenge.
I have to go to the optician this morning because my glasses frames broke when we were on holidays, and I'm working in the afternoon so I'll fill in some of the details in the fields later this evening. But anyway, the background was done with Brusho powders.
The image is Penny Black, stamped with Versafine Black on white Bristol board and coloured with Couleur d'Art pencils. There's Glossy Accents on the ladybirds. Matted on red card with black stitching lines.
I sponged the card base red and added lots of black dots. Foliage die is Cheery Lynn, and the ladybird die-cuts are Elizabeth Crafts. The red part is cut from an old book page sponged with red ink - I'll add a close-up shot of them in the challenge thread.

I like how you colored the image with touches of color, and your background came out so pretty. (I did try bubblewrap, black ink on red paper, but it just didn't work with the rest of my ladybug card. Maybe I'll find another use for it.)
