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:

Template 21 Save

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

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!

The greeting and flower die are placed on a circle die-cut from the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here.

  • Flight & Airy surprise accordion fold with video & free project sheet

    I shared this beautiful card in last week's Live video. We also made it at my local Card Clubs as well.  

    Heartfelt Hello card front Save

    There are so many fabulous projects and features on this pretty card front I'll list them here:

    • The colors are Fresh Freesia with Boho Blue & White.
    • The Fresh Freesia layer is first cut with the Perennial Postage dies before texturing. 
    • The beautiful texture is from the Layering Floral 3D embossing folder seen here.  I cannot recommend this folder enough!  I rubbed my Craft White ink pad directly over the deep texture to highlight the flowers. *watch the video
    • The pretty butterfly is from our Paper Butterfly Accents. We added Boho Blue & Fresh Freesia ink to it with Blending Brushes. 
    • The greeting stamps are from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.  It's one of our free choices with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 
    • The White greeting label is made by punching the ends of a 1" wide strip of card stock with our Handmade Tag punch.  It's layered onto the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
    • See the Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's another free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order through February, or while supplies last.
    • The inside layers were also made with the Perennial Postage dies (like the front layer) 

    But the coolest thing about this card is that you get a fun surprise once you open it! 

    Heartfelt Hello Club Save

    There's a full strip of Flight or Fancy designer paper inside, folded accordion style in the center. This leaves the outer areas flat for adding greetings etc.  Remember there's a video tutorial to watch here or below.

    You can add more labels, greetings or punches on each of the accordion folds as well if you wish.

    Next is an adorable card made by Marla featuring the Sunny Days designer series paper seen here. 

    Jan Marla Save

    I asked her where she found her cute basket shape and she cased it from an old valentine card she received from her grandmother years ago. Isn't that cool?!!  

    The greeting is from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set seen here.  She fussy cut the strawberries from the Sunny Days designer paper.  I just love this card!!

    Next is a pretty card made by Karen G who featured the Flight & Airy designer paper seen here.  It's free with a $50 Stampin' Up! order through February 29th, or while supplies last. 

    Jan Karen Flight & Airy Save

    She cased the layout from Tracey Bradley I believe.  Such a pretty and simple way to make this pretty designer paper the star! 

    The greeting and textured background are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle is fussy cut.

    FLIGHT & AIRY 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    The Flight & Airy designer series paper has been one of the most popular choices so far; I wonder how long it will last!

    ~~~

    Lastly today is a card made by Karen A who also featured the Flight & Airy designer paper. 

    Jan Karen FlightAiry Save

    She simply cut a selection of the birds with the Deckled Circle dies and made it the focus by keeping the rest of her card white. The White layers are textured with the beautiful Layered Florals embossing folder seen here.  

    It's a simple fun fold too!

    We held our monthly team swap last week and I am proud to show off their talent with you. 

    First is a pretty card made by Jane who featured the Softly Stippled designer paper seen here. 

    Jan Jane Softly Stippled Save

    She also used the Deckled Circle dies, Something Fancy & Gorgeously Made dies, along with the Something Fancy stamp set for her greeting.  Love the colors of Wild Wheat with Lost Lagoon together! 

    There are many possible color combos in this pretty designer paper. Most people pass by it in the catalog or online but in person the pretty colors and soft prints sell it!

    This Softly Stippled DSP is one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. Earn it free with any $50 Stampin' Up! purchase. See it online here.

    Next is a fun fold card made by Paula who also chose the Softly Stippled designer paper. 

    Jan Paula Softly Stippled. Save

    Her fun fold is a 'Joy fold' turned on it's side.  Very cool.  It's filled with textures and two coordinating colors of Wild Wheat & Calypso Coral which are the colors in the pretty designer paper. Her greeting is from the Softly Sophisticated bundle and the Double Oval punch is used too. 

    Measurements:

    • Wild Wheat – card base is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2", middle layer is 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • Calypso Coral is 4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/4"

    Next is a beautiful monochromatic card made by Candy who chose to use the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here.  It includes both a stamp set & the pretty embossing folder used here. 

    Jan Candy Quiet Reflection Save

    Her colors are Very Vanilla with Pecan Pie.  That main scenic image is from the Quiet Reflection stamp set seen here.  It's a distinktive set which means it provides multiple hues of color when stamped with one ink. 

    Measurements:

    • Pecan Pie card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
    • Vanilla 5 1/4" X 4", center is 3" square, scrap for greeting die-cut (Perennial Postage dies)
