Farewell to Hello Ladybug

Hello stampers,

For today's card, I'm featuring 4 retiring products, along with 1 that is already retired but can easily be substituted with something else.

I started with a scrap of Basic White Cardstock that I die-cut using the Everyday Details Dies. I stamped the ladybug body from the retiring Hello Ladybug Stamp Set directly on the circle using Memento Black Ink, then used the retiring Ladybug Builder Punch to punch the wings out using Real Red Cardstock, stamped the dots using Memento Black Ink again then added Stampin' Dimensionals to attach to the body. Next, I embossed a Real Red Cardstock square using one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders, then attached it to a Basic Black Cardstock square. I used the retiring Basic Border Dies to add a shorter edge to the Basic White Cardstock base, then used Real Red Ink & Blending Brushes to add color to the retired Black & White Designs DSP to mimic the ladybug wings which was added to the inside of the card as a peek-a-boo piece. Lastly, I added a sentiment from the retiring Apple Harvest Stamp Set using Memento Black Ink.
