Queen Bee – Thanks For Being You

Another Design Team card.  This time for Facebook Case-ing Tuesday (#464).  The card we are case-ing can be found on page 119 of the Annual Catalog. 

I selected the Just Us Girls (#730) Colors and chose the On-Line Exclusive Queen Bee stamp set for both Critter Crazy (#87) and Farm Quest (#53) and sharing with Ellibelle’s Crafty Wednesday (June/July) Anything Goes.

Here is the result:

Steps:

• Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Basic White cardstock.
• Background Accent Block: (3¾” x 4”) Coastal Cabana Dashed patterned piece of paper from the now retired 2023/2024 Brights Collection Designer Series Paper pack.
  • The edges were torn and distressed.
• Accent Block: (3½” x 3½”) Bubble Bath Ombre patterned piece of paper from the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper pack.
  • The Type image stamp set was randomly stamped with both 2^nd (stamped off once) and 3^rd (stamped off twice) Generation Basic Gray ink.
  • The Block was crumpled.
• Shape – Circle: (3½” x 3½”) Basic White cardstock die-cut with the (3¼”) Dot/Dash Circle die from the Spotlight on Natures Dies set.
  • The Floral image was stamped onto the Silicone Craft Sheet with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
  • The Die-Cut Circle was pressed onto the ink for a Reverse/Mirror image.
  • The image was colored with the Light and Dark Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends Markers and the retired Light Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Blendabilities Marker.
• Focal Image – Bee: (3” x 2″) Basic White cardstock.
  • The Bee image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and similarly colored with the same Bubble Bath and Coastal Cabana Markers.
  • The Bee was die-cut with the retired coordinating die from the Queen Bee Dies set.
• Decoration: Bubble Bath and Coastal Cabana cardstock scraps.
  • The two Floral and small Leaf dies, also from the Queen Bee Dies set, were die-cut.
  • Bubble Bath color was added to the Flowers with the Light Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends Marker.
  • Two Rhinestone Basic Jewels were colored with the Dark Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Blendabilities Marker.
• Sentiment Label: Coastal Cabana cardstock scrap.
  • The sentiment, thanks for being you, from the Penciled Pear stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with White Embossing Powder.
  • The Label was hand-torn.  Approximate size: (2⅛” x 1”).

All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch.  The Circle Die-Cut, the Bee, Flower Die-Cuts and the Sentiment Label were popped up with Dimensionals.
