Honey Pot For my Honey

January 25, 2021

Hey everyone. I’m back with the cutest honey pot.  The Hero Arts Honey Pot Fancy Die is too cute!  Oh my goodness I can’t get enough of it. I paired it with the Bee and Flowers Bold Print background stamp.

Hero Arts Honey Pot

To make my honey pot look like honey, I die cut the Honey Pot Fancy Die with white paper. Pulling out a few colors of Copic markers I colored the lightest color towards the middle and used the dark colors to shade the pot. I did the same thing with the wand of the honey stick. (I can’t remember the name of this thing LOL)

Hero Arts Honey Pot

Topping off my honey pot with a cute red and white heart piece of designer paper. The hello was die cut from Artic Cardstock from Hero Arts. The hello is from the Bee The Queen stamp set. I also add crystal glaze to the pot along with a sprinkle of fine glitter. The background was stamped with Soft Granite ink.

Hero Arts Abstract Honeycomb

January 24, 2021

Hey everyone.  Welcome back. I’m playing with the Abstract Honeycomb Bold Print stamp from Hero Arts today. I love a great background stamp and this one is beautiful. Let’s see how this card came together.

I wanted the card to have texture so I decided not to have my inks blended perfectly.  Dabbing on some distress oxide inks in Candied Apple, Worn Lipstick and Seedless Preserves was the first task. I made sure to overlap each color just a little bit. I spritz the background stamp lightly with water and pressed it down on Dove White card stock.

 

Abstract Honeycomb

Setting this panel aside I stared to work on the sentiment.  I stamped a sentiment from the Bee and Flowers Wreathe stamp set in black ink and fussy cut it out with my scissors.  Next I used the Hexagon Infinity dies to make a gold frame for my sentiment. I decided to go with gold for a pop of shine.

Abstract Honeycomb

Going back to my colorful panel, I adhered it to a black piece of card stock and placed it on a side folding card also from Hero Arts. I popped up my sentiment on foam tape and placed the gold frame around it.

To bring in just a touch more of gold, I added on some gold baubles around the card. I had so much fun creating this card. I’m going to give it a go again in different colors. What colors would you like to see next for the Abstract Honeycomb stamp? Leave me a comment below and I’ll give it a try.  Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here again this week with more card inspiration.

Morning everyone. I’m sharing a sparkly card I m Morning everyone. I’m sharing a sparkly card I made using products from the @heroarts Unity Collection. 

This card is to remind my family and friends that they matter and are amazing human being. 

The Unity Collection is the perfect way to share cards with your friends that feel underrepresented! The core of this collection is just that. Share love and respect to people who may not look like you, think like you or embrace life like you. We all want to be seen and heard in this world. 

Also who won’t want a sparkly card to showcase in their space. And a rainbow at that!!

Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine c Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine cards. In today's tutorial I made a trio of valentine cards from one background. This was so easy and so much fun to make. Where are my Distress Oxide Spray lovers?

With three colors of @tim_holtz Distress Oxide Sprays these cards were created. I don't have all the sprays and are "collecting" them little by little. The fear of using these sprays have been unleashed. 😂😂😂 After watching more and more videos from Tim, my nervousness of "messing it up" has been replaced by "oh that's so pretty". 

By using just two die cuts from products from the January 2023 release from @heroarts

The link for the tutorial is in the bio and I hope I inspire you to start creating your Valentine's Day Cards.
