Paper Sweeties January 2019 Winter Inspiration Day #2

Welcome back to day 2 of the Winter Inspiration Paper Sweeties Fans!
I hope you enjoyed seeing all of the wonderful projects
that the design team created yesterday!

In keeping with my Valentine's Day theme, I've created a sweet little tag with the adorable
bumble bee from the Bee Happy stamp set.

To begin with I stenciled a honeycomb pattern on to a piece of 

Bristol Smooth card stock with 4 different color distress inks.

Squeezed Lemonade

Mustard Seed

Fossilized Amber

and

Vintage Photo

This gave the tag an ombre look with the darkest color at the bottom.

After that I splattered some black paint around the tag for some added interest.

Once I liked the look of the background I die cut it out with the

Sweet Cuts For You Tag Die.

The next step was to stamp and color that cute little bumble bee from the

Bee Happy stamp set. I used my Copic markers to do the coloring and

I added white highlights with my Gelly Roll white pen.

I also added a little bit of shimmer to the wings with my 

Spectrum Noir Sparkle brush but it is hard to see that in the picture. 

I selectively stamped the word Bee from the Bee Happy stamp set on 

to black card stock and heat embossed it in white.

The letters to spell out MINE were cut with my Scan n Cut machine

as well as the 3 little sparkly hearts!

I also cut a second tag slightly larger in so I could mat the first tag on

black to make the yellow honeycombs stand out.

To finish off the tag I added a beautiful bow from some

Licorice Seam Binding

The bow was the perfect finishing touch for my sweet little tag!

I love how this tag turned out and I can't wait to use

it on a Valentine treat!

Paper Sweeties certainly has everything you could need

to create some SWEET projects!
