Make Waves

Hi all!  First let me send out a prayer to all of those dealing with the aftermath of Harvey.  I have family in Louisiana and lots of friends in the Katy/Houston area and it is just breaking my heart to see what they're having to deal with.  Praying the rain stops and the water recedes quickly!

Ok, here's a card I made using the Honey Bee Stamps Ocean Bliss set.  I colored her with Copics then fussy cut her.  The background was created by adhering the hexagon shaped pieces from the Hexagon Cover Plate to the card base.  I love the texture it adds!  I added a few sequins and a sentiment from the Mermaid Song set to finish it off.




Thanks for stopping by!

CAS-ual Fridays Blog Challenge

Hi all!  It's time for a NEW Cas-ual Fridays Blog Challenge!  This one is nice and simple - to use kraft and white on your project.  I created a background using a flower from the Mon Ami stamp set, then layered a sentiment from the So Pretty stamp set over it.  I used my Mini Misti when stamping the sentiment because I wanted it nice and bold, so I inked it up twice.  I just eye-balled the flowers when lining them up, though ;)

Happy Flowery Birthday

Hi all!  I'm here with a very feminine birthday card using the Honey Bee Stamps set, Country Blooms.  I randomly stamped the flowers onto watercolor paper then embossed them with white embossing powder.  I colored them with my Zig pens, blending with water and a paint brush.  I then added some silver cord behind the sentiment from the Happy Everything stamp set.  I added the yellow background to make it work for the CTD457.

Bold Thanks

Hi all!  Here's a card I made for the MFT Camp Create Day 3:  Background Bonanza.  I used the Framework stencil to sponge on two different blue inks (blueberry around edges, Blu Raspberry in the middle) onto smooth white card stock.  I then offset the stencil just a bit, and added a third blue ink - Tropical Teal - and sponged it again.  I like the shadow effect it created!  I then used a retired 'Thanks' die to cut out the background layer I had created, as well as the card base.  I cut it out 5 times, then adhered it inside the card so when you open it, you can still see it.  The stamped sentiment is from the Grateful For You stamp set that I embossed with white embossing powder onto black licorice card stock.  I added a few clear sequins as an extra detail.

Pretty in Pink

HI all!  Happy Thursday - yes, I'm posting a day late ;)   Almost Friday!!!  I have a pretty in pink Hello card for you today using the following Honey Bee Stamps products:  Lotus Blossom stamp and matching die, A2 Double Stitched Frames die, and the Hello dies.  This little stamp sure can pack a big punch when embossed!  I embossed the outer edge of my pink lemonade card base, then added a few extra around the sentiment.  I love the layered Hello dies - such a cool look!  I added a few sequins to the Lotus tucked under the 'hello'.

Happy flowery birthday

Hi all!  I'm here with some flowery-goodness using the Honey Bee Stamps set, Country Blooms.  I'm kinda totally obsessed with this set.  ;)  I colored them with Copics then used the matching dies to cut everything out.  I used the smallest of the Hexagon Layering Background Stencils to sponge in some color on the layer directly behind the flowers and sentiment.  The sentiment is from the Happy Everything stamp set - I loooove the mix of fonts!




Thank you for stopping by!

Angel
