Punch a black and a daffodil cardstock using ladybug punch. cut the daffodil piece into strips and glue it down on the black cardstock as shown. it should end with the daffodil piece on the tail. Cut the tail from the last black stripe to the middle of the back on both left and right side to make a sharper pointed butt . punch the wings from vellum cardstock and mount with dimensionals.
the flowers were stamped with polished pink stamped off to create a softer flower look.
