Using the black marker, draw spots and a line down the middle of the ladybug’s body.
Using the green sheet of card stock, cut out a large leaf shape. If you want, draw a vein
down the middle of the leaf and other veins branching outward with a green marker.
Cut out the leaf stem and glue it to the base of the leaf.
Cut out each ladybug body and glue onto the green leaf you made in step 8.
Glue the ladybug heads onto the top of each apple stamp.
Using the black marker, add antennas and the flying trails.
