Honeycomb Happiness- Hello, Sweet Friend

Hi Friends!

I hope all of you are having a great week so far!  Today, I wanted to play along with the new stamp set from the Sale-A-Bration catalog, Honeycomb Happiness (I just love this cute little chick image :-)).

I decided to use the Sugar Pea Designs Sugar Sketch SPDSS35 along with the Simon Monday“Something New” Challenge (this set is brand new).

Again, if you have not visited the above challenge sites yet, I hope you will find time to do so- terrific Design Team designs and as well as their galleries!!

To create this card:

Ink the chick image from Honeycomb Happiness with Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and stamp onto Whisper White cardstock.

Color the image with Stampin’ Write Markers- Daffodil Delight, Delightful Dijon and Pumpkin Pie (using a AquaPainter™ to blend).

Carefully cut out the bird image and set aside.

Create the tag element with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch from Whisper White cardstock and cover with retired Sweet Shoppe and I Am Me Designer Series Paper (DSP) with Real Red scraps for layering.

Add the ¼ White Tea Lace Doily along with Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Island Indigo Ribbon and Rhinestones.

Layer the retired Sweet Shoppe DSP onto Real Red cardstock (rounding the corners of each with the Envelope Punch Board), layering again onto Pool Party cardstock and finally onto Real Red cardstock.

Mount the layered background panel onto the Whisper White card base and add the Island Indigo strip per the sketch.

Heat emboss the sentiment from Six-Sided Sampler using Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder onto Real Red cardstock and punch out with the Sweetheart Punch.

Add the sentiment to the lower part of the tag and mount the tag onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

Add the chick image with Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish off the card.
