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.

Save

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.

Save

You can see this pretty bundle here online.

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

Save

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!

Save

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"

Plentiful Plants Cards

June 14, 2021

I took some time to play with the new Plentiful Plants bundle last week and came up with these cards:

Save

Can you believe that both the brick, the pots and leaves are all cut from the designer paper? I did stamp the plant on the left but the others are all die-cut from the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP. I love when Stampin' Up! gives us paper and dies that coordinate.

Save

The bottom Soft Succulent CS is made with the Stitched Leaves die; one of my new favorites! See it here.

~~~

This next card also features the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP.

Save

Each of the three plants & pots are from the DSP except for the bowl in the center. That is a die-cut made from Cinnamon Cider CS. I placed them on a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends dies. I sponged the bottom with Cinnamon Cider ink.

This card is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 1 1/4" and 6 3/4". The right flap is glued down and has a 1" X 4" Soft Succulent strip adhered to it. It was textured with the Macrame 3D embossing folder seen here.

Save

Bright Color Combo card with the new Watercolor Shapes set

June 11, 2021

I have lots of creative challenges for my Flowerbug's Team and this time it was a color challenge featuring Night of Navy, Magenta Madness & Granny Apple Green. Fun, vibrant colors I knew would be fun to play with.

Save

I cut off an inch from the right edge of my Navy card and added a strip of Granny Apple Green DSP on the inside edge.

I chose to use a stamp set that I hadn't used yet; Watercolor Shapes seen here.

Save

I stamped the watercolor shapes all over the 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" White CS but I did stamp off first for a lighter hue. The greeting stands out more then.

I found a 'hello' greeting in each of the following stamp sets; Blossoms in Bloom, Create with Friends, Timeless Tropical, Sweet as a Peach, Artistically Inked & Sweet Strawberry. I had no idea we had that many 'hello's' in our sets!

What do you think of this color combination?

Save

I stamped a few of these images twice and fussy cut them so I could add some dimension to the card front. I also added the new In Color Square Gems and a few of the Clear Epoxy Essentials that I colored Granny Apple Green with a Blends marker.

Inked Embossing Folder technique; it’s SO pretty!

June 10, 2021
I decided to play with an old favorite technique where you add ink directly onto an embossing folder 'before' you run it through the die-cutting machine. I shared how on the FB Live video here.

This first card features the Polished Pink CS & ink.

Save

I used two new products in our 2021-22 Annual Catalog; the Pretty Embossing folder and the Create with Friends stamp set seen here. That pretty die-cut label is from the Potted Succulents dies seen here.

This Pretty Embossing folder seen here is my free giveaway for online orders over $50 this month (before tax & shipping) using the host code seen below.

I made one in each of our newest In Colors; Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent and the Polished Pink.

Save

I shared a video with other techniques using the Pretty Embossing folder my FB Live here. Or click on the photo/link below.

Save

I cannot stop playing with these fabulous new In Colors. They are my absolute favorite grouping for many years! And that ribbon!!! See the entire new 2021-23 In color line here.

Measurements:
- White card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
