I love all the new Bitty Buzzwords coming out as they make adding a bold sentiment to the card front so cute, they really are a perfect size!

I love the Mini Slimline size. As you can see all that is on the card front is the Autumn Buzzword Die along with some leaves from the Itty Bitty Flowers set. This would be a great size to mass produce as it is quite small and fairly quick to make especially if you used pattern paper rather than ink blend it.

I love this Basket Weave Stencil from the Spring Release. Doesn't it look like a sweater pattern? Well, I hope you thought so too as that is what I was going for with the warm sweater weather vibes.

Thank you for stopping by and I will see you back here tomorrow for day 4 and our final day of sneak peeks... Happy Crafting!

Autumn Splendor Thank You See Through Card | Honey Bee Stamps Day 2 Autumn Splendor Sneak Peek

Happy Saturday!

Welcome back to Day 2 Sneak Peaks for the Autumn Splendor release from Honey Bee Stamps.

I told you yesterday, Fall was my favorite season and the colors of this card are why I do so much. The warm colors are just so pretty, especially in nature.

This Fall card features the Autumn Splendor Cover Plate Die coming soon that I decided to watercolor. There are so many ways to use this background and I can't wait to see what everyone does with it.

Make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Design Team featuring more day 2 product reveals! Please note that some links will not be active until the Release goes live on August 16th, 2021 @ 9pm CST.

CARD RECIPE

Stamps: 

•  Inside: Thankful Sentiments Stamp Set

Dies:

•  Autumn Splendor Cover Plate Die

• Inside: Thankful Sentiments Dies

• Thanks Buzzword Dies

• Sweet Stacks: Rectangles Dies

Paper: 

• Bristol Paper

• Neenah Solar White 110lbs

• Gold Glitter Paper

• Acetate

Color Media:

• Karin Brush Pro Markers

Ink:

• Intense Black Ink

Die Cut Machine:

• Gemini Junior

Adhesives:

• Bee Creative Glue 

Embellishments:

• Glossy Accents

Other Tools:

• Reverse Tweezers

• New Mini Misti

• White Gel Pen

How pretty is this background. Once the panel was colored, I sandwiched acetate in between another layer to cover up the backside of the background and make the front panel stronger. 

To the top, I finished off the card with two rectangle frames. As you can see the sentiment is visible through the card. Keep reading to see what you can do to keep the sentiment a surprise.

I used this sentiment from the Inside: Thankful Sentiments Stamp Set. To hide the sentiment from the recipient as the card is see-through, simply add a piece of copy paper. 

Thank you for stopping by and I will see you back here tomorrow for day 3 sneak peeks... Happy Crafting!

Honey Bee Stamps | Day One - Autumn Afternoon Release Blog Hop

Hello, my friends and welcome to Day One of the Autumn Afternoon Release Blog Hop. If you have already started hopping you would have arrived here from Julianne's Blog. If you want to start the Blog Hop from the beginning click HERE. I will link the complete line up close to the end of this post.

CARD DETAILS

I have a couple of cards to share with you today so I will try to keep it a brief as possible. This first card features the new SWEET SUNFLOWERS and that I colored using Copic markers and then die cut using the coordinating DIES. 

For the background blanket, I stamped out the BUFFALO PLAID STAMP using black ink onto the new SLIMLINE SENTIMENTS: BLANKET DIE.

I then die cut the scripted sending die from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENTS: BLANKET DIE, and heat embossed it with black EP to give it that glossy finish. 

For the warm wishes banner, I stamped the sentiments from the FALL STAMP SET and then die cut it with one of the SENTIMENT BANNER DIES.

Here are a few more close-ups of these beautiful images designed by my sweet friend Emily Midgett. 

This next card is perfect for all my coffee-loving friends. This card features the images from the new TREAT YO SELF STAMP and coordinating DIES. 

The images were colored using Copic markers. The background panel was created by die cutting the largest SCALLOP A2 FRAME and then using the smaller HEXAGON STENCIL to blend out the pattern on the panel.

The sentiment dies come from the new AUTUMN DIES and the stamps come from the coordinating AUTUMN STAMP SET.

Here is another close up look at all the fun added sparkly details.

Life Is A Bit Nuts Slimline Scene Card | Day Four Sneak Peeks | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello Friends and Happy Monday. Is your life a bit nuts these days!? Maybe you can relate to this card. I know I definitely can!

Today is Day 4 Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps Autumn Afternoon Release. Make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Design Team featuring more day 4 product reveals!

This cute Slimline Card features the new NUTS ABOUT YOU and coordinating DIES, I also used HORIZON SLIMLINE BORDERS. Yes, as you can see I didn't create a Slimline horizontal card, but I wanted to show you it is also possible to use these dies and make a vertical Slimline scene. To frame the scene I used the SLIMLINE SENTIMENTS: EYELET DIES (Please note links for the new release will not be active until products go live on RELEASE DAY - Monday 9/21 @ Midnight EST.)

Here are some close-ups of this fun card.

Thank you for stopping by and make sure you come back tomorrow for Day 1 of the Autumn Afternoon Blog Hop. See you then, in the meantime hang in there friends!

Hello Fall Sunflower Slimline Scene | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello Everyone, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. 

I am back today with this Hello Fall Sunflower Slimline Scene using die cuts only. The perfect card to send a friend this season just to let them know you are thinking about them. I mixed and matched a few die sets to come up with the design and I hope you are inspired by it. I love sunflowers, so this was a great excuse to make some.

CARD DETAILS

Here's how you can recreate this card.

1. Begin by die cutting the frame and background using the SLIMLINE SENTIMENTS EYELET DIES from cardstock that blends well. (I used Bristol Paper)
2. Blend the background panel. (I used VINTAGE PHOTO and BROKEN CHINA Oxide Ink) 
3. Use the PUMPKIN PATCH STENCIL to blend out falling leaves in the sky and on the ground.

1. Die-cut a few clouds using the LARGE CLOUDS DIES. Glue onto the top part of the panel. Trim off any excess that hangs over the edge.
2. Die-cut the petals and centers for the sunflowers from the FALL BOUQUETS HONEY CUTS.  Ink up edges of the petals and curl them to add dimension. Glue the layers together. ( I used a gold glitter cardstock under the flower centers)
3. Die-cut stems and leaves for the sunflowers using the dies from STITCHED FLOWERS HONEY CUTS. Glue stems behind the flower heads.
4. Arrange the sunflowers as you wish and glue onto the card panel. Glue leaves in place.

1. Die-cut the hello from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENTS EYELET DIES, position, and glue in place.
2. Die-cut the letters for the word Fall. I used both the BEE BOLD ALPHABET CUTS and the BEE BOLD LOWERCASE DIES. Arrange and glue in place.
3. Add extra leaves from using dies from the FALL BOUQUETS | HONEY CUTS. (I inked them up with various fall colors, see oxide inks links below. I also used gold glitter ones too).

1. Cut out a slimline sized card base (9x8inches). The finished card measures 9 inches tall by 4 inches wide.
2. To finish the card, glue the slimline background onto the card base and add the scalloped edging that was die cut from the first step.

I hope you were able to follow the process along and are inspired to create your own Fall Sunflower Slimline Scenes.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
