Seeking after that sweet golden clime…

Sharing a card featuring a sweet little image from Bugaboo Stamps called Bug Kidz Daisy 2.

I’ve the honour of being a guest DT this month at Cheerful Sketches and here’s the sketch.

With the pretty flower dress and the ladybugs on the image I went with a real summery feel to my card.  Summer in Australia is a time of bright, bright sunshine, green grass and fiery red sunsets so I’ve used those colours.  As my card features ladybugs (something with wings) I’m entering it in the current challenge at The Crafter’sCafé.

Ladybugs are also animals so that takes care of part of the requirement at Animal Friends and I also have the added theme of a die cut (two in fact with my oval and banner).  With my ribbon elements I’m also covered for the theme at Stamping Sensations so am linking up my card there too.
