A Stickles Challenge!!


The challenge today over at the All That Scraps blog is to use Stickles somewhere on your design. Um....that's not a toughie, is it? I use Stickles a lot and my fave colour is Stardust! What's yours??

I decided to use one of the new Gingersnaps Bugg-a-Boos....this little ladybug is SO cute!! I stamped her on Wausau using Memento ink and coloured her in with my Copics. I used my Curved Rectangle Nestabilities to cut her out and emboss her. Then I made my own background paper by using Real Red for the base and punched out 1/2 inch circles from Basic Black cardstock and arranged them in a polka dot or 'ladybug' pattern. Super easy! I used the dotted hearts and the sentiment from the Ladybug Friends stamp set. They go together perfectly!!




I added some black gingham ribbon, pop dotted everything and finished things off by adding Stardust Stickles to all the spots on her shell and on the hearts! Now, who should I send Ladybug Hugs to?

Be sure to hop on over to the ATS Blog later on today to check out what some of the other gals have whipped up for this challenge!!

Well, I'm off to work again today. Did you all get to see the results show for Dancing with the Stars?? I'm so glad Melissa is in the finals. I want her to win.

Have a super day!!
