DIY Ladybird Party Invite

Hello! I’m back and blowing the dust off this blog! Sorry it’s been so long. Life well and truly got in the way! I hope you are all well?!

I’ve seen a few of these ladybird invites around and wanted to have a go at making some. They are very cute and perfect for a summer party. (I’ve been very minimal and haven’t put any eyes on mine – but it would be easy to glue some wobbly eyes on if you wanted to).

I also thought this would make a great 30 minute craft project for young children so I’ve made a colour-in version that you can print off.

I hope you are all having a lovely summer. We are basking in the sunshine in the UK at the moment which is lovely!
