Hey friends, welcome back to Day 2 of Honey Bee stamps Deerly Loved Release inspiration week! Today I have a few cards to share with you featuring the new Snow Buddies stamp set and dies, plus a whole lot more new products that were just released!
As you can see here I used the Rectangle Windows Trio Honey Cut die, to create this fun flash scene of the snowman's reaction as he watches the bunny toss the snowball to get the girl bunny’s attention on the other side of the card.
The hello diecut hello sentiment comes from the new Jingle All the Way stamp set and the stamped "you" comes from the Welcome Home set.
To create this card, I first began by die cutting the Rectangle Window Trio frame for the front panel. With a pencil, I traced out the opening of the window frames on to the bottom panel. Next, I stamped out my snow buddy images within the pencil lines, colored them in using Copic markers then erased the lines. To the card front, I stamped out the bunny and the snowball images. The snowballs were made by using the circle stamps from the Background Builder set. Once all the coloring was done I laid both cardstock pieces together making sure that the snowmen were properly aligned in the window frames, and then used the snowfall stencil from the Winter Wonder Background Stencil set and added glimmer paste to it to create a winter fall like scene. To the snowballs, I added some glossy accents to them to make them shine.
For this next card, I began by using the Winter Wonderland Stencils to create the colorful rainbow-like mountain background using distress oxide inks. Once the ink was dry I stamped a few of the sentiments from the Jingle All The Way set and snowflakes onto the card front using a white ink and then heat set them with a white embossing powder. I then die cut the entire panel using the largest A2 Deckle Edge Rectangle Die. For some sparkle, I added a thin line of Sparkle embossing powder to create a snow drift behind the snowman.
I LOVE how this card turned out, way too cute and rainbow colors are always my favorite! 😍
After the sentiments were on the background, I felt like the "Jingle All The Way" stamped sentiment wasn't standing out enough from the background because of all the white space. To make it pop out just a little I used a light grey Copic marker to add some shadowing underneath the scripted letters. That seemed to do the trick!
For my snow buddy images, I did a no line coloring using Fadeout ink and Copic markers. To the nose, buttons and the mouth of the snowman, I added some glossy accents for some shine and dimension. I also added a bunch of highlights using a white jelly roller pen and a few Raw Honey Sequins.
Hope you are inspired by my Snow Buddy cards today, for more inspiration featuring these products make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Honey Bee Design Team.
