Our Hearts Our Prayers Our Love

Hidy Ho Teaspoon Fans,

Today Teaspoon of Fun is bringing you another card using our Honeycomb Fancy Die.  My daughter is now raising bees so I got out one of my favorite cards.  I just love honey so I can’t wait until it’s ready to harvest!

Head on over to Teaspoon of Fun for all your paper crafting needs

and share this site with your friends!

Let’s take a look at what I picked for you today…

Precision Glue Press

STAMPWHEEL

Bees and Flowers Fancy Die

Honeycomb Fancy Die

Friend Greetings

Black Hybrid Ink

Copic Markers

  Colors I used:

Flowers:  E37, Y35, YR04, YG17, YG63, G99

Bee:  Y23, Y15, C3

Crease Tool

Jewel Picker

Retractable Pick

Fine Tip Tweezers

White Foam Strips

White Crafty Foam Tape

Deluxe Adhesive

EZ Grand Tape Runner

A2 White Envelopes

A2 Cream Envelopes

Let’s work on the background first.  Tape your Watercolor Paper down to the Make Art Stay-tion using our Sticky Note Tape Roll.  Saturate your paper with water from your Silicone Dispenser using your 1″ square brush.  Now fill the wells of your Flower Palette  or  Paw Palette with water and add drops of the Distress Oxide Reinkers.   The amount of drops will be led by how intense you want the color to be.  Just lay the colors on and watch them spider out.  Set this aside to dry and we’ll work on the top layer next leaving it taped onto your Make Art Stay-tion.  If you need to dry it faster, use your heat tool to dry it.    

Watercolor Paper

Sticky Note Tape Roll

Make Art Stay-tion

1″ square brush

Distress Oxide Reinkers

I used:  Prize Ribbon and Squeezed Lemonade

Flower Palette  or  Paw Palette

Silicone Dispenser

You will want to cut out the Honeycomb Fancy Die first.  Then using the Blending Brush  and working  from the center outward, burnish in the Distress Oxide Ink Pads  colors.  I started with the lightest yellow and finished off with the darkest brown (colors are below).  When you are done, use your #6 brush and tap water drops onto this layer.  This will react with the Distressed Oxide colors leaving some “water” drops.  Set this layer aside.

Blending Brush

Distress Oxide Ink Pads

Colors I used: 

Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain

#6 Brush

Next cut out your bees and flowers from the Bees and Flowers Fancy Die.  Color with Copic Markers .  Pop up this layer with our Crafty Foam Tape and our 3D Foam Strips.  Use your Crease Tool to smooth the layer down.  Then I added the Friend Greeting for the sentiment using our STAMPWHEEL  and Black Hybrid Ink.

Add your card to one of our A2 White or A2 Cream Envelopes and mail it off to your dear friend.
