Anna Wight (sweetmissdaisy) challenged us to make a card with a bee(s) and/or use yellow. I used this sweet Bee Bear Penny Black image colored with a mixture of Ranger Distress Inks and Copic markers. I paper-pieced the bear's outfit. The lace ribbon is ruffled. The sentiment is from Rubbernecker.
The next HYCCT challenge was given to us by Patty (pattyb) to make a pink collage. I paired this challenge with the Featured Stamper challenge to honor DeborahLynneS. I met Deb a few years ago when she lived in our Upper Peninsula. She is a sweetie and makes the most beautiful cards!
I chose to case Deb's gorgeous Stamp Simply Prima Hop card. We are required to change two or more elements in our design to make it our own. I used different stamps, colors, made my own flowers, used grungeboard instead of chipboard, and distressed the edges of my paper for a shabby chic effect.
The little flowers were made with Marianne Creatables dies. I used the same Rubbernecker collage image for one flower, striped dp for another, and then I colored white cardstock with Ranger's Spun Sugar Distress Ink. I glued these flowers around my white organdy ribbon with Aleene's Tacky Glue. Here are a couple close-up photos of the flowers.
I hope you're having a great Sunday, and I appreciate your stopping by to visit me!
