I decided to make a Birthday card that fits me to a "T" , ha ha!  I stamped one of the sentiments repeatedly off setting each line in Black ink.  I then stamped the single lady bug on the leaf and chose to only color the lady bug to stick with my Black Red and White theme.  I added some Martha Stewart Paper Tape... FROM CHRISTMAS... make sure you check your supplies, just because it's in the Christmas aisle doesn't make it just for Christmas (*wink*)

I used some dies for the image and matting, some Glossy Accents for the Lady Bug to make her shiny.  I have to share a funny with you.  Sunday night while sitting outside enjoying Mother's Day with the family after work, my daughter all of a sudden says, "I smell ladybugs!"  I gotta tell ya, I am NOT sure where she gets this from, but we hoo hawed over that for quite awhile.  She then goes on to say, she used to sit next to a kid in school that smelled like Lady bugs and Dirt.... Hmmm..... ???  lol  ANYWAY, you came here for the card so let's get to it.  After leaving a comment (winner winner chicken dinner for some lucky commenter SOMEwhere...) check out the link and hop along to see all the other fantastic cards my Fellow DT'ers have created.. JUST for YOU!!!! :)
