Honey Bee with Golden Honey Designer Paper


I know some people do not like yellow but I always have.  When I was young I chose to a yellow and orange them for my bedroom!  (The walls were yellow and the only orange were in accents so it wasn't too garish!)

When yellow is paired with Black and White it's a happy and striking color combination in my opinion!  

Here I used Daffodil Delight with the pretty Golden Honey Designer series paper.  It's one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  I was thrilled to see another black and white designer paper in the offering this year!  You can pair it with just about any color!  It also has gold foil accents on many of the sheets.  click here to see it.

My gals made this card at my New Catalog Stamp a Stack this last Saturday.  The new Honey Bee bundle coordinates with this paper beautifully.  

Measurements:

  • Daffodil Delight main card – 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”
  • Black 3 5/8” X 4 ¾”
  • White scrap for hive and for ‘thank you’ greeting
  • Golden Honey left is 2 ½”X 3 ¼”, right is 2” X 3 ¼”

  • The easy way to do the Whitewashing Technique; with video


    I've been playing with the Whitewashing Technique lately. Today I'm sharing a card I made on Facebook Live with the Honeybee Home bundle. 

    You can see another group of cards I used this technique on here. 

    Please watch the video to see how to do this.  Here are some tips:

    • I stamped the main image using Gorgeous Grape ink onto the same color card stock.
    • Let it dry a bit and color the image in with White Craft ink and a water painter brush.
    • If you want to see the stamped image you'll want to use a light amount of White Craft ink. 
    • I add water to some White Craft ink in a puddle and use that to 'paint'.  
    • You can paint with strokes to indicate lines on your image. 

    I used the Heart & Home doilies under the Tasteful Label die-cut.  

    The background paper is the Simply Marbelous Sale-a-Bration DSP that I added a bit of Highland Heather ink to. 

    Here's the video!  Click on the picture below to watch it. The Whitewashing Technique is the 2nd project I share.

  • How I made this neat Pop-up Gift Bag Fun Fold card


    We made this fantastic Pop-up Gift Bag fun fold card at my January card clubs. It's such a unique and special way to add a gift card or a little something extra inside a card! 

    I used the Friendly Hello bundle from our 2022 Sale-a-Bration brochure. See it here. It's free with any $100 purchase from my online Stampin' Up! store.  

    Isn't it extraordinary!?  Everyone loved their finished card and most were surprised at how easy it was. Here's a close-up of the inside.

    Below is the template with measurements.  Your best bet is to watch the video below to see how to assemble it and adhere it inside a card.  

    I did turn this card into a fun fold as well with a belly band but you sure wouldn't have to.  It could be placed in the fold of any card you make! 

    The Friendly Hello bundle includes both a full photopolymer stamp set and a package of beautiful 12 X 12" pack of designer paper!  

    The colors include Fresh Freesia, Granny Apply Green Pool Party, Shaded Spruce, Black & Petal Pink.  I chose to focus on the Fresh Freesia & Granny Apple Green for this card. 

    Here are the measurements for the card: 

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2" & 7 1/2"
      White 4" X 4 3/4" & 2 3/4" X 4" plus scrap for Hippo & Friends die-cut
      Pale Papaya scrap for Hippo & Friends die-cut
      Granny Apple Green 3/4" X 10" scored at 3 1/2" & 7 7/8"
      Friendly Hello DSP for bag – 4 X 9 1/2" scored on the 4" side at 1/2" & 3", and on the long side at 1/2", 4 1/2", 5", 5 1/2" & 9" & DSP for front 3 1/4" X 4" & 1 3/4" X 4"
    • the leaves & buds are punched with the Bough punch seen here

    You can see what the card looks like closed in the picture above; on the left.

  • Who knew?!


    If someone had told me I'd be doing 8 videos a month 10 years ago I would have scoffed! 

    One of my best friends encouraged me to do videos years ago and I told here I would never, ever do videos.  She loved to remind me about that! *Sadly she passed away a few months ago.

    I've been watching my YouTube subscribers grow and grow and cannot believe that I now have over 15,000 people following me!  Incredible! 

    I get so many lovely comments from my followers; it truly means a lot that you are all enjoying and getting inspired by them.  

    Thank you, THANK YOU!!  You are why I LOVE what I do! 

    If you're not following me on YouTube yet, here's the link.
