Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Dianthus Trellis Card

I have a very quick and easy card to share with you today that is a different take on Bibiana’s trellis cards. Rather than cutting strips to make the trellis I have made this card using the fabulous Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Barn Wood Fence Honey Cuts to make the trellis. I then make some dianthus using the Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Dianthus Honey Cuts and added the chickadee from the Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers – Winter Birds Honey Cuts. I finished off the card with a sentiment from Pink Fresh Studios – Wonderful Sentiments. This was so quick and easy to do and looked gorgeous.

My Project

For my project I cut a piece of white cardstock 11″ x 4 1/4 out of white cardstock and then scored at 5 1/2″ along the long side and folded the card in half. I then die cut the fence out of white cardstock and used this as a guide to trim the front of the card to fit the gate. The gate was then adhere at the top to the card front flap. I finished the gate by adding the crossbars to the gate.

The flowers were die cut from white cardstock and coloured with Pink Diamond ink and assembled according to the instructions that came with the die set. I die cut the leaves and base of the flowers out of green cardstock and added some Mowed Lawn ink for some more depth to the leaves. The flowers and extra leaves were then assembled.

I die cut the bird out of light grey, black and white cardstocks. I added some Lemon Whip and Sunshine inks to the main body of the bird before assembling it according to the instructions with the die set. I then played around with the placement of the flowers and bird before using some Press and Seal to then add to the front of the card.

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment from the Pink Fresh Studios – Wonderful Sentiments in Obsidian Pigment ink and die cut it with the coordinating die and adhered it to the front of the card as shown.

I am channeling my inner Bibi Cameron with this gorgeous trellis card featuring a magnificent rose made using the Altenew Craft-a-Flower Garden Rose Layering Die Set. These roses are so beautiful and very easy to create. I have had some technical difficulties with making a video on how I coloured these roses but I will look at doing one shortly.

My project:

I have made the 5 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ card according to Bibi’s instructions linked below. I have die cut all the petals and leaves out of Neenah Classic Crest 80Ib White Cardstock and coloured them with the inks I have listed below. I assembled the rose according to the instructions on the packaging and added it to the front of the gate card as shown. I then stamped the sentiment from the Pink Fresh Studio Wonderful Sentiments Stamp and Die Set on white cardstock and die cut it out using the coordinating die and adhered it to the top of the card.

To finish I have added some clear drops to the rose.

Hello Honey Bee Stamps: Lovely Layers Dogwood Flowers

On By patriciamanhireIn Patricia's Creations2 Comments

Kia ora Koutou

I am really loving the Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers Honey Cuts and I have another gorgeous card to share with yo featuring the Lovely Layers – Dogwood Flowers. This is such a gorgeous set and I have just purchased the birds from Honey Bee Stamps and I can’t wait to make some more cards with the flowers and birds together. I love the soft pastels of these flowers and they really pop with the blue ink blended background.

My Project:

I have made a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ base card out of white cardstock. I cut a piece of white cardstock 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and ink blended blue and pale yellow inks. I die cut two Honey Bee Stamps Delicate Daisy A2 Cover Plate Top out of white cardstock, glued them together and the added this to the front of the card.

I die cut two base layers of the Dogwood dies and adhered them together. I then coloured the stems with brown copic markers to create the branches. The flowers and leaves were die cut separately and coloured using Pink Fresh Studio inks – Grassy Knoll, Key Lime and Bubble Gum. These were added to the branches and I then added the branches and flowers to the front of the card as shown.

To finish I added a sentiment from the Spellbinders Be Bold Glimmer Sentiments that had been hot foiled with Matte Gold.

Honey Bee Dogwood Birthday Card

I have a sweet and simple card to share with you today. I am really loving the intricate and detailed layering flower dies that are being released by Honey Bee Stamps and so I took the plunge and purchased the Honey Bee Stamps Lovely Layers – Dogwood Honey Cuts and had a play. I prefer soft pastel shades and for this card I have used soft pink and green inks to make dogwood flowers that pop on a white framed embossed background with a simple foiled sentiment.

My Project

For my card today I have made a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ tent card and embossed a piece of white cardstock using the stunning Honey Bee Stamps Daisy Field 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front. I die cut a frame using the largest die from the Lawn Fawn Stitched Scallop Rectangle dies and added it to the front of the card with foam strips for more dimension.

I die cut two base layers of the Dogwood dies and adhered them together. I then coloured the stems with brown copic markers to create the branches. The flowers and leaves were die cut separately and coloured using Pink Fresh Studio inks – Grassy Knoll, Key Lime and Bubble Gum. These were added to the branches and I then added the branches and flowers to the front of the card as shown.

To finish I added a sentiment from the Spellbinders Be Bold Glimmer Sentiments that had been hot foiled with Matte Gold.
