Hello everyone! Today is Melissa's (owner of Honey Bee Stamps) birthday and to celebrate she has a gift for you! Today and tomorrow if you place an order of $36 or more at Honey Bee Stamps you'll receive the Celebration Box stamp set for FREE with the code HBD36
I used that set to make this card:
I created several masks for the balloons and stamped a bunch of them onto some Bristol Smooth card stock with Hero Arts Intense Black ink. I then used Distress Inks to watercolor everything in.
After I was done all the watercoloring I used my heat tool to dry everything, then sprayed it with shimmer spray. I showed in this video how I mixed Tonic's Nuvo Platinum Embellishment Mousse in one of their spray bottles to make a shimmer spray. It gives a subtle result but in real life the shimmer is SO pretty.
I also added a TON of Honey Bee's Unicorn Rhinestones - once I started putting them on my card I couldn't stop LOL! I used Honey Bee's Hooray die for my sentiment, cutting it from SSS's White Glitter card stock and black card stock.
I kept the inside of the card simple and stamped sentiments from the Honey Bee Hooray stamp set with black ink and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
Don't forget I have a Honey Bee Stamps gift certificate giveaway going on still in THIS POST <------click!
