Honey Bee Party Time

Hi all and welcome to another week of the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

This week's challenge theme is Party Time

This post comes the day after my birthday so I wanted to make myself a birthday card. Sounds a little silly but I wanted to make a card with a little bit of spring. I know we are just getting into the winter so a few flowers can lift my spirits! I hope you enjoy it too!

I made this A2 size card base from smooth white cardstock. Using watercolor paper I made a plaid background with water and distress ink. It was very easy. I just used a paint brush and painted lines diagonally. 

After the watercolored plaid background was dry, I trimmed down the panel to leave a bit of a border and adhered it to the card base. I then die cut the Honey Bee scalloped stitched rectangle die from white cardstock and adhered it to the center of the card base. I then die cut flowers, leaves and stems using colored cardstock and a flower die from my stash.

I popped up the flowers with 3d foam squares and glued the leaves and stamp to the scalloped panel. I die cut the Congrats from gold matte cardstock. The sub-sentiment was stamped on to a strip of cardstock and adhered above Congrats.

I hope you have enjoyed the project I shared and got some inspiration! I have listed and linked all the products I used for your convenience. Thank you so much for stopping by!!
