Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase week 6 - Bumblebee


Welcome to week 6 of the Art With Heart Colour Creations Showcase, this week featuring one of our new 2020-2021 In colors, Bumblebee. Bumblebee is a rich yellow colour, perfect for sunflowers, hence my card this week.


I have used the Sunflowers dies and the Stitched So Sweetly dies to make this card. The detailed layer of the sunflower was cut from Bumblebee card stock and the base layer was cut from Crushed Curry card stock.


The colour difference between the two yellows adds extra dimension to the flower. It's a bit difficult to see the colour difference in the photos, but it is there.
I sponged the center of the top flower with Early Espresso ink and a sponge dauber.


The leaves are cut from Garden Green card stock. The scalloped rectangle for the greeting is from my favourite dies, Stitched So Sweetly and the greeting is from the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set.
The background paper is from the In Good Taste DSP pack.

The final touches are a couple of loops of Linen Tread and some In Color Enamel Dots in Bumblebee.

All of the supplies I have used are listed below if you need to refer to them, otherwise contact me with any questions.

For more Bumblebee inspiration head to Cathy's Blog for a complete list of today's participants.

Happy stamping,
Rachel
