Lovely Layers Magnolia Cards | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends, and welcome back.

Today I am featuring the beautiful Lovely Layers: Magnolia Dies. These beautiful flowers are perfect for any occasion as you will see from the cards I'll be sharing.

CARD RECIPE

I won't go into too much detail as most of these cards were created by die-cutting and I am pretty sure you all can figure it out from the pictures. 

This first card could be for a friend, or rather really anyone you want to send your love to. It could also be used for a wedding. The foiled sentiments from the Foil Script: Wishes Hot Foil Plate/Dies just seem to elevate these cards to the next level giving them that extra finishing detail. To the centers of these magnolias, I blended some yellow ink.

This sympathy card was done the same way as the previous card only this time I used a white background with the Spring Leaves A2 Pierced Cover Plate. 

For the foiled sentiments, I used POLISHED BRASS - Glimmer Foil with the Hot Foil System. 

This last wedding shaker, I shared during the release on Instagram, but not here on the blog. For this card, I used the Circlescapes Shaker Frames to create the shaker parts for this easel card.

For this magnolia, I blended pink ink to the outside of the petals. I also used quite a bit of foam to make the flower look more dimensional. Obviously, this would not be a card I would send through the mail 😉

As I mentioned earlier, this is an easel card. To do that I added the shaker to a circle card base that I had scored in half to allow for the card to fold up and be displayed. Once again I used a sentiment from the Foil Script: Wishes Hot Foil Plate/Dies to create the stopper for the card to remain in the folded position.

I hope these Lovely Layers Magnolia Cards inspired you today and you saw that they could be used for any occasion. 

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

Barnyard Party Invitation | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello Friends and Happy Monday!

I am back again with a post for Honey Bee Stamps. In today's blog post I am sharing the cutest ever Barnyard Party Invitation. This card could be used for pretty much any event that has to do with a farm theme, a child's birthday party, or even a wedding. How cute would it be to receive an invitation like this? Everyone definitely will be at your party😉

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I die cut the barn pieces for the front panel of the card using the new BARN BUILDER DIES. On the red barn layer, I used the WOODGRAIN BACKGROUND stamp to add detail to the wood panels and then drew in the lines using a ruler.

Next, I used the Barn Door frame die to create the barn doors by doing some partial die-cutting. I then just scored the paper to create the hinge for each of the doors. To finish the barn doors I stacked a glued 2 layers of the white wood frames and glued them to each door.

I also die-cut and pieced the little round window for the top of the barn. The lights come from FARMHOUSE ADD-ON that I stamped colored and fussy cut, simply because I didn't want a white border but you could use the coordinating FARMHOUSE ADD-ON DIES.

To let the recipient know this card has a little surprise I stamped out the look inside from the ONE-OF-A-KIND set.

On another piece of paper, I stamped out the little chicks and the pig from the WAY TO GOAT set by doing some masking. I then colored these cuties in and the background using Copic markers and glued the panel in the opening of the barn doors.

The You're Invited stamped in white comes from the PARTY Stamp Set. Below is a closer look at these cuties inside the barn.

To finish the front panel and the inside of the card I die cut two more Barn house panels (one to cover the colored panel and another to make the back piece of the card). To the back panel, I stamped out Let's Party from using the PARTY stamp set, you could also add all the details of the party →the who, what, where, when, and rsvp details here. I then created a score on the left of the barn panel to make the hinge for the card and glued it to the front panel.

I hope this Barnyard Party Invitation gave you some inspiration for the next time you are looking to send out invitations for a farm theme party.

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

Save The Date See Through Window Shaker | Studio Katia

I am back with another wedding themed card today. This time it is for a Save the Date Invitation See Through Window Shaker. I think this would also make a great destination wedding card idea.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I lined up the beige cardstock piece with the card base then ran them both through the die cut machine using the SHAKER HEART DIE to ensure the heart windows line up. I then used the same die to die cut the gold heart frame that will be glued on later. To the edge of the beige panel, I added the scalloped edge by die cutting the piece using the outer frame from the SCALLOP HEARTS COVER.

Next, I added a piece of ACETATE behind the heart opening and glued the gold heart to the edge of the window. I then flipped over the piece and created a foam tape well around the heart to fill with the sequins and shaker bits (CRYSTAL CLEAR FUSION and
MAJESTIC FUSION SEQUINS). Then cut another piece of acetate to lock in all my shaker pieces. Next, I added foam tape to the backside of the shaker panel, removed the protective backing from the foam tape and lined it up to the opening of the card base and glued it in place using the heart window to make sure it all lined up properly. 

I then stamped out the stars from the STAR DATE set and embossed them in gold embossing powder and die cute them with the coordinating STAR DATE Dies. I then stamped in their little faces and colored them in using Zig markers and also added glossy accents details for a little shine. For fun and even more shine, I added the IRIDESCENT BUBBLES to the front of the card.

On the inside of the card, right where the window opens I blended out the sun rays using the UNDERWATER SUN RAYS stencil and then just used some masking tape to blend out the sand and the ocean. Lastly, I stamped out the save the date sentiment.
