Bee-utiful

Hi!  I'm here with my card for the latest Freshly Made Sketch Challenge, where our hostess this week is Jacquie Southas.  Here's what I did with her sketch:


I ink-blended distress inks onto a white card base then die-cut the vertical panels out of a sheet of white cardstock.  Once that was done, I dry-embossed the panel and adhered it onto the card base with foam tape.

The sentiment is white-embossed on black and the bumble-bee was already stamped and coloured from a previous stamping session.




Thanks for visiting.  I hope you'll check out the wonderful cards by the rest of the design team.


Products used:

Stamps:  MMH Jan 2021 (Hero Arts)
Ink:  Versamark, Amalgam (Gina K)
Cardstock:  White, Black, X-Press It
Dies:  MMH Jan 2021 (Hero Arts), Blueprints 8 (MFT)
Accessories:  Honeycomb Frenzy EF (Sizzix)

Cheers
Karren
