Bumblebee

Tuesday, June 2, 2020

Today's card features one of the five new Stampin' Up! In Colors, Bumblebee.


Instructions for today's card:
  • Start with a card base of Bumblebee cardstock cut at 5-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4". A Studio 1.15 tip: I always take an 8-1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock and score it at 4-1/4" and cut it at 5-1/2". This way I have two card bases ready to go. 

  • Using the Ornate Layers dies cut a piece of Bumblebee DSP and a piece of Whisper White cardstock in your die cutting machine. You can use the dies I chose or your choice from these awesome dies!

  • Stamp the sentiment from the Lovely You stamp set. On the back of the Whisper White cardstock add a bit of adhesive on the upper middle portion. I took black metallic thread and made three loops around three of my fingers and then stuck them on the adhesive. This has become a bit of a signature element for me. Sadly, SU! will not be carrying any metallic thread in the new '20-'21 catalog. You can use baker's twine or the linen thread also. 

  • Adhere the DSP with Tombow liquid glue to your card base.

  • Adhere your sentiment with Stampin' Dimensionals to the DSP.

  • Using the Bumblebee 1/4" Gingham ribbon make a bow and adhere it to the Whisper White piece using a glue dot.

  • Add an Enamel Dot in Bumblee to the "i" in Friend.

Blessings,
Tracy
