Fall is Proof That Change is Beautiful – Honey Bee

Hello, crafty friends!! I hope you’re week is going well!!

By now, you know that I absolutely love all of the Lovely Layers Honey Cuts from Honey Bee Stamps!! The Lovely Layers: Fall Foliage Dies are no exception!! I had so much fun mixing colors on the various foliage!!

I began by die-cutting all of the foilage in the Lovely Layers: Fall Foliage and the Rattan Basket Honey Cuts from watercolor paper. I watercolored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and set them aside to dry.

For the background, I die-cut a panel of white cardstock with the second largest die in the Sweet Stacks: Rectangle Die Set and embossed it with the Fanciful A2 Hot Foil Plate. It was adhered to a white A2 card base with Bee Creative Glue. The sentiment, from the Fall For You Stamp Set, was stamped onto black cardstock with Bee Creative Embossing Ink, heat embossed with white embossing powder and cut out with the Coordinating Die.

I blended some gold rub-on cream (found in my stash from ages ago) with my fingertip to all of the foliage die-cuts and basket. This really added alot of texture and shine to the embossed lines on the die-cuts!! I arranged the bouquet, adhered it to the back of the basket with Bee Creative Glue, then popped the whole thing up with foam tape. The sentiment and leaf on the bottom were adhered with a combination of Bee Creative Glue and foam adhesive. A few pearls from the Autumn Pearls Sticker Pack were the perfect finishing touch!!

I just love all of the texture on this card!!

Thanks so much for hanging out with me for a bit today!! Have a great Tuesday and I’ll see you soon!!
