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

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!

Sweet Smooch Valentine's Day Slimline Card | Honey Bee Stamps Day 4 Love Letters Sneak Peek

Happy 2021 Friends, and welcome to Day 4 Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps Love Letters Release. Make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Design Team featuring more day 4 product reveals!

Today's Sweet Smooch Valentine's Day Slimline Card features the new S.W.A.K. Stamp and DIE Sets, the SMOOCH Stamp and DIE set and the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED Dies.

CARD DETAILS

The first thing I did was stamp all the gold S.W.A.K. lips onto a piece of white cardstock using watermark ink and then heat set it with gold embossing powder. I then used the new slimline frame from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED to die cut the panel. I then glued it onto a piece of black cardstock that I cut to 9x4 inches that was then eventually glued onto the same size card base.

The next thing I did was to die cut the SMOOCH DIES and piece the layers together. I stacked and glued 3 white layers for more dimension. 

To complete the sentiment I also stamped out sentiments from the SMOOCH stamp set onto banners and used the scripted word dies from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED dies. To the scripted dies I die cut two black layers and topped it off with a red layer. I then added clear embossing powder to give them a glossy finish. The heart that I used to dot the "i" comes from the FOREST FRIENDS Dies, that I had from a previous project.

To finish off this sexy card, I just had to add a pair of red lips using the S.W.A.K. stamp and DIE. The lips were stamped out using CANDIED APPLE Oxide Ink then heat set with a clear embossing powder.

I love how this card turned out, and hope you did too👄. Thank you for stopping by, and I will be back tomorrow with day 5 Sneak Peeks!
