Sketch Saturday & Secret Crafter

Bit last minute with both of these but hopefully not too late! This card is for Sketch Saturday and Secret Crafter, following the sketch from Sketch Saturday and the theme from Secret Crafter, which is cute bugs - I have a little ladybird on there for my 'bug'!

This is supposed to be for my uncle's birthday but I'm not totally sure it's 'grown up' enough - my new Stampavie stamps arrived yesterday and I just couldn't wait to play with them!

I've also experimented a little bit with this one - it's my first attempt at hand stitching on a card and I'm also trying to improve my photos. Normally I take them with the flash on but I've tried to get a bit of natural light and take them without flash - need some practise with this though I think!
