The Bees Knees

Happy Leap Day!  Here's a special treat, two cards instead of one!  I used the "Honey Bee" set with the coordinating dies to make these cards.  I used the honeycomb cut out on the top one as a stencil and the words are from "Label Me Bold".   On the bottom one I used the Golden Honey DSP for the background and added some Crushed Curry Seam Binding under the hive.

Pink Tulips

These tulips were stamped with Melon Mambo ink from the "Timeless Tulips" set.  I punched them out with the coordinating Tulip Builder Punch.  I stamped the stems and leaves in Granny Apple Green and added the words from the same set. 

Timeless Tropical

I love this new set called "Timeless Tropical" and coordinating dies that feature this cute little pineapple.  I cut the base of the pineapple out of See a Silhouette DSP and sponged Crushed Curry ink on it.  I cut the leaves out of Pear Pizzazz card stock and also sponged that and added some spots.  I made the the piece behind it with Lovely Lipstick card stock and embossed it with the Coastal Weave Embossing Folder.  The background DSP is from the Tropical Oasis DSP collection.  I also cut out the "aloha", sponged that, and mounted it on a little rectangle I cut from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  Last, I added some Lovely Lipstick 1/8" ribbon. 

Birthday Dies

I stamped "Happy Birthday to You" in Memento Black and colored it in with Mint Macaron and Petal Pink Blends.  I cut it out with the new Birthday Dies and also cut out the sprigs and cake stand from the same set.  I added some Mint Macaron ribbon and layered it on a Petal Pink background I made with the Scripty Embossing Folder.  Last, I added some Basic Pearls. 

New Coordinating Items

This new die called Sending Flowers Dies makes the cutest little frame with flowers.  It coordinates with the "Sending You Thoughts" stamp set and also includes the banner frame.  I used the 6" x 6" DSP in Brights (Coastal Cabana on the top) and Subtles (Highland Heather on the bottom).  Check back on Saturday for more new coordinating items.

Three Tulips

These pretty tulips were stamped in Daffodil Delight and cut out with the Tulip Builder Punch.  I stamped the stems and leaves in Granny Apple Green and cut some leaves with the same punch.  I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies to make the frame and the words are from "Sending You Thoughts".  I made the background with some DSP from the Golden Honey collection.   

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Heart Day!

Thoughtful Blooms

These cute flowers were made with the "Thoughtful Blooms" set and coordinating Small Bloom Punch (both from Sale-a-Bration).  I stamped them in Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Melon Mambo, Pacific Point, and Call Me Clover.  The background paper is from the Golden Honey DSP and the "celebrate" is from "Happy Birthday to You".  

Glitter Bees

I stamped these bees from the "Honey Bee" set and cut them out with the coordinating Detailed Bee Dies.  I made the background with the Tin Tile Embossing Folder and some DSP from the Golden Honey collection.  I used an Aqua Painter to water color Crushed Curry ink on a piece of Shimmery White card stock and a honeycomb I also cut from the Detailed Bee Dies.   I added some Glittered Organdy Ribbon to give it some sparkle.

Valentines

I made these valentines with the Detailed Hearts Die.  So easy!  The words are from the Parisian Dies and I added some Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon.

Peaceful Poppies

This pretty DSP is from the Peaceful Poppies collection.  I used the die from "Painted Labels Dies" to make the swirly piece out of Vellum Card Stock.  Then I layered ribbons and Baker's Twine over the top and added words from "Painted Poppies".
