Lovely Layers Rainbow Rose | Valentine's Day Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Lovely Layers, Rose, Rainbow,Valentine's Day, Card,Honey Bee Stamps,Card Making, Stamping, Die Cutting, handmade card, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, Stamps, how to,Ink Blending,Atelier Inks, Inkon3

Hello, my dear friends, and Happy New Year!!!

Yes, this is my first post for 2022 and of course, I had to start off with a Rainbow Rose inspiration🌹🌈😁

Today's card could be used for any occasion, but I did pair it with a "love you" sentiment from the new Bitty Buzzwords: Be Mine to make it a valentine's Day Card. 

CARD RECIPE


To begin I die cut all the pieces for the Lovely Layers: Roses and then Ink Blended each layer of the petals using Atelier Inks from Inkon3, see thumbnails below.


For the petals, I first used Goddess Green Ink and then went back in with Trinity to darken some of the petals and stems.


I used foam tape to build up the petals of the rose, leaving the center free of foam so that I could add glue to it and pinch it together with reverse tweezers until the glue dried. This gives the rose some fan-like dimension. And, yes this does make the card super bulky. So this would be one card that would have to be hand-delivered or you'd have to put it in a "box of roses". This rose would also look amazing in a frame too! Check out my previous lovely layer frames HERE.

For the background, I used a few of the stencils from the Layered Lace Layering Stencils to add Moonstone Paste and create some glittery borders on the card front.

The "love you" stamp comes from the Bitty Buzzwords: Be Mine set that was stamped on black cardstock using white ink and embossing PWD. It then was die cut using one of the smaller banners from the Sentiment Banner Dies.

To finish this beauty, I added some of my favorite sequins for even more sparkle and shine.

I hope I didn't disappoint you with this rainbow rose creation. I am absolutely in love with it and hope you are too!

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

Vintage Holiday Release Day 2 Sneak Peeks | Honey Bee Stamps

Vintage Holiday, Release,Sneak Peeks,Honey Bee Stamps, Lovely Layers, Anemones Dies,Winter, White, Card Making, Stamping, Die Cutting, handmade card, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, Stamps, how to,Floral Card,

Hello and welcome back to Day 2 of the Vintage Holiday Release for Honey Bee Stamps.

My card today features the gorgeous new Lovely Layers: Anemone Dies. This is a larger card (A7), simply because I wanted to use all of these flowers together. They would have fit onto an A2 card base but it would have been too small for the sentiment I wanted to use.


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  links will not be active until the Release goes live on October 14th, 2021 @9pm CST.

CARD RECIPE

Here is a breakdown of what I used to make this pretty wintery card.


Stamps: 

Dies:

Paper: 

Stencil:

Ink:

Emb. Powder:

Die Cut Machine:

Adhesives:

Embellishments:

Other Tools:

Once my Anemone flowers were all die-cut and assembled, I then just had to figure out the background design. I  used the ★Crystal Kaleidoscope Stencil to apply this silver paste to the Scallop A7 Card Frame layer.

To make these centers pop, I used foam tape in between each layer and added glue to the outside edge of the center layers which were then dipped in sparkle glitter. Before attaching the centers to the flowers, I drew some black lines on the base of the petals. To the end of the lines, I added the cutest little domes to make it look like Stamen.

Here's a close-up. Check out the dimension. Also, it is difficult to see from the photos but I did blend Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink to the white centers of the flowers to give some extra depth and dimension.

I hope you were inspired by this Hello Winter Anenomes Card. If you have been following me you will know that I love all the Lovely Layer Flowers from Honey Bee and this Anemone did not disappoint. 
Thank you for stopping by and I will see you back here tomorrow for day 3 sneak peeks... Happy Crafting!

Framed White Sunflower Shadow Box | Honey Bee Stamps

Frame, White Sunflowers, Shadow Box, Honey Bee Stamps,Lovely Layers, how to, gift idea, die cut flowers,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,cardmaker,handmade art

Hello and happy Monday crafty friends!

First of all, I would like to thank all of you that left me the sweetest comments and messages over on my Instagram in regards to the last Framed Lovely Layers Floral Bouquet I made. This beauty is now in Jennifer McGuire's craft room and I could not be happier about that! 

Frame, White Sunflowers, Shadow Box, Honey Bee Stamps,Lovely Layers, how to, gift idea, die cut flowers,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,cardmaker,handmade art

Today's project was made for a friend and colleague of mine (hi Tomina👋) who asked me to make a White Sunflower shadow box for her after she saw the White Sunflower Slimline card I made. 

Here is how this beautiful frame came together.

FRAME RECIPE


Dies:
Paper: 
  • Cream, green and brown heavyweight Colored Cardstock
Frame:
  • Square 9 ¾ " Shadow Frame from IKEA (The frame I used has been discontinued, the one I linked is very similar)
Ink:

Die Cut Machine:

Adhesives:

Embellishments:

Other Tools:

Once you have put one of these flowers together, then the rest is simple. It is just a repetitive process.

Frame, White Sunflowers, Shadow Box, Honey Bee Stamps,Lovely Layers, how to, gift idea, die cut flowers,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,cardmaker,handmade art
  1. The first thing I did was cut all the layers for the 8 sunflowers I needed to form the shape of a heart. 
  2. I then ink blended up the centers of the flowers. 
  3. Curled the flower petals.
  4. Added foam to each layer of the flower to build up the petals and create dimension.
  5. To the centers, add a layer of glue to the bottom layer. 
  6. Drop the seed beads into the glue (I tried having the hole of the beads face up). Once the glue dried, I used a brown Copic Marker to color the center brown.
  7. To the top of the center, add small drops of glossy accents. While still wet sprinkle with Sparkle Glitter and piece the centers together.
  8. Glue centers to the flower petals.

Arrange the flowers how you like. Once you have that figured out, glue it to the paper background of the frame. Use foam to pop up some of the flowers in place. Finish by gluing the leaves in place.

I love how this White Sunflower Shadow Box frame turned out, and I hope you can see from this example that you do not need all the flowers to create something beautiful!

Framed Lovely Layers Floral Bouquet | Honey Bee Stamps

Framed, Lovely Layers, Floral Bouquet, Honey Bee Stamps, shadow box, Die cut flowers, Sunflower, hydrangea,Easter Lily,Coneflower,Die Cutting, handmade, Gift idea, ilovedoingallthingscrafty, how to,

Hello, my friends and Happy Monday!

Today I am super excited to share with you this beautiful Framed Lovely Layers Floral Bouquet featuring many of the lovely layers dies from Honey Bee Stamps. I've had this idea since the sunflower die was released and was dying to make it. I have made many similar frames in the past, which I will share with you at the end of this post, but this time was the first time I used dies to create the flowers. 

If you love die-cutting, this project is for you. I made this over a period of two days. The first day I spent die-cutting and ink blending all the pieces. The second day was pretty much assembling and embellishing it. 

Here is a breakdown of how and what I used to put it all together.

FRAME RECIPE 


Dies:

Frame:
  • Square 9 ¾ " Frame from IKEA 
(The frame I used has been discontinued, the one I linked is very similar) 

Paper: 

  • Heavy Weight 110lbs Colored Cardstock


Ink for blending:

  •  Atelier Inks from Inkon3 (see links below)

Die Cut Machine:

Adhesives:

Embellishments:

Other Tools:

Once all the pieces were die-cut and inked up, I then assembled each flower individually using foam in between each layer. I then played with the arrangement until I came up with one I liked and took a photo of the design to guide me when it came time to glue it all down.

To the centers of the sunflowers, I added a layer of glue and dropped seed beads into the puddle. Once the area was dry I used a brown Copic marker to color the beads. To the top layer of the center, I added tiny drops of glossy accents and then added sparkle glitter over it. This adds some raised dimension and shine. For the coneflower centers, I used a glue pen and added tiny dots of glue, and then used the same glitter. I also used crystal drops to add details to the hydrangea centers and the Easter Lily.

The flowers were then glued to a piece of white cardstock that I had cut to fit the frame. Use foam tape to build up height where you feel it may be needed. I used about 4 layers of foam to raise the center sunflower. To finish off the bouquet I added a couple pieces of twirled cardstock to create some vine-looking greenery.

For additional shine, I painted the edges of some of the hydrangea flowers using liquid pixie dust.

I am in love with this frame and I hope you are too. Maybe it will even inspire you to create something similar for yourself!

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