Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans. Have you gotten your tree up yet? Shopping done? I’m doing all my Christmas cookie baking this weekend. I started Thursday and should be finished up by today. Tomorrow will be finishing touches and putting all my trays together that I hand out.

For today’s card we did a Mystery Stamping at our team meeting this past Tuesday night. It was a lot of fun. Jaimie gave us measurements and told us what to do putting the card together. I got my right and left a little mixed up, but I’m still happy with the results. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home Bundle along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by embossing a Pale Papaya card front using the new Hive 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the card front to a Pale Papaya card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered 2 panels of the Heart & Home DSP to the card front. I cut a strip of the Heart & Home DSP into a banner and adhered it to the left side of the card front. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the foxglove floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Honeybee Home Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it in using my Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker. I cut the image our using the Honeybee Blooms Dies. Using the same dies, I also cut out the floral and leaf images from panels of Cinnamon Cider and Garden Green cardstock.

I arranged the die cut pieces the way I wanted them and adhered them to the card front. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink and cut it our using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered a piece of the Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the card front and adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pale Papaya Genial Gems to the sentiment and added a Bumblebee Trinket to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Honeybee Home stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Pale Papaya mat and then to the inside of the Pale Papaya card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the foxglove image from the Honeybee Home stamp set on the envelope front and colored it in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card. The items I used will all be available starting January4, 2022. I just love this DSP with this bundle. Happy Stamping!!
