I love making cards with birds, flowers and butterflies and the Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers are just perfect for me because they do amazing birds, flowers and butterflies for me to use! Once all the dies are cut and the layers are put together it does not take that long to make the card which makes me happy. I love using sentiments that suit all occasions and this sentiment is just so cheery and sweet.

I am sure that whoever gets this card will be cheered up with the cute bird with the bird’s nest and the gorgeous Dogwood flowers on a gorgeous texture background.

Sending Big Hugs and Irises With Love

Today I have a card made for a very special person. She loves yellow and purple and was an avid gardener and taught me so much about gardening although I definitely do not have green fingers!! Her gardens were a riot of colour with the most amazing flowers including irises. This card is also my submission for the Honey Bee Stamps Buzzworthy Challenge for sparkly cards on Facebook.

The Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Iris Honey Cuts were perfect for this card. The irises look so real and are very easy to assemble even without the instructions. I have used purple and yellow inks to colour the irises and then added some yellow pollen to the centre of the flowers and some Ultrafine Crystal Glitter on the outside of the flowers for some sparkle. The leaves have been coloured with green inks before assembling with the flowers.

For the background to the flowers and foliage I have embossed white cardstock using the Honey Bee Stamps 3D Embossing Folder – Sandie’s Garden which is just lovely layered with purple glitter cardstock.

The background foliage are leaves from the Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Winter Greenery Honey Cuts which have been die cut from a light green cardstock and ink blended with green ink.

No garden is complete without bees and I have used the gorgeous bee from the Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Bugs Honey Cuts made from black and yellow cardstocks. The wings have been die cut out of vellum, coloured with a pale purple alcohol marker and then finished with some Perfect Pearls – Pearl for a luminescent finish.

The ‘With Love’ sentiment is from the Amazing Paper Grace With Love Regalia Etched dies and has been die cut out of purple glitter cardstock and stacked with another two layers of white dies before adding to the top right of the card. I have stamped the sentiment from the Honey Bee Stamps Mini Messages Stamps in dark purple ink on white cardstock and then die cut with the coordinating die. This was then matted with purple glitter cardstock and then added to the centre of the sentiment die with some foam squares.

Floral Garden Birthday Card

I started this card a while ago and it did not look right so I put it to one side for a while and then came back to it to finish it off. I love creating flowers using the Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers dies and after creating my base with Amazing Paper Grace dies and patterned paper from Mintay I added a riot of flowers and foliage from different Lovely Layers sets to create a paper flower garden. A garden would not be complete without birds and bees and and so I have added a couple of birds and a bee to finish this floral birthday card. Somehow all the colours seemed to work together an is reminiscent of a English country garden fill of wildflowers.
