Sneak Peek: Bee Friends

Hello Pretty Pink Posh Friends! Suzy here and today I get to show you one of the soon to be released stamp sets called Bee Friends. This was the stamp set that came free with an $80 purchase during the last release in March, so you’ve probably seen a few projects made with this darling stamp and die set. During this latest release, it is now up for sale! Today I have three projects to share with you featuring Bee Friends.

If you look close, there are some other sneak peeks on this image as well – three new stand alone die sets: Scallop Hexagon Dies, Scallop Circle Tags Dies, and Scallop Borders 2 Dies. Paulina always knows how to create dies that are irresistible and different than anything else on the market!

This shaker card was made using the new Scallop Hexagon Dies. I die-cut the medium sized hexagon out of the top half of watercolor paper. I painted the front of the card with a yellow and orange watercolor wash. I used foam tape to create a shaker card and filled the opening with the new Mini Sparkling Clear Flower Sequins.

I stamped the images on white cardstock with black ink and colored them all in with Copic markers. I attached them to the front of the card. I stamped the sentiment on the bottom of the card with Versamark Ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. Last, I added some more of the Mini Sparkling Clear Flower Sequins around the flowers and some 4mm and 6mm Marigold Sequins around the Hexagon.

This card is made using the new Scallop Borders 2 Dies. I die-cut a stitched rectangle out of watercolor paper and then used a border die along one edge. I stamped and embossed all of the heart images in the stamp set with white embossing powder randomly over this piece. I then water colored it with light blue watercolor. I layered it over a piece of patterned paper that shows along the bottom edge.

I stamped the sentiment with Versamark Ink and embossed it with blue embossing powder. I cut around the edges and attached it to the front of the card. I then stamped all of the other stamped images on white cardstock with black ink and colored them in with Copic markers. I attached them to the front of the card around the sentiment.

I used the new Scallop Circle Tags Dies for this little gift tag. Wouldn’t this be so cute tied to a plant as a gift? I die-cut two tags out of watercolor paper and I painted one of them with blue paint. I die-cut the opening piece out of the center of this one and attached it to the unpainted tag. This gave me white under the opening and also made the tag thicker.

Next I stamped a sentiment from the Everyday Greetings stamp set in the opening. I stamped all of the images on white cardstock with black ink and colored them in with Copic markers. I layered the flowers around the opening and added a bee on top of the opening. I finished it with some of the new Mini Sparkling Clear Flower Sequins.

Thank you so much for visiting the Pretty Pink Posh blog today! I hope you enjoyed these projects with the new Bee Friends stamp set. I can’t wait for you to see all of the new stamps and dies being released – they are some of my favorite PPP products ever! Have a great week!
