Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release Day 1 Blog Hop

Hello and happy weekend friends!

Welcome to Day 1 of the Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release Day 1 Blog Hop. I'm am thrilled to be a part of this amazing team and so happy you are joining us today! If you have already begun the Blog hop you will have arrived here from my friend Galina's Blog. I will fill you in on where to go next at the end of the post.

CARD DETAILS

For my card today, I have chosen to do a no-line floral watercolored card using the new FARM FRESH FLOWERS stamp set. If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen a peek of this coloring last week in my stories.

To begin I stamped out the images using fadeout ink and then colored them in using Arteza Brush pens on Bristol Paper.

Next, I die cut my pieces with the FARM FRESH FLOWERS DIES and glued them together then foam mounted it onto the Buffalo Plaid Background I had created for the card front using both the BUFFALO PLAID stamp and the BUFFALO PLAID COVERPLATE.

To the inside, I just added a simple sentiment from the FARM FRESH FLOWERS set.

Day 5 Sneak Peek Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release

You have made it to Day 5 of the of Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release, YAY!!! All products will go live at Midnight, so get your shopping list ready!!!

CARD DETAILS

All my cards today feature the FLOWER PETAL AND CENTERS COVERPLATES. To make 3 cards I only used each cover plate once!

For the first two cards, I glued the die cuts to a background that  I had added a rainbow blend two. I then just trimmed the panel in half to create pieces for two card fronts.

To the flower centers, I glued on RAINBOW RHINESTONES. I then stamped out the Hello from the new FRIEND stamp set. And added the stacked FRIEND DIE from the coordinating die set.

The same process and products were used on this nest card, only this time done in a landscape version.

Oops, just noticed a little die-cut piece that snuck into the picture. Can you spot it?!

This last one, I used both the FLOWER PETAL AND CENTERS COVERPLATES and stacked them together. I used the dotted areas as a guide to added different colors to the flowers.

I then added the same RAINBOW RHINESTONES to the centers and then added some green petals throughout.

To the center of the panel, I added the popped up sentiment from the FRIEND stamp set.

Love how bright these cards turned out and how they all came together fairly quickly.

Day 4 Sneak Peek Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release

Happy Thursday! And welcome to Day 4 Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release. All products will go live at Midnight EST 4/17, so the links below will not be active until then.

CARD DETAILS

My slimline card today features the cutest farmyard animals called WAY TO GOAT. This set also comes with some punny sentiments.

The images were colored in with Copic markers and then die cut with their coordinating WAY TO GOAT Dies. I also added a windmill tower using dies from the BARN SCENE BUILDER set.

To create the scene I just did some ink blending to the grass area and the sky and to divide the space and give it a farmyard look I added a fence in the background.

I didn't realize this at the time but it looks like my animals are following social distance guidelines. They are staying together with their mates and keeping 6 feet from each other😉

I am buzzing by today to say welcome to Day 3 of the of Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps 5th Anniversary Release. All products will go live at Midnight EST 4/17, so the links below will not be active until then.

CARD DETAILS

My card today features a few more goodies from the release. To begin, I stamped out the cutest bee from the Spring FREE Bee set (which you can get Free with a purchase of $75 or more) and colored it in using Copic markers and then used the coordinating dies to cut it out (which you can also get if your purchase is $100 or more).

I then cut out and colored the strips for my rainbow using Copic markers, I won't say too much about the rainbow because it's a sneak peek for another day. Shhh 🙊

Next, I glued the pieced rainbow to the background where I had stenciled in some clouds using the OUTDOOR SCENE BUILDER STENCILS.

I then finished the front of the card off by adding the BUZZ Die that I stacked and glued 3 times and then added the "ing by to say" from the BUZZ stamp set that I had heat embossed in white on black paper.

To the inside of the card, I stamped out sentiments from the Spring FREE Bee stamp set.

Peony Trimmings Window Shaker Scene Card | Studio Katia

Hello, my friends. How are you all doing? I hope you all are hanging in there. I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you. Besides going to work, I stay at home with the family and try to distract myself as much as possible by crafting, cleaning, baking, helping the kids with school work... I wish I could just sit and relax but I just can't :(

Today's card was obviously was inspired by our current reality. Most of us are now looking at the world through a window by staying as safe as possible in our homes. I pray we all do our part so that we can be with each other in person again soon.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I stamped the PEONY TRIMMINGS out and then colored them in using Copic markers. If you follow me on Instagram, you will have seen that I colored the peonies during Kathy Racoosin's last 30-day coloring challenge.

I then used the PEONY TRIMMINGS coordinating dies to cut out the flowers.

Next, I created the shaker window.  I die cut all the pieces form the DOTTED PATTERNS SET 4 and used most of them to make the window scene. To the center frame, I glued a piece of ACETATE and then added the two inside window frames that I colored with a grey marker.

I then added FOAM TAPE along the edge of the window frame, filled it with SATIN RAINBOW CONFETTI added the cloud-like banners from the DOTTED PATTERNS SET 4 to create a curtain-like design and then closed the shaker up with a piece of cardstock that I had blended with some Atelier Inks from Ink On3 to make it look like a sunrise.

To the card panel, I blended out the brick background using the SQUARE BRICK stencil and Iced Spruce Distress Oxide ink. I then glued the shaker window in the center of the card front and glued the scallop frame to the background. I then glued the peonies onto the card front.

To finish the card off I stamped out the thinking of you sentiment from the PEONY TRIMMINGS and then die cut it out using a banner die from the PEONY TRIMMINGS coordinating dies.

I hope you find this card inspiring. Please stay safe and stay home and keep looking out your windows! As a health care worker, that means so much to me as it increases my chances of also staying safe and keeping my family safe.

Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
