Today's post is part of a YouTube hop to celebrate Honey Bee Stamps' Holiday Cheer release (that you can check out HERE <------click! I'll have a Release & Review video for it coming next week!). You can start on the Honey Bee Stamps YouTube channel HERE.
OK here are the cards I made:
These are 3.5" by 8.5" slimline cards.
Apologies for the not-so-great pics. My camera was going haywire over the foil accents in the card stock and the reflection was making it difficult to get pics of! I couldn't resist using the card stock though - it's GORGEOUS (and I showed it in depth in the Tonic Rustic Rose Haul I posted the other day HERE).
To start off with I used the new Lovely Layers: Pinecone Honey Cuts Dies to create the pinecones, bows and pine branches. The pine cone layers I due cut from watercolor paper and then watercolored with the Prima Woodlands watercolor palette, and then splattered them with Picket Fence Distress Paint.
I die cut the pink papers from this pack for the bows and for the Merry Buzzword Die set. To complete the sentiment I heat embossed phrases from the Merry Buzzword stamp set using Pearled Pistachio embossing powder.
The background was die cut from Tonic's Rose Gold Blossom Kraft card stock using Honey Bee's Mistletoe Slimline Coverplate Die - then adhered to Kraft card bases.
On the insides of the card I heat embossed more sentiments from the Merry Buzzword stamp set with the Pearled Pistachio embossing powder and that was it!
