Hi all Marion here and welcome to my creations for the hop ...........


When you have beautiful products to work with, you can't class it as a 'job' Ours aside, Honey Bee Stamps and dies are just stunning and such a wonderful quality !!

Why not join along and make this card for that special friend.
5" x 5" folded card
4.75" card front, using the Double Stitched Heart Dies from Pink and Main cut out a heart just off to the right. The fab thing about these dies is the stick goes on the piece thats cut and the aperture !!!
 Using the die cut piece, draw around with a pencil to get your heart shape, this is your guide for stamping the leaves in
 Fill the heart up with leaves alternating the colours. I used WOW! Kiwi Krush, Goose and Avocado.
Using foam pads adhere the aperture to the card base.
Stamp and emboss three flowers from the Spring Blossom stamp set with WOW! Cloud 9, then die cut them. I used the Spring Blossom Stamps https://shop.honeybeestamps.com/spring-blossoms-stamp/and Dies https://shop.honeybeestamps.com/springblossoms-honey-cuts-steel-dies/
 Adhere to card front coming off the heart aperture, I used Pinflair glue as this gives you dimension and allows you to stick some stamens in and around the flowers. stamp the word Sweet Friend from the WOW! Just Saying Stamp Set on a piece of card stock and adhere to the card front.
 You should give this fabulous Company a try, you won't be disappointed !!!
I couldn't stop there, in fact if I had more time I'd have done loads, but rest assured this won't be the last time you see these stamps and dies…. Here's another quick card..
 Cover your card panel (this can be done in any size) in various colour inks. I used the Catherine Pooler Inks, they're so vibrant, juicy and just, well, lovely !!!
 Make sure you cover all the white card stock, heat set it so it's completely dry.
 Using the Honey Bee Spring Blossom Stamps, stamp and emboss randomly using WOW! Clear Embossing Powder.
 Taking Versafine Onyx Black ink all over, covering everything. Then wipe away with kitchen roll to reveal the colourful flowers underneath. Using the Pink and Main Double Stitched Dies, cut a small heart out of the panel. Mount onto folded card base, stamp a sentiment and adhere across the heart.



Hugs Marion xx

    How exciting! Would be thrilled to have some new, different powders. These dies & stamps are super too. Both cards are FAB. First in a delicate vibe, second is all drama & lushness (must try this technique). Great to see you, Marion, shows that I'm extremely out of touch. Tyfs!🌼

    Hi Marion, your cards are gorgeous! I absolutely adore Honey Bee stamps and dies and you are right, you won't be disappointed! They are fantastic and the quality is top notch! With that said, some of my first EP's were WOW brand I have to say they are STILL my faves. I only have the basic colours (black, white, silver,gold, etc.) but I think I need to up my game after seeing Cloud 9, Fool's Gold, etc.
    I definitely learned a lot on this fun hop and hope to see WOW & Honey Bee collaborate again soon!
    Thanks for the chance to win!
