It looked good on paper...
I made a card for Carla's Sketch Challenge. My layout for my card looked good on paper. All I had to do was cut and measure the card stock and stamp my images. The pieces of the puzzle were falling into place and I was pleased with the outcome. Then I got this BIG Idea, why not make the lady bug wings have a gloss...you know like the real thing! I applied some WET LOOKS to the wings and the flowers and let it dry a few hours. I was not happy with the effect at all! I liked the glass sheen but I didn't like the lumpy finish. I wonder if I used too much? In the end this is what I have to offer. Thank you for stopping by:)

I clicked on your picture to get a closer look, and it looks great. I do not think the flowers are to lumpy. I think this turned out GREAT!!
I think your card looks fabulous! I really love the bright red color of your card and your ladybugs look awesome. Great layout too!
Hope you have a Happy Sunday Malieta!!

Your ladybirds look cute, and I love the spotty ribbon that you have used, and the paper piered holes! so pretty!
I couldn't tell it was lumpy till you said something, silly!! Next time don't tell! ;-) It's a fab card! I love the color combo and wish I had these papertrey stamps myself! ;-)
