Cute as a Bee

Posted on | August 28, 2010 | 11 Comments |

It’s a weekend again, YEA!!!!!! We’re not sure what we’ll be doing but for sure I have a little card created using this week’s new sketch from Waltzingmouse aka the Mischief Makers, sketch #12. It’s a bit busy BUT, wouldn’t a little four-yr-old love this little number?

Here’s a close-up of the card:

I used Tim Holtz embossing folder again. I really LOVE!! Then I tied two seam bindings together into a pretty bow. These seam binding were normal ones that I scrunched up. My camcorder is in the mail somewhere. After I get it I’ll share with you how I scrunch up my seam bindings.

I pretty much just layered a bunch of different pieces. Trimmed out the butterfly and bees, added some ink splattering, and little fun pieces here and there. I colored too with Copic markers… I know, it’s not impressive being able to color little bits of yellow on some bees with $6/ea markers. I should just use Crayola markers with my coloring talent, huh? {::SMILES}.

Do check out to see what the other DTs made, so so awesome this week… better than last (if that’s even possible).

Materials:

Carstock: Clear and Simple
Designer Paper: digital paper from Sweet Shoppe Designs by Zoe Pearns: Note to Self
Stamps: Waltzingmouse L’il Buddies and Very Vintage Labels #10
Accessories: Seam binding from Etsy, button from a Scarlet Lime kit, American Craft chipboard and alpha, K&Co rhinestone, and pom-poms from a craft shop
Tools: Nestabilities tag die #10, Sizzix, large corner rounder, border punch
