BEE Floral

This card was rolling around in my head last night while I tossed and turned.  Similar to the previous Sending Flowers card but with Bee's buzzing around these Bright Flowers.


This Sending Flowers Die will be available Feb. 4th for you to order.  I LOVE it and used another pattern of the Pleased as Punch 12 X12 Designer paper. I nestled a Pineapple Punch Bee Hive behind the Flowers.  The little flowers were cut out in Highland Heather, Melon Mambo and Flirty Flamingo.  I colored the stems with a Pear Pizzazz marker and used a dot of Tombow to add the Flowers.


Scattered Pineapple Punch Bees around the circle.  I can see this Die with a Bunny in the Flowers for adorable Easter cards!  Make sure you add this to your Wish List for Feb. 4th!

My BEE Fancy Fold


I took yesterday's card and turned it around for a Fancy Fold in Crushed Curry.  And I used Chad's trick from his card and hooked the Hive under the Bee.



I used Crushed Curry card stock and ink for the Bee Hive and cut with the matching dies.  I Scored  the card base at 2 inches and 7 1/2 inches.  TWO paper patterns decorate the panels.  1 3/4 X 4 in the Gold Bees.  3 1/4 X 4 for the large panel.


The Hive is popped up and attached to the left panel.  I added the partial honey comb with a little bit of Tombow glue.  Close up the card and Pop up the Large Bee so it holds down the Hive.  I added a smaller Bee at the top.



and add some stamping to the inside!!!  I used the Honeycomb die and a sponge for the the Honeycomb effect.  Thanks to Chad for this Inspiration!!!

BEE Creative


I had a busy weekend and Saturday spent the day at a local Demo Retreat.  So much fun and Chad Williams our DDM from Stampin' Up was in attendance and gave us some valuable information on building our Business!  Not only did he sit at my table, but I was lucky enough to get one of his SWAPS!!  Yes, Chad stamps and brought swaps!!



And a FUN FOLD!!  How cute is this card!  The Bee Hive actually slips under the little Bee.  Open the card and you see one of the beautiful paper patterns!




Open this flap and you have plenty of space to write a note and add some stamping. 


This Fold uses a half sheet of Whisper White card stock.  Score at 2 inches and 6 1/4 inches.

Coordination is coming....

One of the many perks of being a demo is PRE-Order!!  Coordinating products are coming Feb. 4th!  I received 2 of these new products in my latest order and made an adorable card!  Brian gives you a run down of all the products you can purchase soon!  Make your WISH LIST and earn FREE 
Sale-a-bration items when you order $50 in merchandise!



And here is my card using Sending Flowers Dies and Pleased as Punch 12 X12 Designer paper.


Blushing Bride card base and this Die cuts out the flowers but not the outer circle.  So I cut a 5 1/4 X 4 inch piece of Whisper White and left enough room at the bottom for a Sentiment!

Cut a 4X4 piece of the Pleased a Punch Gingham paper for a background.  Colored the flowers with Pear Pizzzazz, Blushing Bride, Pineapple Punch, Rich Razzleberry, Highland Heather  and Calypso Coral markers.  LOVE this and such an easy card!!


I thought about adding Sequins or Rhinestones to the flower centers, but I love how these flutter away from the card and look so Bright!  I see lots of love coming to this Die for my Spring time card making!!
