Repeat Stamping and Coloring with Pencils on Kraft | Honey Bee Stamps


Repeat Stamping and Coloring with Pencils on Kraft for Honey Bee Stamps by ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com

OMG, you guys this picture makes me so happy! The colors, the images, but most of all happy because I think have overcome my fear of coloring with pencils, and that's what excites me the most!


CARD DETAILS

If you all have been following my coloring on Instagram for Kathy Racoosin's Daily Marker Challenge you would have seen some sneak peeks of the cupcake card as I posted a speed coloring video of the process. I had so much fun practicing and was loving the results that I had to make some more.

So here is the cupcake yumminess card that started my new love of pencils, and by the way, I used Prismacolor Pencils for all my cards today. For this card, I stamped out the cupcake and the cherries from the PIECE OF CAKE stamp set using Versafine Onyx Black Ink and a stamping Block for quick stamping.  To color the images in I began by laying down the darkest color first and then the white highlight area then layered on a lighter color to blend out the two. I then repeated the steps to add more pigment. Once there is enough wax left behind from the pencils the wax begins to blend quite nicely with a little more pressure. I used medium pressure for the first layers and then would end with harder pressure. I am by no means an expert and consider myself a beginner but I did like the result I achieved.

To make these images pop even further, I went back over all the black lines with a very sharp tip using the black Prismacolor pencil.

To finish off this card I stamped out the sentiment below from the ONE OF A KIND set and die cut it using the coordinating ONE OF A KIND Honey Cut set.

I couldn't resist using the cutest Bee's, from the HAPPY FALL Y'ALL set for my next card. Here again, I used Versafine Onyx Black ink and stamped out all the images using a stamping block and then again repeated the same coloring process as above starting with the darkest color and then ending with the lightest. I used the same principles as I would if I was using alcohol markers, the only thing that is different was laying down the white highlight first as I was working with Kraft paper instead of a white paper. To make these really pop once again I went back over the lines with a very sharpened black pencil.

Just to give you an idea of how long it took, each full-sized bodied bee took about 10 mins to color. So needless to say, this card took a couple of days and a few sessions to complete as I didn't have the time to do it all in one sitting. But just look at how cute it turned out!!!

For the sentiment, I used the Happy Beeday greeting from the HI HONEY stamp set and then used the HI HONEY Coordinating Honey Cuts to die cut them out.

For this last card, I pulled out the SHINE ON set, one of my favorite girlie Honey Bee Stamp sets. Again using the same techniques mentioned above. This time to make coloring quicker and because I had learned some things from the previous cards, I first laid down the white pencil highlight layer to all the areas I wanted to highlight and then added the other colors.

The Sparkle On sentiment comes from the SHINE ON set, and the "your birthday" comes from the WISH set.

I hope these cards inspire you to pull out your pencils and play with them as mine had just been collecting dust for the past few years!

Mandala Gatefold Wedding Wishes Card | Honey Bee Stamps


Mandala Gatefold Wedding Wishes Card for Honey Bee Stamps by ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com

Happy Monday friends, hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

With wedding season starting soon, I thought I would share with you how I made this gorgeous gatefold Wedding card using some new products from the Happy BEE day release.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I created a gatefold card base by cutting the cardstock paper to 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches. Scoring and folding at 2 1/8 and 6 1/4 inches.

I then die cut both pieces of the Mandala Honey Cuts and also kept the center negative die cut. For paper, I used a pale gold heavyweight cardstock from an old paper pad I had. I then adhered the large Mandela die to a piece of vellum I had cut using the largest Double Stitched Circle Cuts and then sliced the two pieces right down the middle and glued them on to the card front panels, trimming off any pieces that hung over the side edges of the card.

On the right flap of the gatefold, I glued the centerpieces that I had left over from the Mandela Dies.

I then create a simple band to slide and hold the card together, using some vellum and white ribbon and the adding the Wishes Script die from the Wish Honey Cuts set that I die cut using the same pale gold cardstock.

On the inside, I thought it would be fun to finish off the wishes sentiment with a rhyme to the bride and groom using the Mr. and Mrs. Stamp set. "Wishes, hugs and kisses, to the new Mr and Mr.s"

Honey Bee Stamps Deerly Loved Release Bee Inspired Week | Winter Anemones

Welcome back to the Honey Bee Stamps BEE Inspired Week for the Deerly Loved Release. Today's card features the gorgeous Winter Anemone stamp set.

To make this card I began by stamping out one of the images from the Winter Anemone stamp set on to some Bristol cardstock with Jucy ink. I then used a Chrome embossing powder to heat set my lines in. Next, I used a few Zig clean color brush markers to watercolor the images in. Once the image was dry I die cut flowers out with the coordinating dies.

The hello banner was made by using one of the wider Banner Builder dies that I had trimmed, and stampeded the "hello" from the Jingle All The Way stamp set too.


For the background, I used one of the Polka Dot Background Stencils to create the sparkly background.  I finished the card by adding glossy accents to the center of the flowers and also by adding pops of Night Sky Nuvo Glitter Drops.



Well, this Winter Anemones friendship card concludes my card creations for the Bee Inspired Week from Honey Bee Stamps Deerly Loved Release. Hope you have enjoyed all the projects I shared this week. For more inspiration make sure you check out the Honey Bee Stamps Blog.
