Simple & fun card sketch with Honeybee Home

Do you ever use card sketches to get inspired?  I love them!  I find most of them on Pinterest. 

We use card sketches & color combos on my Flowerbug's Team group for challenges & inspiration.  It's so fun to see the different projects everyone comes up with. This is the sketch we're using now:

I used it as inspiration to create this card with the Honeybee Home bundle and the Simply Marbelous designer series paper. 

Save

It's such an easy sketch to use.  Some are using card stock, others designer paper and one used ribbon!  

My card is Basic Bray with Bumblebee accents.  Gray & yellow are beautiful together.  In fact one of my bathrooms has these colors! 

The Simply Marbelous designer paper was my color inspiration.  This 6 X 6" DSP is free with a $50 Stampin' Up! order through the month of February; or while supplies last.  See it here.

On the video I share my tips on placing these 1/4" strips.  It's a little tricky but entirely doable!

• Lovely Lily Pad Wow Card

  February 3, 2020

  ---

  Look at this gorgeous card Candace made for our last Flowerbug's Team card swap.  She's a fabulous card designer!

  Save

  She used the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set and the Lily Pad dies for this card.  She colored the stamped lily with Wink of Stella. Did you know that if you stamp in our Classic ink you can just blend the colors without adding more ink? Super easy; especially with a nice outline image like this one. 

  Her colors here are Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay with White and Olive accents.  

  The greeting here is from the 'Thanks for the Laughs' stamp set on page 11 of your Mini Catalog.  See it here. 

  Save

  The Lovely Lily Pad stamp set is free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion throught March of 2020.  The dies are free with a $100 order.  Place a $150 order and you get both FREE plus $15 in free product and Buyer Brownie Points from me.  See details on my loyalty program here.
