Coffee Lovers Blog Spring and Summer 2018 Blog Hop - Honey Bee Stamps

Hello and welcome to Spring and Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! 

Are you a coffee lover? Well, I have a love/hate relationship with it. If I could I would drink more of it, but sadly I have to limit my intake as I'm too sensitive to caffeine and become an insomniac. So one cup early in the day is all I can handle. Sometimes if I want more, I will drink a decaffeinated coffee, but it's just not the same LOL!

So today I'm joining the Honey Bee Stamps DT as Honey Bee Stamps is a Super Sponsor of the Coffee Lovers Hop and will be giving away a $50 GC as well as 2 - $25 flash prizes. So make sure you join in on the fun as there are many companies participating and lots of great goodies to be given away!

My card today is a one layer card with some added dimension. A super quick thank you card that which was really easy make 😉

I began by die cutting the Thanks, staking and gluing them together, then placed it on the card front to see where to position the "a latte".  The "A" btw, comes from the Foxy Sentiment Set. Once I had the position figured out, I stamped the words out using Broken China Distress Oxide ink and heat set it with clear embossing powder. Next, I used a watermark ink and stamped the coffee beans all over the card front. I then used a brush to apply the copper perfect pearls to each bean. For added detail, I stamped out the coffee cup from the Penny the Platypus Set and colored it in with a few distress oxide inks, then added it to the card panel with foam to pop it up. As a final touch, I added some pink hearts here and there.

And there you have it, a super quick coffee themed thank you card.

Honey Bee Stamps Shine On - You Sparkle and Shine Birthday Card

Happy Fri-YAY Friends!

Today I have a super fun girly card to share with you all featuring the Shine On Set from Honey Bee Stamps. As soon I saw this set I knew I would love it, but it wasn't until I saw Kelly Latevola's card that I had to have it!!!  Such a fun and girly set perfect for so many reasons 😍 💅 

To create this card was actually quite simple. The hardest part was the coloring and even that was pretty easy to do. Because I added the paste on top of the colored bottles I lost the dimension I had colored. If you plan on recreating this I wouldn't bother with using more than one color.

So, first of all, I stamped out the nail polish stamp randomly onto the card panel. Then using  Spectrum Noir Markers I colored them in (See colors used below).  Next, I created a mask using some post-it notes, cutting only the bottle part out creating a stencil for the glimmer paste. I then used that stencil to apply the paste to all the colorful nail polish bottles. Stamped and die cut the sentiments from the coordinating Shine On set and popped them on to the center of the panel. Finished the card by adhering the panel to a black card base and adding some confetti. 

Spectrum Noirs used: (Bootle Cap) IG2, IG4, IG6, IG8 IG10, Blender (Red) DR4, DR5 (Orange) OR3, CR10 (Yellow) CT3, CT4 (Green) LG5, JG1 (Blue) IB3, BT7 (Purple) HB3, LV3

Since I wanted to make this into a birthday card, I pulled out a few sentiments from a few other sets to stamp out my greeting and added the fun bow from Shine On.

Hope you were inspired by this girly Sparkle and Shine Birthday Card. I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to stop by 😊

Happy Crafting 👋
