Hello sweet bee - a card by Riikka Kovasin

Hello! It's Riikka here again with another post! Totally different style card this time, but there is one common factor in them - the foils! Where as I made some really grungy cards in my previous post, in the beginning of the month, this time I made something as sweet as honey!

This card had it's inspiration in the spring and sun. I wanted to create a cheerful card with sunshine. For the sun part I created a big golden disc using golden Fab Foil. As the foil sticks to anything, well, sticky, I used double sided adhesive sheet this time. I added the sheet on top of some cardstock and then used a circular die to cut a "sun" out of it and then foiled it with gold.

To further have that sweet feeling, I used honey tones in the background. I embossed a honey comb styled pattern to the background using "Honey" powder and then added some watercolors in honey shades on top. I also chose to mount the card on top of orange cardstock and have that line the greeting as well. If you want to see how I created the card, please see the video below!
