Honey Bee Stamps – Thoughtful Flowers

Kia ora Koutou

I am enjoying entering in challenges from different paper craft companies as it helps to challenge me to go outside my comfort zone and learn and grown. Today I have a card made for a tic-tac-toe challenge on the Honey Bee Stamps | Buzzworthy Challenges Facebook Group. I have selected the Copic colouring, embossing folder and sequins row for my card today.

For my card I have coloured a piece of white cardstock randomly with Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn and Sheer Lilac Distress inks and then embossed it with the Honey Bee Stamps Embossing Folder Sandie’s Garden. I spritzed the embossed card with some Glimmer Mist and splattered some pearl watercolour before adding it to the front of the card.

I stamped the main image and the small images from the Honey Bee Stamps Everything Beautiful 6″ x 6″ Stamp set on Copic friendly paper and coloured the images with Copic markers listed below the photos. These images were then die cut with the coordinating dies before adding clear Wink of Stella and some Sparkling Dust.

I die cut a medium frame from the Pink Fresh Studio Notched Corner dies and added it to the card with foam squares. I also added a couple of single flowers under the frame – one to the top right under the frame and one to the bottom left under the frame before securing the frame to the card. I added a small label to the centre of the frame.

I added the main coloured image to the left side of the frame using foam tape to keep the image flat. I also added a couple of extra flowers behind the larger image.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in black ink and die cut it with the coordinating die. I also die cut another plain die and stacked the two dies together with the stamped image on top. The sentiment was then added to the bottom right over the flowers and frame and with some foam squares for more stability.

To finish the card I added some purple sequins from my stash to complete the tic-tac-toe brief.
