Beach Sunset Birthday Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends and happy Monday! 

I hope you all are enjoying your summer so far. I have yet to do so. Work is out of control as we are so short-staffed and it looks like I won't be getting some of my vacation requests approved so it will be a staycation for the time that was approved which will be later on in August. Plus, how can anyone get anything done with the kids at home, lol😆. I feel like I'm constantly cooking or cleaning. Anyways, I digress... guess I was wishing I was somewhere like on today's card for the summer. A girl can dream, right!?!

I kept this card super simple as I wanted the Ocean Circlescape Dies to be the focal point.

CARD RECIPE

• Die-cut the Ocean Circlescape Dies using paper for ink blending. 
• Ink blend the waves, sun, and sky using distress oxide inks, see colors listed below. 
• Spray the waves with water to add distress and texture to the blending. 
• Glue all the die-cut pieces back onto a circle smaller than the circle shape. I used one of the circles from the Circlescapes Shaker Frames.

Pop up the sun in the center using foam tape.

Add white gel pen details to the waves, sun, and sky. 

Add a thin layer of glue to each layer of wave and add chunky glitter for a touch of sparkle.

Add the birthday sentiment from the Foil Script: Wishes Hot Foil Plate/Dies that has been foiled using polished brass glimmer foil with the Hot foil glimmer system.

Add foam dots to the back of the finished Circlescape panel and attach it to a black piece of A2-sized cardstock that has been glued to an A2 card base.

I hope this simple beach sunset birthday card inspired you today. Perfect for any beach lover in your life.

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

No Probllama Encouragement Card

Happy Friday!

Today's card features one of my favorite sets from Honey Bee Stamps latest BEE Bold Release which is the No Probllama Stamp set and coordinating Dies. It is such a fun set to play with.

For this card, I began by stamping out all the images I was going to use, colored them in with Copic markers and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. (See links below for supplies used) I then blended out the sunset like background using various Distress Oxide inks onto Bristol Paper.

For the greeting of the front of the card, I combined the No Probblama set with the Prickly Sentiments to come up with an encouraging sentiment. I stamped out the sentiment using a white pigment ink and then used a white embossing powder to heat set it. For the inside, I used another sentiment from the Pricky Sentiment set and then used the coordinating Llama die to cut out a Llama in black to add it to the bottom of the inside of the card. And that is pretty much all for this card!

I love how this card turned out. Hopefully, it inspired you enjoyed it too!
