Well hello there, thank you for visiting my blog today where I'm sharing a new card made purely for the love of the craft and featuring 100% Lawn Fawn products. Please be aware that the bee keeper was from a free with purchase stamp set called 'You're A Keeper' and now sold out and the patterned background paper was one of three pieces of patterned paper included free with my order from Lawn Fawn a couple of months ago. The list below therefore doesn't include these two items:-
First of all I prepped an A2 panel using the patterned paper. I die cut the frame and added with foam tape then I layered two grassy borders created using the Grassy Border Die and which I ink blended with Scattered Straw Distress Oxide Ink and splattered with white acrylic paint loosened with a drop or two of water. First grassy border at the back was adhered directly but no glue near the top so that I could lift it a little and tuck images behind and the smaller layer was popped up on dimensional tape but again the strip of tape was right at the bottom to allow tucking.
I stamped the images I'd be needing from You're A Keeper and Hive Five and coloured with the following Copic markers:-
Bear - T5, T5, T4, T3, T2, T1, E31, R22, R20, R00,
Hive - E44, E43, E42, Y28, Y26, YR31, Y21
Flowers - B12, B41, Y28, Y26, YR31, Y21, YG45, G12
Honeypot - B12, B41, Y28, Y26, YR31, Y21, C3, C1, C00
Bees - E00 Y26, Y21, BG000
Points were highlighted with a white gel pen and Hive Five images die cut using the Lawn Cuts and the You're A Keeper images were fussy cut. I applied the images to the scene using dimensional foam tape.
Sentiment came last (but not least). I used Henry's ABC's to die cut the letters for HONEY twice over and glued them together then aligned and glued them to the background. I used Copic markers to make a honey coloured fade on the lettering and then used Nuvo Crystal Glaze to gloss it up. Lastly, I stamped 'You're A Keeper' on a sentiment strip and adhered with foam tape.
Had so much fun with this card and Lawn Fawn's lovely products and can't wait to play again!
