Cards for Valentine’s Day featuring the Bee Mine Suite Collection

Hello my crafty friends. A real timesaver in cardmaking is beautiful Designer Series Paper (DSP)! A great example is the DSP that coordinates with the Bee Mine collection. And the super cute “buzzy” bee which is created using a punch. Another timesaver – card fronts using the book binding format – one of my favorites. What are you making for your Valentine this year?

This is a landscape A2 card: full sheet of 8 1/2" x 11” cardstock, cut in half at 4 1/4", score at 5 1/2" (and 4 1/4"), then fold at the 5 1/2" score line and burnish the side for a crisp edge. Fold the second score line at 4 1/4" in the opposite direction, burnish and (for this card) go ahead and glue together the faux book binding section. Use the 4” x 4” section of the card front for creating your buzzy bee and valentine’s sentiment. Then use the inside 4” x 4” section for your personal message to your valentine’s recipient.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  So happy that the punch includes a heart – and did you notice that it punches the buzzy bee’s wings perfectly.

I (HEART):  There are several “faces” in the Bee Mine Stamp Set for your buzzy bee. I chose the “winking” face for my buzzy bee. 😊

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope my project has inspired your creativity. I would love to see what you have created. Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.

Stamp On!!
