INKohouts Design: New Release

Hi there crafty friends!

I'm so excited to be part of the Honey Bee Stamps Fall Release! Today is Day 3 and I get the pleasure of creating with the Gather Together and Forest Friends Stamp Sets. I created the background with lots of Copic Markers in Autumn shades. This background was actually easy to make. This card was my first time trying this technique and I have shared the whole process in the video below. The sweet critters were also colored with Copic Markers. I am in love with this adorable gathering of forest animals!

Below I have attached a process video with the steps to making a fall tree with Copic Markers. I also have a YouTube channel if you'd rather watch there. Please click HERE to visit my YouTube channel.

All of the new Honey Bee Stamps products will be available for purchase Thursday at Midnight! All of the other supplies used in my video can be found in a supply list at the end of this post.

The inside of the card was stamped with the Forest Friends Stamps set. I heat embossed one of the sentiments from the Gather Together set in Antique Gold Ink.

I added a little bit of shimmer to the leaves with the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors Watercolor Set. I love the subtle sparkle it adds to the beautiful fall leaves!

All of the Honey Bee Stamps crew will be taking part in a Fall Release Blog Hop on Friday! Please stop back by to see more from this fantastic release!

Good Morning Crafty Friends!

Swim along with our New Release - Under The Sea with Honey Bee! Everything is available for purchase today in the Honey Bee Stamps Shop HERE.

Warning!!! This is a picture heavy post....SO MANY AWESOME THINGS TO SHARE!

I've included a video below that details exactly how I used these awesome new stamps! I hope that you will check it out. If you'd like to watch the video on YouTube, please go HERE!

I have created a set of 4 cards using the beautiful Zen Ocean and Mermaid Song Stamp Sets. I couldn't wait to heat emboss that HUGE Zen Ocean Stamp and use my Distress Oxide Inks to blend over the top.

I created a space on each card to stamp the greetings by using the Honey Bee Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut white card stock. I adhered each piece at an angle and then simply trimmed off the three sides that hung over the edge of my heat embossed background.

Each sentiment was found in the huge 6x8 Mermaid Song Stamp Set. I placed each panel into my Misti and stamped the greetings in Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

I also stamped and heat embossed several single images included in the Zen Ocean set. I colored each image very simply by using my inky blending tools. After fussy cutting each critter or sea shell, I added them along side each greeting.

Honey Bee Stamps has also released many new sequin mixes and embellishments! I used the Clear Bubbles Sequin mix on all but one of the cards. On the other I used a stick on Pearl I had in my stash. Each of the finished panels was added to a top folding card base.

Below is a product list of the new release!
