Hello!!
I'm up on the Honey Bee Stamps Blog today with a Sweet Embossed Card!! I wanted to use the New Hello Gorgeous Stamp Set along with the New Large Thanks Stamp!!

SWOON two of my FAVORITES and they pair together so GREAT!! I've also used some of the BEAUTIFUL Autumn Sunset Sequin Mix and some of the Golden Sun Drops!! What is a Card without some SPARKLE!!??  =)  I started by Stamping and Embossing the Floral Image Frame and then I Stamped and Embossed the Large Thanks Sentiment using some WoW Glitter Embossing Powder!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE how BEAUTIFUL this is in real life and using it as a Focal with the BEAUTIFUL Font of this Large Thanks Stamp just REALLY makes it POP off the Card!! I added some Gold Sequins and then added some of the Golden Sun Drops using Bling Glue Dots to adhere them to finish off the Design!!
                           

SQUEAL!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way this turned out and I hope it INSPIRES you to try some Embossing on your Next Card!! If you do I hope you share your creation with us as we LOVE to see what you create!!

Today we are showcasing the New "Fireside Friends" Stamp Set and the "Sweater Weather" Stamp Set + coordinating "Sweater Weather" Die Set!! Here's a look at the Sets in ALL of their Glory!!




See I Told you AWESOME New Set right!!?? I've made two Cards for Today!! First I started by Stamping and Embossing the Fireside Friends Image onto some Distress Watercolor Paper and then I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to Watercolor the Image!! I added some Grey for s shadow and then Die Cut a Stitched Circle to Die Cut a Frame for the Image!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment and then added a Heart!! I wanted some of the Images to POP so I added some Nuvo Morning Dew Drops for some Shine and Dimension!! I really helps to make the Fire and the Heart come off the Card!!

 My Next Card is a FUN Interactive Card!! I added a FUN Tag that can be opened up to reveal the Sweet Image inside!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it turned out!! I Started by Die Cutting the Mama Elephant Gift Tag from both Kraft and Distress Watercolor Paper adding the Open Frame to just the Kraft Tag!! I then Stamped and Embossed the Images onto both of the Tags!! I used my Stabilo Water Based Markers to color the Image an then I added some Water to Watercolor them!! I LOVE how BRIGHT they are on the Kraft Cardstock!! I then took the Newton's Nook Designs Pines and Holly Die Set and Die Cut the Images from some Reverse Confetti Cardstock!! Then I added some Burlap Twine and a Mini Jingle Bell!! I Die Cut the Card Base from a Paper Trey Ink Die from some MFT Plaid Cardstock and think it finished off the Card perfectly!!
