Hi Gals, Karen with you today to share how I made cute little bugs with Dew Drops. These little bugs can make any cute spring project even cuter. A few lines or dots can transform a plain tear drop into a bee or a ladybug. Grab your black permanent marker and get ready to add some simple details. Check out my garden for some other creepy critters too. Let’s get buzzy!
Supplies:
Red Tear Drops
Olive Mini Dew Drops
Directions:
1. Use black ink to stamp a row of flowers along the lower edge of white card stock. Color the flowers as desired.
2. Trim and adhere to green glitter card stock leaving a narrow border and then attach to a card base.
3. Adhere an appropriate sentiment to the upper right corner.
4. Create a bee: Use a permanent black marker to add stripes to a yellow tear drop. Add 2 clear tear drops to create wings and 1 black round dew drop to create the head. Adhere them with clear drying liquid adhesive. (TIP: Rotate the bee’s body to make bees facing both left & right)
5. Create a ladybug: Use a permanent black marker to add spots to 2 red tear drops. Attach them and add a single black dew drop for the head.
6. Adhere a row of small green dew drops to create a crawling caterpillar. To create a spider, adhere 2 black dew drops to create the spider’s body. Finally, use a thin tip black marker to draw antenna, eyes, or feet as needed on the background paper.
