Hello, and Happy Valentine's Day my friends!
Today's card is part of the new collection from Picket Fence's Nature's Wonderland Release, and I couldn't help but make it love-themed with a punny sentiment to celebrate the day😉 Join me and the design team over on Instagram for a fun Hop and chances to win prizes!
CARD RECIPE
Background - Garden Lattice A2 Cover Plate
Bees - Happy Bumble Bee Dies
Flowers - Layering Cherry Blossoms Dies
Sentiment - Wreath Building Greetings From Our Hive
Ink - Black Hybrid Ink Pad
Besides, a little stamping and ink pouncing, the majority of the card was die-cutting and assembly. So I won't go into much detail.
For the bees, I cut out 3 different layers black, white, and yellow. I trimmed out and pieced what I needed. For the little heart, I just colored the white layer with a pink marker. Before gluing the layers together I added some color to the wings and the bee bellies with markers. Once they were glued together, I then linked the antennas and glued the Bees to the card front. Doesn't it look like their bodies are forming a heart?
For the cherry blossoms, I used a Paper Pouncer to add pink ink to the center of the flowers. I then cut an additional white layer that I kept together by affixing tape to the back of the die cuts and then glued the pink layer to it. To finish them off I added a pink gem to each center.
The sentiment was stamped out using the Black Hybrid Ink Pad and then fussy cut.
