Pink & Main 5th Birthday Hop


Good morning! I'm excited to be celebrating Pink & Main's 5th birthday by being part of a celebratory blog hop! See all the blog hop info with links and prize details below!



I made two 'bee-day' cards for the hop.

For the first card, I stamped and masked all 3 of these bees - I couldn't choose just one of these cuties! I kept my colour scheme simple because the scene was already  quite busy, and I wanted some focus for the sentiment.

I used the Happy Birthday die but I trimmed the birthday, to make B day. And then I coloured the letters yellow with Copic markers, and then added a bee-like stripe. After they were glued down, I put Stickles on the letters and on the wings, for some sparkle.


For my second card, I coloured and die cut the hive and then die cut a bunch of the tiny bees. To keep this card more clean and simple, I blended a strip of blue sky but left the rest of the panel white.

BLOG HOP INFO:

There will be FIVE randomly-chosen winners of $50 store credit each.

The winners will be chosen from comments left on posts of the blogs linked below. To qualify, you must comment on all the blogs in the hop.

    That is a super bee-utiful idea to make the words in bee colors! It really makes the card pop! Wonderful color palette and I like how sparkly you made the Happy Bday! I like the ombre background too; makes the bees look even cuter!
