Add-Ons — Get Them All
Card #2 - Sweet as Can Bee
For this card, I stamped the blooms out on some Dove cardstock and masked them off. Then, with a blender brush, I added some Lemon Drop Reactive ink in a gradient over the top. Then, I stamped and die-cut a bee and popped it up on the front with some sequins and a sentiment! Super simple and I love how it turned out.
Card #3 — What the Vellum I Doing?
This card was over the top! hahaha I had to ask the question!
To create this card, I used the honeycomb window die from the kit to create a shaker. I die cut the honeycomb out of Dove White cardstock. Then, I added an acetate sheet to the back of it with Precision Glue. Next, I popped it up over the yellow glitter paper in the kit after stuffing it with sequins.
Next, I heat embossed the blooms and honeycomb images with white embossing powder onto some vellum. I colored them in on their back sides with some YR Copic markers. Next, I ran them through my Xyron Creative Station Lite to turn them into stickers and adhered them to the front of my shaker card.
Then, I stamped and colored the bee with Copic markers. Next, I heat embossed the sentiment onto some pitch black cardstock and fussy cut it out.
To finish off the card, glued the bee, sentiment and some sequins to the front.
