Sweet As Can Bee Card with Tina H

Hi there crafty friends, Tina here and as our garden is coming in full bloom it was great fun to make a card featuring the adorable Sweet As Can Bee stamp and die set. This set is just so cute and I love all the different images it contains for so many design options!

Having the beehive as a centrepiece, I opted for a white square card base. On top, I layered another white piece cut with the largest of the Scalloped Square 1 Small dies.
Before adhering, I created a focal point with the second largest of the Stitched Semi-Circle dies. To add a bit more detail to this piece, I used a stencil from my stash and some Distress Oxides in the shades of Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey to mimic the structure of a honeycomb.

I set this panel aside to let it dry while I worked on my images for this project. From the Sweet As Can Bee stamp I selected three sunflowers and bees, the beehive and some leaves. To anchor my design I went with the tree branch from the cute Love Birds set. I love a brown, yellow and purple combo so those where the Copic Markers I used today.

Before assembling the card, I placed all my elements inside the semi-circle to decide which sentiment I could use. Instead of adding a banner strip, I decided to stamp the phrase directly on my panel with Versafine Onyx Black ink. I also added a little bee trail for extra cuteness!

Now I was ready to build the scene, starting with the tree branch and leaves. Next I used some foam tape to add the beehive, bees and sunflowers. As always I added some bling for that extra detail (Pastel Jewels Mix).

This set is so cute and I am sure you will enjoy creating sweet cards with these images! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
