Black Copic Marker | Honey Bee Stamps

An easy cheat for a card that pops is using a black copic marker. You can ink blend however you want and it doesn’t even have to be smooth! You stamp your images on top and color the rest in black!

Subtle Coloring | Honey Bee Stamps

I’ve been loving pulling older sets and matching it with new ones. The Sweet Spring Mice is a favorite and I definitely wanted to use it with this Friendship Frame stamp set. It was the perfect frame that works as a background so the focal image would fit snugly in the middle. I used one copic marker to add a bit of shading to the Friendship Frame stamp and it worked so well!

Adding Texture | Honey Bee Stamps

A simple trick to elevating your card is to use an embossing folder to add texture to your background. I didn’t want it to overtake the card since my focal image leaves a bit of blank space so I used additional color blocking to fill up the card in a subtle way.

Distress Oxide on Kraft | Honey Bee Stamps

I needed a really simple card and watermark ink is one of those sneaky inks that can be used for multiple things. I could have embossed but I wanted a super subtle pattern and when you ink blend distress oxides over it, it still peeks through — isn’t that cool!?

Colorful Elements | Honey Bee Stamps

I always want to add color to my cards and whenever I get a chance, I’m going to do it. I wanted a variety of color among these lure dies. Even though there are layers, I kept with my color combos to make it cohesive but honestly, you can pick contrasting colors as well. You just can’t go wrong here!

I love my scene cards and as you know, they do take a bit of time. Imagine my surprise when I opened this new paper pad from Honey Bee Stamps… it has a ton of pieces that are perfect for a quick and easy background. It’s usually not my kinda thing but I just couldn’t resist. Plus they make for such a quick card once you stamp and die cut out your images. So fun!

Embossed Ink Blending | Honey Bee Stamps

Is there a crafty technique that you’ve avoided? For me, it’s been 3D embossing folders — but not anymore! I just never took the time to figure out how they worked and I couldn’t ever remember the sandwich combination for them. I also really like coloring and usually with the folders, you just don’t need to. I had to bring my own flair to it and used rainbow colors to create this pretty simple card! Check out how it came together below!
