Honey Bee Bundle coordinates perfectly with Gold Foil-Edged Cards and Envelopes

  • Stampin' Up! Honey Bee Stamp Set
  • Gold Foil-Edged Cards and Envelopes to dress up your cards
  • Final days to register for upcoming classes 
  • Stampin' Up! Honey Bee Stamp Set 

    One of the often overlooked product in the Stampin' Up! annual catalog are the Gold Foil-Edged Cards and Envelopes on page 168.  Coupled with the gold foil accents on the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper an the Honey Bee Stamp Set from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure and the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog, you'll make classy cards that speak volumes to how much you care.   And the best news?  The Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper is a free selection with a $50 order (less shipping and tax) during Sale-A-Bration.  Order all the supplies you need for this card today.          
    




The basecard for today's card is one of the Gold Foil-Edged Cards.  A package of cards comes with matching Gold Foil-Edged Envelopes.  Then I added one of the foil prints from the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper pack, a Free Sale-A-Bration selection.  The I cut a strip of another print from the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper so that the foil was in the center of the Back Strip.  Our new Paper Trimmer helps make these beautiful smooth cuts.
                   




I then inked up the bee hive in the Honey Bee Cling Stamp Set and stamped it on Whisper White with Versamark ink.  I Covered the image with Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder and set it with my Heat Tool.  I die cut it using the Detailed Bee Dies.  I stamped the large bee from the Honey Bee Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Whisper White, and die cut it using the Detailed Bee Dies.  


To finish the card, I used sentiments from the Honey Bee Stamp Set.  I stamped the sentiments in Versamark ink onto Basic Black Cardstock, covered them with White Stampin' Emboss Powder, and set them with my Heat Tool.



To finish the card, I added a Gold 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon, a carry over item that you won't find in current catalogs, but it is still available (item #152156, $7.00 USD).  This ribbon is perfect for pairing with the Gold Foil element on this card.  I completed the card by adding a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels.  



  
     

You'll love how quickly this this card goes together using Gold Foil-Edged Cards & matching envelopes.  Order the Honey Bee Bundle and the Gold Foil-Edged Cards &Envelopes and the Gold Shimmer Ribbon and you'll qualify for a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration selection.  You can pick the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Series Paper as your Sale-A-Bration Selection and make more of these cards.  Or select a different free gift with your order from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure.
