Ladybug Slimline Interactive Card

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Today’s card uses the new dies of Playful Pop-Up, Greeting Labels, and Bug Borders as well as previously released Long Rectangles – Crosshatch. The sentiments are from the new stamp set – Bug Greetings. The dies and stamps will be available for pre-order starting November 24, 2025.

Watch the process video to see how I made these cards.

Cardbase: Cut from black cardstock a 7.5 x8.5-inch rectangle. Score and fold at 3.75-inches to form a 3.75×8.5-inch slimline cardbase. Using the largest of the Long Rectangles – Crosshatch dies, cut four from patterned paper. Adhere the rectangles to all four panels of the card.

Playful Mechanisms: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut three of the largest die and three of the “K” piece die from a green cardstock. Cut the decorative notched square die from patterned paper. Follow the video above to assemble.

Ladybugs:  There are two sizes of ladybugs used on this card. The larger ones come from the Playful Pop-Up set and include dies to make them with legs, without legs and flying. The smaller ladybugs come from the Bug Borders set. (I cut two strips of the border ladybugs, five of the bugs with legs and five of the bugs without legs. I made one of the without legs bodies into a flying ladybug.) Watch the video above for assembly instructions.

Sentiments: The card sentiments are all stamped in blank ink using the Bug Greetings stamp set and cut out using the Greeting Labels die set. Watch the video above for details on attaching the sentiments to the cards.

Envelope: The card fits into a #10 business size envelope.
