Plan A was to use Boatloads of Love with a few ladybirds on the deck - but I've been dealing with a family emergency ever since I got back from holidays, and time and energy are at a premium. So plan B, reading about Henry's cat called Ladybug, was to use this Fluffles with ladybugs stamp. I originally had some nice patterned red paper for the red letter, but when unclogging my glue bottle I spilled some onto it :-(.
All the bugs have Glossy Accents, and I added two decorative corner elements as requested by Polly.

Sabrina, you made a beautiful card for Henry, I really love plan B with all the ladybugs, I know Henry is going to love the cat holding some of the ladybugs. The red and blue bg really sets the scene. I hope all goes well for you with your emergency at home

This is adorable and that image is perfect! All those ladybugs make me smile. The corner accent is great...I have that one and haven't used it in forever...not sure why. He'll love this card.

I can't imagine Plan A being better this. I adore Fluffles and he looks so happy frolicking with his ladybug friends. I usually prefer some texture in bg layers; but sometimes the smooth cardstock looks best and I think that's definitely the case here. I love the layering of the bright red with the medium blue and all the decorative flourishes. He's going to grin ear-to-ear when he sees this gem. Fabulous card.
Big hugs to you and your family. I hope your family emergency is resolved and that everyone is safe, happy and well. {{heart}}
