Hi Crafty Friends!!
The Honey Bee Stamps Cheerful Love Release is now available in the store. To
celebrate the new release, we are having a two day blog hop called Cheerful Love.
So please hop along with us both days to be inspired!
Be sure to visit each blog & leave a comment to be entered to win!!! We will be
giving away two $30 gift cards to the Honey Bee Stamps store, one from each
day. The winners will be posted on our blog Tuesday, February 27th.
I started off with a 4x5 1/4" piece of Arches Watercolor Paper and stamped " Celebration" from the Honey Bee Stamps Cheerful Sentiments with Vesafine Onyx Black Ink and sprinkled clear embossing powder. Next I taped down one of the three of the Honey Bee Stamps Hexagon Layered stencils and brushed on Picked Raspberry, Abandoned Coral, and Fossilized Amber Distress Oxides with Clarity Stencil Brushes to blend the three all across the watercolor paper.
I then used a strip of black card stock and Nuvo Clear Mark Ink and stamped "this calls for" and "a celebration". I sprinkled it with white embossing powder, then used my heat tool to set it. Next, I glued it to my card with a small piece of foam tape. Then I used my ATG Tape Gun to adhere the entire thing to a top folding card base in a light grey color. Finally I finished it off by adding a few of Honey Bee Stamp's Little Love embellishments around the sentiment.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Don't forget to go check out all of the amazing crafters on today's blog hop!
