Hello crafty friends! Today I'm sharing my card that features Honey Bee Stamps new Lovely Layers: Tack Honey Cuts along with a new stencil set. Read on for all of the details!
I started by die cutting the dies in the Lovely Layers: Tack from white and teal cardstocks. I used a few Copic markers to color the white cardstock. See how I managed to keep the debossed areas of the die cuts white? To do that, I laid the nib of the marker almost flat and lightly colored over those areas. I was very happy it worked out!!
I used glue to adhere all of the Lovely Layers: Tack pieces together. Be sure to refer to the handy layering guide while you assemble the saddle!
Next I created the background layer with the Range Scene stencil set. I used blending brushes and Distress Inks on an A2 white cardstock panel. The colors I used are Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness, Lost Shadow, and Tumbled Glass. NOTE: I intentionally did not stencil the fence post section.
The idea in my head was to have the saddle hanging over a fence. So I die cut white cardstock with the Lovely Layers: Barn Wood Fence dies. Then I used my scissors to trim off the top picket sections even with the top rail. Then I colored it with a blender brush and Walnut Stain Distress Ink.
I glued the rails onto the fence, added foam tape to the back, and then adhered it to the card with a portion of the bottom of the fence hanging off. I just used my scissors to trim it even with the bottom of the card.
The sentiment stamped in black pigment ink is from the Saddle Up stamp set. I cut it out with the coordinating die and popped it up on the card with foam strips.
I blinged out the saddle with some pretty coordinating gems I found in the Vitamin Sea Gem Sticker set.
I love it when I have an idea for a card actually turns out to be like I wanted! I hope I've given you some inspiration too! Thanks so very much for stopping by!!!
