Hey Lady Ladybug Card and Gift Tag - CTD642

Hey there, crafty friends! Today I’m sharing a fun birthday card and gift tag set that I created for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge where we have some sweet colors for all of us to create with.

The Lawn Fawn stamp sets I used to create my card and tag are Hey Lady with the Hey Lady dies along with the How You Bean? for the jar with the How You Bean dies. I used some red striped Doodlebug Designs paper which I die cut using the Outside In Stitched Rectangle dies and I also used those dies to die cut my white card stock rectangle that I blended with kitsch flamingo distress oxide ink. The sentiment and the leaves, stick, thought bubble and larger ladybug are from the A Bug Deal stamp set with the A Bug Deal dies.

I used the Grassy Hillside Borders die with some new leaf card stock for under my jar and stamped the happy birthday sentiment onto a die cut Everyday Sentiment Banners. The tag for my bag of chocolate ladybugs was die cut using the Stitched Circle Tags and red card stock with a smaller stitched circle die cut using the Outside In Stitched Circle dies. On the tag I popped up the leaf and ladybug with foam tape and on the card I popped up the jar and the three ladybugs inside.
