Lovely Layers Peony Miss You Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello, again my crafty friends,

This has been a busy week for me both personally and crafty related. I hope you aren't tired of all the posts, but I promise it is the last blog post for this week... Monday we shall start a new week, lol!

Today's beauty is part of Honey Bee Stamps Birthday Bliss Release Instagram Hop. So if you would like to take part, hop along for a chance at winning one of two $25 Gift Cards to the Honey Bee Stamps Shop. Click 👉HERE to join the hop.

CARD RECIPE

This card started by die-cutting all the pieces for the new Lovely Layers: Peony using white cardstock. I then added colors to the layers by Inkblending different shades of purple distress Oxide inks, starting from the darkest color to the lightest. See links below. Once the ink blending was done, I then pieced it together using Foam Dots.

The Peony was then glued onto a background I created by using the Spring Leaves A2 Pierced Cover Plate then die cut the scallop border using one of the Scalloped A7 Frame Dies.

For the sentiment, I actually cheated as I had previously foiled a bunch of sentiments from a previous project. The sentiment was foiled in gold and comes from the Small Card Hot Foil Plates. I added the scalloped edge to the strip by using the same Scalloped A7 Frame Die.

For a touch of bling, I used the new Aurora Borealis Gem Stickers. I then added foam dots to the pierced panel and glued them to an Ivory 5X7 Card base.

I hope you love this card as much as I do. I will be away most of the weekend from social media as I have to attend 3 Communions, 2 Confirmations, and a Celebration of Life, (all of which I am a part of, Lord help me! Hopefully, everything runs smoothly). 

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Hopping! Click 👉HERE to join the hop, and to shop the new release Click 👉HERE!

Thinking of You Freesia Floral Card | Studio Katia

Hello friends and Happy Wednesday!

Today I have a Spring inspired friendship card to share with you all featuring one of the newer stamp sets from Studio Katia called Darling Freesia.

CARD RECIPE

• Stamp out the Darling Freesia using watermark ink and heat set the gold embossing powder onto watercolor safe paper. I used Bristol paper.
• Watercolor the flower. I used Karin Brush Pro Markers.
• Die-cut using the coordinating Freesia Dies.
• Stamp sentiments onto Banners.
• Die-cut banners and create an offset using the same dies and gold foil cardstock.
• Create the card base by die-cutting the Mini Polka Dots Cover and gluing it to a card base with a small hinge at the top to attach the front panel.
• To the front panel add the gold pierced frame from the Darling Ribbons and Frames.
• Add foam tape to the back of the card elements ad attach them to the card front.
• Finish by adding some Marshmallow Pearls.

I hope you were inspired by this cute peekaboo card front design. 

Wishing you all a wonderful week my darling friends. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Ilda 💖
