Hello and welcome back!
Today a I have a couple fun cards to share with you featuring the BEE BOLD Alphabet Dies from Honey Bee Stamps latest Release. This set is perfect for those of you that love to customise your cards.
This first card I made for a friend of ours that will be celebrating a milestone birthday this weekend. Sometimes I find it hard to create masculine cards but seriously this was super simple to make and I think it turned out pretty Rad too! I loved how it was coming together that I was inspired to make the Girly version of it at the same time, which funny was a little more challenging only because of what I wanted it it to say, and because I also had to search through my entire collection to find the right stamps.
Here is how I made these cards:
- First I began by die cutting each letter from the BEE Bold Alphabet dies 3 times.
- I then stacked and glued them together.
- For the "DUDE" card used the sentiments from the Special Teacher to stamp onto a black Sentiment Banner die cut. I used a white pigment ink and heat set using a white embossing powder.
- I then created the background panels using Bristol paper and a combination of distress oxide inks. (See the thumbnails below for inks used)
- Once the background panels were dry I used the largest stitched Rectangle Frame to die cut them out.
- For this "GIRLfriend" Card, I used a combination of stamps to create the sentiment.
- On the Angular Banner die cut I stamped the "YOU ARE" from the Sweet stamp set.
- The "FRIEND" that was stamp along the L comes from the Friends Like You stamp set (I masked off the S from FRIENDS) I then heat set the letters using a black embossing powder.
- And the AWESOME comes from the Special Teacher set.
- Once the cards were assembled, I then added some glossy accents to just the "GIRL" letters.
On the inside of the cards I used a couple of other stamps to create the birthday greeting.
- I chose the HAPPY from the Best Parent stamp set because the font was similar to the one I used on the front.
- I then paired it with a cursive Birthday sentiment that comes from the Lily the Lamb set.
I love mixing and matching my stamp and die sets and using them to come up with totally different designs. I hope my cards today have inspired you to customise your cards.
Thank you for stopping by 😊
Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
