Honey Bee Stamps Bee Bold Blog Hop



Hi everyone! Welcome to Honey Bee Stamps Bee Bold Blog Hop. All the new release sets from Honey Bee are now available in store and today we have line up several fun & creative projects for your inspiration using the new sets. 

If you've been following my blog, you know that I am a big time animal lover. Needless to say, when I saw the No Probllama, I did a happy squealing. Hah! This llama is so darn cute! 



For my card, I keep it clean & semi simple. After I stamped & colored the llama, I die cut the sentiment on the panel using Bee Bold Alphabet dies. Then, I trace the opening on a piece of cardstock and inked it with distress oxide inks. I put this piece behind the letter opening. Adhere the panel with foam tape. Finish by adding some sequins from Cloudy Day sequin mix.




Okay, on to the next card. This time, I am using Frappe Shake Card dies. Now, you can use this dies to make frappe shape card, or you could cut it in half and use it on normal rectangle card. In all honesty, I was going to do the shape card, but I messed up the coloring and since I don't like to waste paper, I decided to just cut it and use the still blank site & start over. :)




I inked the cardstock with distess oxide ink and then run my wet watercolor brush over it to kind of soften the colors & the blending. Once it dry, I die cut the "thankful" sentiment. And then stamp the sentiment from Grateful set. I also use the Sentiment Banner dies to highlight the word friendship. I sprinkle some Candlelight confetti mix to mimick the bubble tea look, which is one of my favorite drink.



GIVEAWAY:

Woot, woot! Honey Bee is giving away two $50 gift certificate to the store. All you need to do is leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win. Winners will be announced on HERE of the Honey Bee blog on August 10th.

I'm usually not a llama fan but the Honey Bee one has changed my mind. Cute card. I love Boba tea too so now I'm gonna have to get the frappe die and make a Boba card.

Unknown said...

The llama card is so much fun. Something about the way you positioned the letters makes it feel very sassy, and who doesn't need a sassy llama in their life? And I like how you mounted the cup on your card front for the other card. It really makes for an interesting look. Thanks for sharing these great ideas with us!

Hi Vera,

I have been looking for a llama stamp image that is fun, sweet looking and I think that Honey Bee stamps have done that here. So that one is going in the basket soon. The other image is something I probably would not use but I do love the effect it gives on different projects. TFS :O) xxxx
