Thought I'd actually do a little blog post for this Honey Bee Stamps card I've posted on Instagram today! I want to share a tip that will make creating with little die cuts like this a bit easier!
I'm sure those of you reading this know about the trick to use Press N Seal to press down onto your arranged pieces. Well, these pieces are pretty small and there's quite a few of them to arrange. They kept slipping and sliding when I was playing with ideas. I finally thought to lay the Press N Seal sticky side up and stick my pieces in various places till I was happy with the arrangement. (You can see how I taped the Press N Seal down so it wouldn't move.) I then took a photo with my phone and referred to it when actually gluing them to the card panel! This made it so much easier!
I used a stylus and a foam pad to shape the flowers and leaves for dimension. I really love taking just plain white card stock and creating something bright and cheerful like this!
If you actually are reading here at the end, I thank you very much! Have a wonderful day!
