Birthday Buzz: A Bee-Themed Celebration!

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today, we’re buzzing with excitement as I showcase a delightful card featuring the Bee My Valentine Bundle, but with a twist – it’s all about birthdays! Who said these bees were only for Valentine’s Day? I’m flipping the script and infusing some birthday cheer into our crafting with this fun and vibrant card design.

The front of the card is the vibrant floral pattern from the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper. This paper not only adds a burst of color but also sets the perfect backdrop for our birthday celebration.

At the center stage, our adorable bee friends are highlighted courtesy of the Perennial Postage dies. These fussy cut bees create a charming focal point, bringing the theme to life. But what’s a bee without its shimmer? A touch of Wink of Stella on the bee wings adds a magical sparkle, elevating the whimsical vibe of the card.

While the card may be buzzing with bees, it’s all about sending heartfelt birthday wishes. To emphasize this, I’ve cut the card front short to prominently display the birthday greeting from the So Sincere stamp set. It’s all about making sure my recipient knows they’re being celebrated on their special day!

No birthday card is complete without a bit of sparkle! Besides the Wink of Stella on the wings, I’ve adorned my card with iridescent rhinestones, strategically placed to highlight the stamped birthday greeting. These little gems not only add a touch of elegance but also make the card truly shine.

As card makers, we have the wonderful ability to create moments of joy and celebration through our handmade creations. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or just a day to spread some love, there’s nothing quite like receiving a handmade card filled with thoughtfulness and care.

With the Bee My Valentine Bundle, I’ve shown that you can take a theme traditionally associated with one occasion and adapt it to suit any celebration. Birthdays are just the beginning – imagine the possibilities for weddings, graduations, or simply sending a “thinking of you” message!

Thanks for hanging out with me to discover what all the “buzz” was about!

Enjoy your Friday!

Try 3-D Scrapbooking to Enhance your Photos!

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I have a 3-D project to share with you that has a touch of scrapbooking flair! As the temperature drops, there’s no better time to embark on a journey of artistic expression, and the Bee Mine Suite is here to make it even more enchanting. This whimsical assortment features an array of “bee”utifully designed stamps & papers; from buzzing bees and honeycomb patterns to sweet sentiments that evoke the warmth of heartfelt emotions. 

I want to share and inspire you with this cute creation ….

Let’s start with what makes this a 3-D project … this cute little picture frame that I picked up at the $$1.25 Store! This is a cute picture frame to begin with and holds a 4″ x 3″ photo, so that is the measurement of my designer paper. These cute little projects make the PERFECT Grandparents Gift on Valentines Day and cute to have around the house as your 3-D Scrapbook. Friends love these too!

The photo montage can be easily moved into your scrapbook. I attached the bee and jar of honey with a glue dot (Just enough to hold it) and then using your Take Your Pick tool… you can remove it as well to go into your scrapbook. 

The sentiment, bee and jar of honey all come from the Bee Mine Suite.  I used the Circle Die from Stylish Shapes and the banner die from Nested Essentials to embellish my creation and to create the focal point! And yes, that is my Armani again. This one is going to his mama for Valentines Day ❤

Whether you’re assembling a scrapbook filled with cherished memories or working on a whimsical 3-D project, the Bee Mine Suite provides the perfect elements to bring your vision to life. I’ve got links to the products used today below.
