Three Different Card Styles...... Using Honey Bee Stamps Brilliant Day.


Well Hello,
I have been playing with the Brilliant Day Stamp Set.
 From our friends at Honey Bee Stamps.
I love their bold designs as they beg us to colour them. So out came the Alcohol Markers, and Polychromos in rainbow order. 


The problem was I couldn't stop playing.😄😄😄
Anyway lets show you were it all began.

Creating Borders

Nuvo Drops in Red Berry, Ripened Pumpkin,English Mustard,Pioneer Green,Caribbean Ocean,and Midnight Blue. (Gloss,except the Pioneer Green) 

Method

Firstly I stamped out the pencil image using my memento ink pad, on to 80lb Neenah card stock.


I then flip the image around and stamped the other side of a piece 4 3/4" x 5 1/2"

Then I Coloured my pencils in rainbow order with alcohol markers and used a polychromos pencil to colour, the top of the pencil to give a more realistic look.


I then backed the 5" x 7" 
card base in black card stock, added a strip of patterned paper and added my image using funky foam to add dimension.
I then added this to my card at an angle.
Heat embossed the sentiment, in white embossing powder on to more black card stock and placed it on to my card.

Adding the finishing touches I used various Nuvo Drops.

Inside the card I stamped in the same Memento ink



Card Two
Stamping In Rows

Products

Same As Above in Card One

Card Blank 6" x 6" 

Glossy Accents or Nuvo Crystal Glaze

Ebony Black Nuvo drops

Method 


Using an acrylic block I stamp out three lines on the page.
I found doing the top and bottom and then the middle the easier of ways to stamp.
Colouring as before.



Then adding glossy accents to the body of the pencil and the nib. I allowed it to dry, then stamped and embossed my sentiment on to black card stock and lastly added the nuvo drops.



Card Three
Stamping On Kraft.(The quickest, and my Favorite)

Products

Kraft Card Stock 4" x 6"
4" x 6" Card Blank
WoW White Embossing Powder ( Fine)
Polychromos in Geranium Red, Cadmium Orange,Cadmium Yellow,Light Green,Cobalt Green, and Red Violet.
Again I used the Cinnamon for the pencil  
White  Paint/Gesso

Method

I first stamped on to the Kraft card stock in clear embossing ink, on the bottom section of my card. Then I embossed in wow white embossing powder, and heat set it.


I then ripped a piece of copy paper to cover the pencils, and splatted the Kraft
 card with white paint.


Once dry, I coloured in the pencils in the rainbow of polychromos and add a sentiment and embossed it in the same white embossing powder.
I slightly trimmed around the edges before mounting it on to the card blank.

I hope I shown how you can achieve different looks by choosing different ways of stamping.



Happy Stamping
