Maymay Made It — Card Making

The Bee's Knees Stamp Set is perfect for creating cards for many different occasions. The fun and uplifting sentiments are sure to put a smile on someone's face. I decided to use the 2" scallop punch for the sentiment and the bee, adding another layer to the card.  The honeycomb stamp is a great way to create a bright and cheery background. I used Tombow Dual Brush Pens to create tiny red dots and circled them with a black gel pen to enhance the background. CLICK HERE to see the full tutorial. Here's what you'll need!

For this project, I decided to create a nighttime scene in a snowy forest. I used my blending tool and Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Blueprint Sketch) to transform white cardstock into a deep shade of blue. Both the Ginger Fred and Vinnie's Fav Stamp Sets were perfect for making my winter scene.

Creating this card was definitely outside of my comfort zone, but I absolutely loved learning something new. I used the eraser of a pencil to make the polka dot pattern. It looks great against the navy blue cardstock. I see why so many paper crafters love heat embossing.  I decided to emboss using VersaMark Ink, Nuvo Embossing Powder, and my heating tool.  Thanks to a few tips from my crafty friends I was able to create these lovely cards.  CLICK HERE for the tutorial!  ***Supplies Used*** VersaMark Ink  Nuvo Fine Detail Embossing Powder - Gold Thankful Grateful Blessed Stamp Set ...
