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 Berry Much Punny Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Happy Monday Friends!

It's been a while since I made a Punny Card, so I thought I would have fun with the new Lovely Layers Strawberries from the Happy Hearts release from Honey Bee Stamps. You can never have enough thank you cards especially when they are this cute!

CARD RECIPE

• Die cut all the strawberries, stems and flower dies from the Lovely Layers Strawberries set.
• Add color to them. I used Altelier inks and ink-blended each piece.
• To make the seeds pop, I used a white gel pen and added ink to each groove of the strawberries.
• Assemble and glue the strawberries and flowers and set them aside.

• For the back panel, I die-cut a red piece of cardstock using a frame from the Scallop A2 Frame Dies.
• I then added the embossed white layer that was done using the Spring Medley 3D Embossing Folder.
• For the sentiment, I die cut the letters to spell Berry from the Tailgate Alphabet Dies 3 times. Stacked and glued them together to create dimension.
• I then, stamped and heat embossed in white the Thank you from the Rooting For You and the much from the Love Love Love Stamp set then die cut them with their coordinating dies. For the "much" one, I snipped off part of the sentiment as I only wanted the word much.
• Next, I added foam dots to each of the flowers and strawberries and added them to the card panel.
• And, because I always like to add a little bling, I added glue to the bottom of the berry letters and then sprinkled on some chunky sparkle glitter.

I hope this Punny Thank You, Berry Much Card, inspired you to use your Lovely Layer Strawberries creatively. 

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

Pampas Grass Thinking of You Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends, 

I am back again today as Honey Bee Stamps is celebrating the Spooktacular Release with an Instagram Hop. So if you want to qualify for a chance at winning one of two $50 Gift cards to their shop, click👉 HERE to join in on the fun. 

For my card, I wanted to play around with the new Lovely Layers Fall Foliage Dies. At first, I was going to use various dies and then I thought it would be fun just to use the Pampas and create an arrangement as they are so popular these days. 

CARD RECIPE

• Die cut 5 pieces using the pampas grass die from the Lovely Layers Fall Foliage Dies.
• Using the detail blender brushes, I added a touch of Tattered Rose (D. O.) ink to the edges.
• Next, die-cut the pieces from the Rattan Basket Dies.
• Ink blend the edges using Antique Linen (D.O.) ink.
• Add foam to the edges of the basket and piece it together, leaving the center open to build and glue the arrangement.
• On black cardstock, heat foil the sentiment from the Fall Foliage Foil Plate using Blush Foil and the Hot Foil Machine. 
• Use the coordinating die from the Fall Foliage Frame Dies to die cut the foiled sentiment. 
• Use Black foam dots to pop up the sentiments.
• Glue the elements to the front of the card. On the card base, I added a piece of pattern paper from the Grain and Grunge Paper Pad that I had trimmed first.
• Finish the front with some blush-colored gems from the Grain Grunge Gems Sticker pack.

• On the inside of the card, I finished this friendship card with a sentiment from the Inside Sentiments Comfort Stamp set.
• To tie this all together I used a coordinating envelope and the new Maple Wax Leaf Stamper and Autumn Wax Melts.

I hope this Pampas Grass Thinking of You Card design inspired you, and I hope to see you over on my Instagram!

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Hopping and good luck in the draw!
