Pocket Watch and BEAUtanicals stamp sets by Bee Crafty

Afternoon  everyone xx

Been having a "play" with some of my gorgeous stamps from Bee Crafty and thought I'd blog this card
I used the following stamp sets :
Pocket Watch 
BEAUtanicals Wildflower
BEAUtanicals Ground Elder
Friendship

Also used:
Distress Oxides : Twisted Citron, Picked Raspberry
Distress Inks   : Worn Lipstick
Inkables Tempate Brick Wall
Smokey Grey versafine ink

• To begin I cut two pieces of white card, in decreasing size, slightly smaller than card blank 
• On the smallest mat I inked through the Brick Wall template in the Worn Lipstick Distress ink
• The Pocket Watch was stamped in Smokey Grey versafine ink in the centre of the card 
• Using the Twisted Citron Distress Oxide, I stamped the Wildflower stamp, randomly across the left side of the page
• I inked up the Ground Elder stamp in the Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide and again stamped it randomly. I also did second generation stamping, ie stamping a second time without reinking the stamp. This adds the effect of light and shade
• The Friendship part of the sentiment stamp was inked up and stamped in the Smokey Grey versafine ink 
• I then assembled the layers of my card using wet glue

I love the combination of all these stamp sets. I hope you do to. 

Thankyou for taking the time to have a look at todays play

Good morning crafters 😊

What are we all up to? Any crafting on the agenda?

I'm back with my weekly Bee Crafty DT blog over on Buzzy Goings On At Bee Crafty Blog 

I've been combining all my favourite stamps again, with my favourite ever colour,  Cracked Pistachio. ..lol. I just LOVE this shade of green and today it's combined with blues

For this sample I've used:
Splatter Swirl Upright Rectangle Frame
Ladies Profile 
BEAUtanicals Wildflower 2
Life &Rain

Also used:
Distress Oxides : Cracked Pistachio
Distress Inks : Salty Ocean, Tumbled Glass
Smokey Grey versafine ink
Dinkables: Chain Link, Honeycomb

• I inked up the Splatter Swirl frame in Cracked Pistachio DO and stamped it in the centre of my card blank 
• Having masked the frame off, I stamped the Ladies Profile in Salty Ocean DI
• On the opposite outside edge corners of the frame, I blended Tumbled Glass DI through the Honeycomb stencil and Cracked Pistachio DO through the Chain Link stencil 
• The Wildflower was then stamped randomly in both the Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass DI'S 
• To complete I stamped the sentiment in Smokey Grey versafine ink 

I hope you like both the combination of stamps, and colours, I've used as much as I do

Many thanks for popping by and I'll be back again next week with another Bee Crafty blog

Birds On A Wire and BEAUtanicals Wildflower 2 by Bee Crafty

Hello everyone x

It's me back with my weekly DT blog for
Bee Crafty over on their blog
Buzzy Goings On At Bee Crafty Blog


Today I'm sharing a card I made using the following stamps
Birds On A Wire 
BEAUtanicals Wildflower 2
Friendship

Also used :
Distress Oxides   : Picked Raspberry
Distress Inks  : Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Cracked Pistachio, Wilted Violet
Black onyx versafine ink

•  I cut a panel of pink card and a slightly smaller panel of white card, that would mat vertically down the side of my 8x8 card blank 
• Using masking tape I masked of a smaller panel on the white card
• I inked up an acrylic block with the 4 distress inks and spritzed with water then I stamped over the masked panel
• Keeping the masking tape on, I stamped the Birds On A Wire in black onyx versafine ink 
• I removed the tape and stamped the Friendship part of the stamp across the bottom.  I adhered this to the pink card panel
• Using this panel as I guide I stamped the flowers onto the card blank, in the Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide and the Black onyx versafine ink,  so they looked like they were tucked under the panel, which I then adhered to the card blank with wet glue
• The remainder of the Friendship stamp was stamped in black onyx versafine ink onto a piece of card, cut down and matted onto some of the pink card 
• This was adhered with foam pads to complete this sample 

I hope you like this week's sample showcasing these beautiful products.
