I was so excited to play with this week’s Wednesday Sketch Challenge! It’s an awesome sketch with lots of possibilities for design! Here’s the sketch:
And my take on the sketch:
I am OBSESSED with the Meant to Bee Stamp Set, and knew when I saw this week’s sketch challenge that this set would be perfect for it! I started with a Smooth White image panel and I blended some Mustard Seed Distress Ink onto the panel using the Mini Chicken Wire Stencil. I die cut the the outside edge of the image panel using the A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-Namics Set 2. Instead of the circle frame in the sketch, I used the Stitched Hexagon STAX Die-Namics to create a die cut and embossed hexagon in its place. I actually die cut it directly from the image panel, to retain the ink blended hexagon pattern. I stamped the bees from the Meant to Bee Stamp Set onto some Smooth White Card Stock and colored them with Copics. I added some Clear Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents to the bees’ wings, and then I die cut them with the coordinating Meant to Bee Die-Namics. I stamped the sentiment from the Meant to Bee Stamp Set onto a scrap of Daffodil Card Stock using Sweet Tooth Pigment Ink and heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder. I die cut it and a strip of paper from the Black & White Stripes 6 x 6 Paper Pack using the Slanted Sentiment Strips Die-Namics. The card was assembled using foam squares. I’ve listed and linked all of the products that I used below.

And then I’ll be holed up in my craft room for the indefinite near future until I get caught up on my deadlines! LOL Thanks so much for stopping by! I’ll be back again soon with more crafty stuff!
