Bee Mine Bees Valentine Card Jan

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!!

If you are looking for one last card idea for Valentine’s Day, here is a card I got from my very dear friend! She always makes beautiful cards! I called this the Bee Mine Bees Valentine Card! It is made with the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper. I didn’t think I was into bees, but as soon as I started working with this paper it was just so cute! I loved cutting out the medium-sized bees on one of the papers and using them for embellishments! And the paper is not just for Valentine’s Day. The patterns will mix and match and not all of them have hearts. But hearts are for any time so don’t be afraid to use the cute bees with hearts!

This card uses several of the products in the Bee Mine Suite Collection in the Spring Mini Catalog. If you want to use just one item number for ordering all the products in the Suite, you will get the Bundle price on the stamp set and punch. Otherwise, just order the products individually that you want and/or the Bee Mine Bundle. Remember to think in terms of spending increments of $50 so you can earn FREE Sale-A-Bration products until February 29th!

This card uses the Petal Pink honeycomb pattern for the card front and then two other papers layered on diagonals. The Sweet Sorbet paper with the squiggly bee flight lines is layered on Basic White and the paper with the little bees is layered on Basic Black. The large heart on the front has a greeting embossed in white from the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set. That’s such a cute saying I think! There is one of the cute little flower embellishments in the Suite, the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers, on the heart. Wrapped around the bee paper and under the popped-up heart is the Sweet Sorbet 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon. And of course, we have a cute Valentine bee, stamped and then cut out with the Bee Builder Punch which cuts out the bee body and the wings which could also be hearts plus a little bitty heart, which could also be little bitty wings. It’s really a more versatile punch than it looks like!

Country Bouquet Hearts Valentine Card

Are you making Valentines? Here is a fun one, the Country Bouquet Hearts Valentine Card, with lots of stamped hearts! Sometimes I like to just stamp randomly all over the card. It just feels good and the simplicity is nice!

For this card, I used the solid heart in the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set in the Spring Mini Catalog. I started by stamping three Sweet Sorbet hearts. Then I just chose several other colors and mostly stamped three hearts of each color. You can use whatever color theme you like! I think I used Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight, Soft Sea Foam, and Calypso Coral. I crammed them in there! Be sure to turn the stamp or paper so they are all going in slightly different directions. Not to be one to know when to stop, I also added some really small hearts stamped in Melon Mambo ink.

Before adhering the hearts card front, I wrapped around a piece of Silver & White 1/2″ Sheer Ribbon down the side. After adhering the front layer to the Sweet Sorbet card base, I tied a bow around that piece of ribbon. I liked this ribbon because you could still see through it to see the colored hearts.

For the greeting, I chose “With Love” in the Country Bouquet Stamp Set. I wanted to stamp it on the heart punched out of the Country Bouquet Punch but it was too long so I had to stamp each word by carefully inking up only one word at a time. It was risky but I did it! I could have done it a more careful way but I took a chance! I popped up the stamped heart over a diecut rectangle in the Timeless Arrangements Dies. Then I scattered around some Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels.

Have fun making some Valentines!
