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.

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.

See this Honeybee Home bundle here.  The stamp set has pretty images & greetings and the dies work great as silhouettes!

• A CUTE Kite Delight card idea; shared in a video with blending & coloring tips

  May 1, 2022

  ---

  Here is another playful card made with the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June Stampin' Up! catalog.  

  Save

  I used a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana ink to create a soft sky background.  Then the kite tails were stamped using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers.  Each kit was stamped using the coordinating color of card stock – Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana.  They are fussy cut since there is not a set of dies to match.  I don't mind this at all since they're easy to cut out. 

  This stamp set is NOT carrying over into the new catalog and will retire at the end of May. See it here:

  Save

  I used the Pick a Banner punch on the Highland Heather greeting banner.  The banner & kits are all popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals. 

  Save

  I also created two other cards during the video.  See all three cards below:

• TWO Cactus Cutes fun fold cards with video & measurements!

  May 1, 2022

  ---

  Here are two more Cactus Cuties cards from last Tuesday's FB Live.  Follow me here on Facebook to see each video and more! 

  This first card features three of the new In Colors from the brand new Annual Catalog.  They're Sweet Sorbet (red), Parakeet Party (green) and Tahitian Tide (turquoise).  Aren't they vibrant and eye catching!  

  Save

  Check out my In Color bundle here; it's available just through May 7th.  Get free product when you opt in for it like the In Color matte dots seen here.  The Tahitian Tide DSP on this card is part of my In Color bundle too!  

  I call this card a Dutch Door card fold.  It's pretty easy to do and makes great use of your card stock too.  Watch how with my quick tip in the video here. 

  Save

  This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot.  It's called a Split Panel card.  The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP.  We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog.  I love these free paper options for hosts!! 

  Save

  My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody.  A little bit of Coastal Cabana too.  We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers.  You can see the measurements below.

  This style of fun fold card is super easy; I hope you'll try one!

• New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set

  April 29, 2022

  ---

  I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here.  I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd. 

  The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers. 

  Save

  I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them!  They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.  

  If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th.  See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

  I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder.  But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in.  Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.

  The Kite Delight stamp set is retiring at the end of May.  I also created two other cards with it during the video.  See all three cards below:
