Hi, friends! It’s Leica here today for day 3 of our blog hop.

I have a card and tag set using a combination of old and new stamp sets from Pretty Pink Posh. The old stamp set is Bee Friends and the new one is Spring Circles. I love that the new Spring Circles stamp sets go perfectly together with other PPP products, such as the Hummingbird Thanks, any of the butterflies setsSpring RobinsSpring Scene Die, and the new Flower Bouquets stamp set.

Let’s start with the circle card. To begin, I die cut a white cardstock using a 4.5″ circle die and another one in 4″. I then ink blended the smaller circle with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide ink and sprayed some water for some interest. I also cut a small part of the circle in white cardstock for the grass area and inked with Twisted Citron Distress Oxide. The scallop edge is cut using Scallop Borders Dies. I ended up with 2 layers of the grass area, because the inked smudged on the first layer so I fixed my mistake by adhering another layer on top. In the end, I liked the look of the double scallop edging for the grass.

Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from the Bee Friends stamp set. I then stamped the bee trails on the circle panel and the sentiment on the grass piece. Lastly, I adhered the stamped images onto the card panel using liquid glue and the bees with foam tape for dimension.

For the matching tag, I used the tag die from the Spring Circles coordinating dies. I used the Mini Polka Dots Stencil with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink for the background. The bee image in a circle is from Spring Circles and I added a little bee from the Bee Friends stamp set, too.  Lastly, the From Me to You sentiment is from Bear Friends stamp set. Make sure to check your stash for other beautiful sentiments that fit on the Simple Strips Dies.
