Morning all, It's my turn to host Totally Ladybug Tuesday this fortnight!
There's a new Digi release today
"Floral Delights Too"
The theme for this fortnight is
I coloured up my gorgeous image,
"Watering Can Tulip Delights" using Copics
I embossed my white cardstock using a large dot embossing folder and added a touch of glossy accents to the coloured bugs.
I thought it would be fun to add the Ladybug from the image to the envelope. This is such an easy thing to do, I just used copy paper to print out the image moving the digi so that it appeared to the bottom right hand side of the sheet. Once this was done I positioned my envelope over the printed image working out where I wanted the bug to be and used masking tape to hold it in place a post it note was then placed over where the rest of the image would print. (It's a good idea to remove some of the sticky from the masking tape so that it doesn't mark the envelope when it's removed, this can be done by simply sticking it to your clothing first so that it picks up a little of the lint)
I have to say that I love this image, I'd hoped to have had time to show you a selection of ways that you could use it, I'll do my best to find time before next Tuesday and add them to a reminder!
I 'm using my card for the following challenges:-
JSCB, Down in the garden,
AGOAC56,For the girls.
Thanks for stopping by,

Julie, your beautifully colored floral delight image looks fabulous on this sweet pink and white birthday card. Lovin' how you've added a ladybug to the envelope too! TFS! Hugz, ~ Rose
Loved your posting over at LadyBugs! FUNNY!
Great combo for a challenge. And of course your card is my favorite. Very pretty image you colored in - and love love the additional flora added to the side. You are so very clever! AND the envelope? It would have taken me a days of figuring, testing, trying, crying and general foot stamping to get that placed in just the right spot. Kudos!
That is very nice !
