Creative Nugget: The background for this card was made using the Shadow Tiles Technique from the January Technique Junkies Newsletter. The beehive image from the Bee Happy stamp set was stamped and colored with Copic Markers, and the sentiment added before scoring the panel and adding the shadow on the tiles. Several bees were stamped and die cut using the Zinnia and Leaves Die. Piercing was added to represent the bee trail and some messy stitching adhered the front panel to a Pacific Point mat. The Spellbinder Timeless Rectangle Die peeks out from behind and was attached to a pretty piece of the Blooming Garden Paper Collection. All layers were mounted to a Pacific Point card base to finish the card.
My second card uses the Zinnia Stamp set along with the Honeycomb Mini and the Hummingbird.
Creative Nugget: A beautiful piece of designer paper from the Blooming Garden Paper Collection was stitched to a Vintage Cream card base. The second panel was made by clear embossing the Honeycomb Mini and sponging on some Ranger Distress inks. A Circle Nestie was cut from this panel making room for the Zinnia. The panel was then matted to a piece of Terra Cotta Tile and one of the Beautiful Border Dies attached. The large and small Zinnias were die cut, stamped, colored with Copic Markers, and layered using foam tape for dimension. Black micro beads were added to the center with Glossy Accents. The Hummingbird, leaves, sentiment tag, and seam binding finish the card. Wink of Stella Glitter Pens were used on the Hummingbird, but the photograph does not show the shimmer.
