Honey Bee Stamps Spring Release Blog Hop--Day 2

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of the Honey Bee Stamps Spring Release Blog Hop!   The complete list of today's hop, with links, for Day 2 is at the end of my post.

Have you been wow'ed as much as I am by all of the wonderful new stamps and dies from Honey Bee Stamps?!!  I have had so much fun creating cards using some of them!

For my card today I used the oh so adorable Heaven Sent stamps and Honey Cuts.

To create the background for this card I stamped the moon and stars in Versamark and heat embossed everything with white embossing powder.  I created a mask for the moon, covered it and then inked up the background with Faded Jeans and Black Soot Distress Ink.  (Be sure to use a clean towel to wipe off the excess ink from the stars.)  During my inking, I made sure to leave a "glow" around the moon--I love how that turned out!  I then stamped the sentiment in Versamark and embossed it too.

This bunny is SO adorable!!  He, and the accessories, were stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.  I then re-stamped the bunny onto the blue gingham paper and fussy cut just the pajamas.  After some quick and easy coloring of the bunny with my alcohol markers, I glued the gingham pj's onto the body.  I added some sparkly Nuvo drops to the stars and white gel pen dots for smaller stars to add dimension.

Here's a little peek at the sentiment inside.  I really love the fonts of these sentiments!!

I hope you are inspired by my card and have enjoyed taking a look!  Keep on hopping to see even more awesome creations!  The next stop on the hop is the amazing and talented Emily!
