Hey everyone!! It's been a minute (AKA like a week lol) since I last posted/uploaded. Lots going on, also a LOT of construction (and they like playing music which means I can't do voiceovers b/c if any of that picks up in my videos I lose all revenue from the YouTube ads - it's a pain but with 5 kids I optimize videos as much as possible!). Anywho I'm hoping to get back to posting more ASAP!!
That said - Honey Bee had an AMAZING holiday release - you can check it out HERE <-------click!
I'll be doing a Release & Review video on it - just waiting for all the noise to stop lol!!
However I did get a chance to make and film these cards using one of the new paper packs and the previously released House Builder Honey Cuts dies - which if you missed my Halloween version of those you can find that HERE.
So Honey Bee released the new Home Essentials patterned paper pack. These papers were designed to go with Honey Bee's House Builder Honey Cuts dies and are different from Honey Bee's other patterned paper packs in that they have a satin finish and more realistic look to them.
I die cut the Home Essentials patterned papers as well as various card stock with the House Builder Honey Cuts dies and assembled just the "front" of each house. There is a hinge wafer die in the set that enables you to make a house-shaped card from it but I had other plans.
I created 2 easel cards from A2 card bases and adhered each house to the base and added more of the Home Essentials patterned papers to the "inside" of the card which finish off the scene when the cards are propped open.
Aren't these FUN?!?! The new patterned papers give a totally different look to the die cuts - I only made these two cards but I could have made sooooo many more.
To see how these cards came together check out my video below:
