Lady Bug Luck

In Germany, Lady Bugs are a symbol of Good Luck and since I'm not Irish, I thought the Lady Bugs more appropriate for this month.  The Lady Bugs are from Stampin Up's Darling Dots set and done with Sparkle N Sprinkle's Firecracker Red Embossing Powder, dotted with some no name black glitter.  The HB sentiment is from Sparkle N Sprinkle's birthday stamp set #416   and is embossed with SNS Ice Rink. The cardstock colors are Bashful Blue, Gumball Green and Green Galore.  The background leaves are cut with my Silhouette.  Someday I hope to be able to figure out how to use the print and cut feature!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

    This is so cute and the ladybugs are darling. Love the leaves in the background too. I've always heard that ladybugs are lucky too - so hoping they bring you lots of good luck.

    Gerlinde, this is a super sweet card! Love ladybugs - they are a necessity down here, and I heartily "cultivate" their colonies. Not sure what we would do without them. When I get an electronic cutter, I'd like to get a silhouette, too. Does it cut SVG files also? Lovely spring card, my friend. (are your parents feeling better? it's been a few weeks since we last spoke) hugs, de
