Button Ladybug Valentine

By Holly Gagnon on January 29, 2014 in Mixed Media, Valentine’s Day

Holly here from Ribbons & Glue sharing with you a 3D Button Ladybug Valentine that is sure to make the “Love Bug” come out of you.

I’ve has this wood ladybug for a while now and always thought it would look really cute with Buttons Galore black Haberdashery Buttons on it. I finally busted her out of hiding and did just that.

How to make a Button Ladybug Valentine:

I dyed the Ladybug Cherry Red using Rit Dye.

Then, painted the body of the ladybug with DecoArt Glamour Dust paint

and adhered black Haberdashery Buttons from Buttons Galore.

I hot glued the pretty lil’ Lady on a wood block to make it into a 3D Valentine and added a few embellishments from the Pebbles Inc Yours Truly collection.

I love the smell of pretty paper, drinking Chai Tea and making unique things out of whatever I can find. I'm a dollar store junkie who loves to design with Kraft paper, textures, burlap, inks, ribbons, buttons, glitter and anything that can be up-cycled. I'm excited to be a part of this Buttons Galore & More Design team. I hope my ideas inspire you.
