stamp review crew: honey bee

Hello friends! I am excited to be hopping once again with the Stamp Review Crew. If you are not familiar with The Stamp Review Crew, we are a group of international Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators who hop together on the first and third Monday of the month to bring you some great inspiration. Each blog hop features a different stamp set. You can find all of the blog hops archived on the Stamp Review Crew blog. Today we are shining a spotlight on the Honey Bee stamp set.

This stamp set is so much fun to work with. For my first card, I was inspired by one of my favorite Disney characters with a love for Hunny – Winnie the Pooh! I was thinking about the scene where he gets stuck in the honey tree and honey is dripping all around him.

I created a Crushed Curry watercolor wash to try to create a similar look.

I added a couple of bees, some Golden Honey DSP and some die cut honey comb for added texture.

My second project continues the dripping honey theme.

This time I added the panel to a card base embossed with the Corrugated 3D emboss folder.

I think that Silly Ol’ Bear would approve, don’t you? Time for you to continue your way to more creative inspiration through the blog hop. From here you can head over to Linda by clicking the NEXT button below or you can go back to Holly by clicking the PREVIOUS button

Hello 2020, I’m ready to kick off another decade of shining a spotlight on creativity! Did you make any New year’s resolutions? I usually don’t, but this year I mad a resolution to actually SEND the cards that I make. So, I’m joining the #mailitmonday movement and plan to send out at least 3 cards every Monday. Let’s see if I can do it!

January also brings the start of a NEW Stampin’ up! mini catalog and Sale-a-Bration! So many fun new products to spotlight. Today’s card combines some fun products from the mini catalog my favorite item from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. Check it out –

The beautiful black and white paper is from the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper in the Sale-a-Bration brochure. My FAVE of the SAB choices this year. The sentiment is from another Sale-a-Bration choice, the Sending You Thoughts stamp set. From the Mini Catalog we have the Stitched So Sweetly dies (I am a sucker for the stitching look) and Detailed Bees dies. The bee is cut out of Gold Foil and looks so striking up close.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you will join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!
