The Rabbit Hole Designs: Bee Card

Hello my crafty friends. Welcome to today's The Rabbit Hole Designs blog. I love this fun little retro scene. These two best bee friends are engaged in conversation at their favorite hive hang out.

I am using the Peaceful Bee, the Sunny Days & Rainbows and the Blended Sentiments 2 stamp sets to create this best friends card! The new bees sets are illustrated by Agota Pop. I also used the retired Coffee Shop Background stamp.

I colored the images with OLO Markers. Be background is colored in retro pink, mint green, teal, and yellow colors.

Here are the colors for the bees:

N = C-G0, C-G3, and C-G7 for the bee stripes and head

O = Y1.2, Y2.0, andYO2.3 for the bee stripes and head

P = B2.0, R5.1, BV2.0 for the bee wings

Q = I colored the arms, legs and bee eyes a bit darker using a black finepoint pen

Hello crafty friends. I hope you are having a sunny day! This sweet bee is sliding in on a rainbow to say hello to to her friend. I created this un interactive card featuring The Rabbit Hole Designs Sunny Days and Rainbow stamp and coordinating die. This set is illustrated by the talented Agota Pop. I have paired it with the Taste Like Honey stencil and the Hello Scip[ty word with Shadow Layer die.

I stenciled the Taste Like Honey stencil in rainbow inks. I set aside this initial stenciled kraft paper to the side. I will use this background for another project. Placed the inked stencil, colorside up, on top a piece of 4" x 5 1/4 " white cardstock. I used a baby wipe to clean off the stencil, this will rub the ink off of the stencil and onto the paper through the stencil opening. The look is a bit subtle, but I think it will be great for this card.

I used three hexagon stacking dies from my stash to die cut shaker window on a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" yellow cardstock. I attached a piece of acetate to the backside of the hex panel to create the window.

I created the shaker windows by framing the back side of the card front with double-sided adhesive foam tape around the hex window opening. I added sequin and shaker pieces to the window wells and added the Taste Like Honey stenciled background facing the window to seal in the shakre bits.

The images are stamped on to Sweet Sentiment Coloring Cardstock and colored with OLO markers and die cut with the coordinating dies. I die cut the Hello Scripty Word from yellow cardstock and the Hello Shadow Layer from vellum.

Here is the completed shaker card with all the images and elements added to the card front. I mounted it to an A2 dark yellow card base.
