Honeybee Home - You're The Nicest


Hi There! I have another Honeybee Home card to share with you today. 

This one is super pretty, created using mainly Pale Papaya - which is one of our newest In Colours.

I coloured the flower heads using Stampin' Blends alcohol markers but the stems and leaves were coloured using a Blender Pen and the Garden Green ink pad - we don't have a Blends marker in Garden Green and I really needed the green to match the paper :o)


The paper is from the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper pack and the Basic White panel was die cut using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Awesome Otters - With The Simply Marbelous DSP


Both the Awesome Otters stamp set and the Simply Marbelous 6" Designer Series Paper are FREE products you can select with a qualifying purchase during our current Sale-a-Bration promotion. You can find full details about this promotion under the tab at the top of this Blog.

This wasn't my original design for this card, I had something completely different in mind - which didn't work out :o) Sometimes we just have to adapt as we go :o)


I used the Layering Circle dies to cut out the Otters. Each one was coloured using a different set of Blends alcohol markers.

Honeybee Home - Quick and Easy Card - Video Tutorial


I'm still playing with the Honeybee Home bundle! I had so many ideas for it when I saw it in the catalogue that I had to get it!

I used the stamp set and the coordinating Honeybee Blooms dies for these cards, together with paper from the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper pack.


There are outline dies for all the images in the stamp set but there are also additional dies that I hadn't used yet, so I wanted to create a card using them :o)


The card base is in Basic Grey and the layer is in Fresh Freesia for this first card. All these colours come from the paper used.


This is the card I created in the Video. I used Pale Papaya for the layer this time.

There are 2 additional floral dies and 1 foliage die in the set, I used them all for these cards.


The sentiment mat was die cut using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Here is the Video ...
