Make your own embellishments over at Totally Ladybug Tuesday!

Today over at Totally Ladybug Tuesday the gorgeous and talented Anita has challenged us to make our own embellishments!  And here are the flowers I made for my card...

 
 


Aren't they gorgeous?!!  These are the new My Favorite Things Die-namics rolled daisy die and the leaf dies from the Upsy Daisy die set (bought mine from Dies to Die For here and here).  I matched them up with Flower Ruby who is carrying similar flowers - perfect match! 

You can see the other DT makes here- they are gorgeous!


Before I go, just wanted to mention that there is a new challenge blog called Deep Ocean challenge which is fortnightly (more time to complete those projects in time!) and of course opportunities to win candy!  It's being run by the ever talented Elena and Alberto so there is sure to be tons of inspiration!  It starts on 7 June so I hope you can join in the fun!


I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, My Minds Eye Stella & Rose Hattie (from Quixotic Paperie here)
Stamps:  Ladybug Crafts Ink Flower Ruby, LCI It's Only Words 2 sentiment
Mediums: Copics
Accents: 8mm beads (from Quixotic Paperie here)
Tools: My Favorite Things daisy flower and leaf dies (from Dies to Die For here and here), Martha Stewart border punches, Stampin Up label punches, Nestabilitie dies
