Sketch Saturday - Hello Ladybug

This is the card that I made for this week’s sketch challenge. I love the black and white with the pop of red.

 
 

The sketch is from the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. I love when they have a slim line card as their sketch.

 
 

The Hello Ladybug Stamp set has such cute images and sentiments. I used my Stamparatus to get the solid black image so I could repeat and get really good coverage. There’s a coordinating punch that punches the ladybug and wings.
