Honey Bee Punch Art

I love a good punch! It’s double fun when punch art can be created with parts of the image used not as intended. The Snowman Builder punch creates snowpeeps…

but it also creates honey bees!

The honey bee tag was part of my VLOG home decor project. See my blog post about that project here.

Here is a link to my Youtube video showing how to create this fun little tag, suitable for beekeepers like me or anyone that needs a cheerful paper crafting surprise in their mailbox. I have my tag hanging on my vision board.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop In Good Taste Designer Series Paper Spotlight

bloghopbannerapril2018-001

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of projects to share with you featuring our fabulous designer series paper. You may have arrived from Nancy’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

My sniblet bin calls me when I make a floral card in part because I have lots of sniblets from the In Good Taste paper package. The patterns from this pack pair well with any type of floral stamp you may have on your shelf.

The Hand Penned Petals Stamp set with the Penned Flowers dies makes creating a focal point easy. Add some 3D Loose Flower Flourishes for instant pop along with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder. Complete with a Flowers for Every Season ribbon and this card is ready for sharing!

Thanks for hopping with us each month. Now click on the next image to zoom to Tracy’s blog and see what fun project she designed.

The Way to Goat stamp set is too funny!

I used a mix of Blends pens and Stampin’ Up! markers to ink the goats to color coordinate with the Snail Mail designer series paper. Love the mushroom prints in this pack! Snuck in the Layering Circles dies in 5 sizes to add impact in a coordinating color scheme.
