Hello everyone,
I'm back with tag #2 for Tag Tuesday and the theme "Bees"...
This gorgeous stamp was so much fun to play with, I have used it before but differently and used it for todays project as It should be..
Stamped all the extra Bees...
And used the matching dies to cut them all out..
Made a water coloured background...
Added honeycomb die cuts and added some splatters..
Plumped up my Bees after colouring with glossy accents..
I fussycut the bee hive and glued it down..
And added this stuff, it was off a tree, real paper bark, insect free and given to me by my hoarder friend I used to look after, well, I still do, but as a friend not employee..
Started gluing down the Bee's...
and then added a lot more of the negatives from the honey comb, and inked around the edges with Vintage Photo distress ink..
Cut out vine like leaves and added ribbons...
A close up of Bee's and honey comb die cuts, these ones were cut from different card stock which I had used oxide sprays on and stuffed messed it up..
Finished tag..
I really liked both my tags this time, enjoyed playing with this stamp set too..
So thanks so much for stopping by...see you soon..
Luv CHRISSYxx
