3 unique Honeybee Home card ideas

January 17, 2022

This week I'm featuring cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team. Today both cards showcase the Honeybee Home bundle seen here.

This first card was made by Candace. She is a master at coloring & sponging as you can see.

She stamped & die-cut the floral image multiple times for a pretty bouquet and adhered them to her beautiful sponged background. The gorgeous sky background is done with Pacific Point ink and a very light hand at sponging. She colored the flowers with watercolor pencils.

You can see this pretty bundle here online.

Next is a totally different card made by Annette for our Monochromatic swap this month.

She stamped the bee and greeting in Crumb Cake ink onto a Stitched Rectangle die-cut. Then added a few die-cuts from the Honeybee Blooms dies and layered it on a Crumb Cake layer. Simply beautiful!

~~~

Mary made this next card with this same bundle along with the Heart & Home designer paper.

She used 3 layers of this pretty paper as a background for her dies & greeting. Great idea!

Her colors are Pale Papaya & Garden Green. The White greeting tag is one of my favorite 'go to' punches called the Tailored Tag punch.

Measurements:

White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
Pale Papaya 3 3/4" X 5"
DSP layers 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"

Triple Pane Bamboo Beauty with a masked moon

July 2, 2021

Two-toned cards can be especially striking and I think this Bamboo Beauty card done in greens proves the point.

Save

I used just one color of ink here; Old Olive however the card base is Mossy Meadow. I did stamp off once before stamping some of the images. I made this card in a recent FB Live video. You can see it here. Or scroll down to view it on my blog below.

I started with a 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" piece of White CS. I placed a post-it note mask made with a 1 3/4" circle on it for the moon before sponging and stamping. It's really quite easy to do (see in the video)!

Afterwards I trimmed the stamped White CS into three pieces measuring 1 9/16th" wide. The tag is made with the Tailor Made Tags dies.

Save

And here is the video where I share two more cards; scroll down to the end to see this card made.

Bamboo Beauty with unique backgrounds & video tutorial

July 1, 2021

The Bamboo Beauty stamp set caught my eye right away. I knew it would be perfect for unique background techniques. click here to see it.

I featured it in this week's Facebook Live. See it here on my FB page or here on YouTube. Or scroll down to watch it right here.

What do you think? I know some people aren't into bamboo or this Asian style but it's so my style! I call this type of set a 'scene builder' which inspires me to use techniques to create unique backgrounds.

Save

I'm focusing on this card today. The colors are Misty Moonlight, Black & White with a touch of purple. I used Fresh Freesia on the upper left card and Highland Heather on the right. I used our Blending Brushes for the background, black twine from the Essentials pack and a greeting label from the Messages die.

Save

Here's the video; click on the image below to watch it.

I'll share details on the other bamboo card soon. *See details on the yellow card here.
