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!

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!

• Autumn Garland Kit

  September 14, 2025

  I love this autumn garland kit!  I made it for my open house display and am in love! 

  Save

  I’ll show my own photos soon but wanted to share the video for it here.  It took me about 1 hour and 15 minutes to make and it’s huge & gorgeous!  I had many extra leaves left. The copper leaves and acorns add beautiful accents.  

  It comes with everything you need but hot glue.

  Saturday I held my new catalog launch party & open house.  I had a wonderful turnout!  Best thing was how much they loved the new products I displayed.  Here are some photos of my projects and swap cards:

  I loved playing with the new Joyful Days Memory & More cards. Such pretty pine themed cards!

  I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my new Holiday displays.  I love holding these open houses because I get to see customers & friends I don’t see regularly.  And I get to cook for them too, which I totally enjoy!

• Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique

  September 10, 2025

  ---

  Fall is in the air here in North Dakota.  Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!  

  Save

  It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here.  Here’s how I did the tree:

  1. I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
  2. Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle. 
  3. Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze.  I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly. 
  4. Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.  

  Save

  I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it.  The greeting is from the More Messages bundle.

  Thanks for stopping in today!
