BUZZING with good wishes.....

Hi scrappin' friends.........

I have been wanting to create a card with the Close To My Heart "Buzz and Bumble" paper and today I did it!


Materials used:

  • printed papers from the Buzz and Bumble paper pack - Workshops on the Go
  • plain cardstock colors: Champagne and Cocoa
  • flowers were done with the stamp set included with the Buzz and Bumble Workshops on the Go
  • the large focal stamp is "Buzzing with good news" from Close To My Heart
  • Elmer's permanent dot tape runner
  • Glitter Dusttm - iridescent
  • white cardstock Close To My Heart
  • Threading Water Fiskers boarder punch
  • 6 inches of brown satin ribbon
  • Cuddlebug swiss dot folder
  • General's watercolor pencils
The base of the card is 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 inches.  Champagne cardstock was cut to 5 3/8 X 4 1/8 inches and embossed with the swiss dot folder and then sanded.  Three coordinating papers from the "Buzz and Bumble" paper was cut 2 X 5 3/8 inches and punched with the "Threading Water" boarder punch.   The "Buzzing with good wishes" was stamped on a 3 1/4 X 2 7/8 inch of honey comb paper from the same packet and then layered on a 3 1/2 X 3 1/4 piece of cocoa cardstock.  I sanded the edges of the cocoa cardstock.  I stamped the flowers on Champagne cardstock and then "painted" them with the orange and yellow pencils using the Close To My Heart water pen to blend.  I then fussy cut them out, rolled the edges around a pencil and then sprayed with the Glitter Dust.  I then assembled the card as shown in the picture.
