Sometimes Craft Product Bring on Happy Memories & Inspire You! Working With The Market Cart Builder Die From Honey Bee Stamps.

 Well Hello And Welcome

With so many beautiful releases this month, I found it hard to choose which on to showcase for you. But this little cart made me smile as my brother used to own a cart very similar. As a child I would sometimes go with him as he rang his bell and walked his round selling his flowers. So this Die and Stencil, combination is a perfect to send to him to tell him what an awesome big brother he is. My Best Friend.

Method

First, I die cut the cart.

Then I choose my cardstock and die cut all the elements.

Using the stencil I added colour to your cardstock. I used the detailed blending brushes. Firstly Sea Glass ink on the Sea Glass cardstock I had used. Then moving the stencil, as it has two different strips I then added the white pigment ink.

Then attach to your card, I use acrylic blocks to hold in place why it dries.

I Carry on adding the elements.

When adding the wheel I used an eyelet and coloured with Nuvo drops. This way the wheel still rotates.

I continued to add all the other elements, and the flowers I blended them, with die inks for contrast ( I seemed to have lost this photo)

 On a piece of white cardstock cut to 5 1/2" x 5 1/2", I blending my oxides with stencils to create the background..

Next I added mounting tape to the back of my cart.

This was then added to my background.

Finally I mounted the whole thing to my card blank.

I made this little sentiment using the sentiment stamps and twine. Also I made little stiches around the sides of the cart. 

I hope you enjoyed this weeks blog post with me, next week is more die cutting fun from Honey Bee Stamps.

Happy Paper Crafting
