Hello Hivers, Today I am sharing a few cards I made using the Flowers For Every Season 6" x 6" DSP. I love this sketch. I found the instructions over at Call Me Crafty Al. You can find my video tutorial below. My first card was made using the New In Color, Cinnamon Cider. Here is a look at the inside of the card with the matching envelope.
My next card was made using Just Jade, another New In Color. These cards really look nice.
Enjoy the Video!

Buzzz by on Tuesday to get a better look at the Celebrate Sunflowers cards. As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. Until next time....Buzzz you later. Honeybee
What if being creative was your job? Oh, wait! It can be! I would love to have you join my team.
This is another item I made for the 2020 Graduate I adopted. It is a gift box that holds a journal and pen. I got the instructions from Angelina. She has a video tutorial over on her blog on how to put the box together. I decorated the box the same as the cards and lip balm holder I shared about 2 weeks ago. I used the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Peaceful Moments stamp set for the sentiment.
Measurements:
Lid: 7-1/16" x 7-9/16" Scored at: 3/4″
Base: 8 x 7.5″ Scored at: 1″ on all four sides
Embossed Layer: 5.5" x 5"

Hello Hivers, Here is a look at another item I put in the Adopt A Senior 2020 gift basket I made. I am gifting a box set of 12 Thank You cards for the recipient to give out for some of the graduation gifts she will be receiving. The layout is the same as the Congrats and Thank You cards I shared last week.
I am loving the colors of this set...which just so happens to be the high schools colors. I used a few retired items on this project, but as you seen last week, these cards can be made using current product.
Here is a closer look at one of the cards.
Open box with cards inside.

Then cut with the Painted Labels Dies. Use Stamparatus to stamp sentiment. The bottom strip is my first try before thinking of my quick tip.

Hello Hivers, Today I am sharing a card using some Brand New products from the upcoming Annual Catalog. I have been thinking about all of the Class of 2020 graduates lately and decided to make a few cards to send out. I am loving all the New 2020-2022 In Colors. Today I am using Just Jade paired with Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White.
A few Measurements:
Base: 11" x 4.25" Score at: 5.5" Rich Razzleberry: 5.25" x 4", 2nd largest Stitched So Sweetly die, scrap about 4.5" x 4.5" for stamping DSP: 3.25" x 2-1/8" (portrait)
Take a look at the inside...
I also used this same card design to make a Thank You card for the family that "Adopted" my graduating senior. The card base is Basic Black and I used Shaded Spruce (stamped off twice) to stamp the sentiment.
Here is a video on how I put it all together. ENJOY!

I made these cute Mini Milk Cartons about 2.5 months ago. I got the tutorial from the Paper Pixie. I made these as wedding favors for my nephew. Sunflowers was their theme. We were supposed to go on a cruise for the reception, but of course that got cancelled. I am just getting around to posting these. I've waited so long that the sentiment I used is no longer available. It is from the Thoughtful Blooms Sale-A-Bration stamp set. But, no worries, you can substitute it for the "Thank You" in the Honey Bee stamp set. But you only have a few more days to get that stamp set as well. It is on the retirement list.
Here is a closer look at the Mini Milk Carton using the Honey Bee stamp set.
Enjoy the video tutorial.

Hello Hivers, This is my second alternate idea using the May 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit. This card is similar to one designed for the kit. I added some Pool Party cardstock for the card base and cut part of the front from the kit card. I also....well, you will see everything in the video.
ENJOY!

Hello Hivers, This card is very much the same card I shared on Tuesday. I just changed up the stamp set I used for the sentiment. I am using the Painted Harvest stamp set which is on the retirement list. It won't be around for much longer. This is a great year round stamp set. Be sure to get yours before it is too late. I made this thank you card for the family that "adopted" my son. I can't wait to see his face when he receives his gifts. I know he will appreciate it greatly. The kindness of some people is just so great.
Watch has I fumble my way through this video tutorial.
