Bee Hive Card

Hello Crafting Buddies!!


I have this adorable card to share with you today!!



I made this with the Honey Bee Stamps Bee Hive Card/ Honey Cut.  When I saw this die I fell in love with it and I knew I just had to have it!




Ingredients:

Honey Bee Stamps Busy Bees stamp set
Ellen Hutson Be-you-tiful die
Yellow card stock
Neenah Solar White paper
Black paper
Wild Honey distress ink
Gathered Twigs distress ink
Black ink
Copic marker BG10
Copic marker Y08
Wink of Stella pen
Foam tape

For this card I took some yellow card stock and the Bee Hive Honey Cuts die and cut out the card base and the front panel.  I took my blending tool and the Wild Honey and the Gathered Twigs distress inks and blended them onto the front panel and the front of the card.  I took some foam tape and put that on the back of the front panel and attached that to the front of the card.  I took a piece of Neenah Solar White paper, black ink and the Honey Bee Stamps Busy Bees stamp set and stamped some flowers and bees out.  I colored in the flower centers and the bees bodies with Copic marker Y08.  I colored the bees wings in with Copic marker BG10 and then I put some wink of stella on the wings and I fussy cut out the flowers and the bees and added them to the card.  I took some black paper and the Ellen Hutson Be-you-tiful die and cut the sentiment adding an extra "e" to bee and attached that to the card. I really love the way this card turned out!

I am entering it in the Honey Bee Stamps Buzzworthy Challenge on facebook ~ Challenge #10 Sunny Citrus color palette.


Thanks for stopping by!!

  1. Lori, this is soooooo cute! Your color choice is amazing for the honey comb. I can hear the little bees so busily working. It's a darling card. I wonder if you could use this die for a Christmas tree with the right green color and lots of decorations and a star on top and presents inside? Or an icy igloo with little kids on the inside? Fantastic card! hugs, de
