Always BEE Yourself

Hey there!  Tricia here today to share with you a card made with one of my favorite stamp sets called Hey Honey!  I really wanted to create a bright and cheerful card so I grabbed this set and some of my favorite colors of card stock and got started.   

I decided to make a slimline card.   These can be tall and skinny or long and short – I use 3 1/4 x 8 1/4 for card panel dimensions whenever I am creating one of these.   I trimmed a piece of yellow card stock to this size and then using the Honeycomb stencil with some bright yellow ink I ink blended onto my panel.    

 For the sky, I used some aqua card stock and die cut several clouds using the Whatever the Weather SugarCut.   I adhered some with foam tape to add some dimension.    I die cut a white circle using the Zig Zag Stitched Circle SugarCut and this gave me the foundation for my sweet Hey Honey bear.   

 I stamped and die cut the bear from Hey Honey onto kraft card stock and then die cut him out along with the nose from colored card stock.   I added some Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink for the cheeks.   I stamped and die cut several of the bees from Hey Honey and added them to the card with foam tape.  I added some clear sparkle to the wings.   

The sentiment is from Hey Honey and was stamped below the bear using black ink.   I used my MISTI to get a really crisp sentiment – stamping it several times.   I added a small die cut red heart using the You’re my Type SugarCut.   

I added some yellow jewels to finish the card off.   This card is ready to send in the mail.   You just need to use a business size envelope and it will fit perfectly!    Thank you so much for stopping by today!
