Queen Bee

Hi again,

The Queen Bee bundle (#160485) consists of the Queen Bee stamp set (#160476) and the Queen Bee Dies (#160484).

The bee was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) onto So Saffron card (#108611). This was heat embossed with Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set with the Heat Tool (#129056) then cut with the co-ordinating die. Happy Birthday was also embossed with Black Powder on Very Vanilla card (#106550). I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820) to cut the sentiment.

I stamped 2 corners of the Very Vanilla card front with an image from the Decorative Borders stamp set (#160513) using So Saffron ink (#147109). The “words” & splatters are from the Queen Bee stamp set. I stamped the words with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) and the splatters with Sahara Sand ink (#147117) which I stamped off for a lighter image. 

The bee and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I cut the “honeycomb” with a die from the Queen Bee dies using So Saffron card (#108611) backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). These adhesive sheets make it so much easier to attach detailed pieces to the card. I added some of the small pieces from the “honeycomb” (which would normally be thrown away) for the embellishments. I used the Clear Wink of Stella (#141897) on the honeycomb & “embellishments”.

The card front was matted with Basic Black card (#121688) and So Saffron card, then attached to the Very Vanilla base card.
