Hello and welcome to my blog; I hope that you are having a wonderful day. Today, I am going to share with you a super quick and easy window card using a new bundle from Stampin' Up!. The Honey Bee Bundle is one of the twenty new bundles in the January-June Mini Catalog. It's also one of those that I noticed right off the bat when I first thumbed through the catalog. It's a super cute Spring and Summer stamp set that will let you create great greeting cards that are oh so sweet. Here's a look at my project.
Tips & Tricks:
With the Honey Bee Stamp Set, you’ll make greeting cards that are oh, so sweet! Use the greetings in this set to convey your thoughts of friendship and support. This is a Distinktive** stamp set; it has a special texture that gives added depth and dimension in a single step, creating photo-realistic images. **Patent pendingI stamped the large bee all over the Real Red card base in matching Real Red ink to add a little pattern and texture to the card. I then used the Stitched Nested Label Dies to cut out the window on the card front. I then stamped and die cut the large bee and the smaller one in Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with my Crushed Curry Stampin' Write marker (from the Regal Marker Collection). Next I stamped the Bee Hive in Crushed Curry and cut everything out with the matching dies. I added them to the front of the card with a couple dimensionals.
For the inside of the card since you are able to see inside with the window I added a strip of the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper (which can only be earned for Free with a qualifying order during Saleabration) to the center of the inside of the card. I made sure that the designer series paper lined up with the points of the large stitched window. I then added a thin strip of whisper white with the sentiment stamped in Real Red ink in the center of the designer series paper. To finish off the card I added a few Red Rhinestones around the front of the card and on both sides of the sentiment.
