These cards are for Mothermark's teapot challenge and also the color challenge today. I have to admit I was a little stumped at first when we were to bring ladybugs to the tea party, and then I remembered that I had this little ladybug border stamp. I planned to add a punch-art ladybug, but I ended up with flowers instead. Hmm.. thanks to Holstein, for giving me the tip on getting the petals from Build a Blossom to form a nicely shaped flower!
Thanks for the awesome challenges today, Cindy and Karen, and Joan too since I managed to sneak in the technique challenge on one of the cards, the one without ladybugs! I inked an oval stamp with coral ink and my cb embossing folder with cranberry crisp and then kissed the ef onto the stamp, and then stamped my ww.
These cards will be going to teapotter Julie, and to another SCS member who is having surgery today.
Thanks for looking~

Love how you worked in those ladybugs so subtly in the card on the right. I'm not sure what the technique this week was, but your card looks fab, so I'm going to have to investigate.
