Craft Roulette Challenge #167 - Thankful Bee!

It's still Sunday night, and I'm getting my Craft Roulette Challenge posted?!  Yep!  Got it finished early this week.  This is challenge #167, and I made what Mr. Wheel calls a Lil' Chubby card (4" x 8").

Find Craft Roulette on YouTube @CraftRoulette and play along when you can! 


Episode #167 parameters, and how I met them:
  • Project:  Thank you card
  • Colors:  Farmer's Market - I think of lots of vibrant GREENS with a few other bright colors
  • Element: Rhymes with "Bee"...I wasn't very clever this week.  Bee rhymes perfectly with Bee...:(
  • Random: Punctuation - added a  hand-drawn exclamation point on my greeting
 
Like I said earlier, this is a 4" x 8" card.  I'll have to make an envelope for it, but that's completely doable!

Gold emboss the bee, and cut with dies or by hand. 

Paper Measurements:
  • Shaded Spruce:  8" x 8", scored at 4"
  • Parakeet Party: 3 1/8" x 7 1/8"
  • Flowers & More Designer series paper:  (3) 2 3/8" x 3 1/8" - glue to piece above, so there are no borders.  This helps line up your pieces perfectly.
  • Parakeet Party:  3 3/8" x 7 3/8"
  • Basic White:  3 3/4" x 7 3/4", for inside of card
  • Basic White:  1 3/8" x 3 1/4", for greeting
  • Parakeet Party:  1 5/8" x 3 1/2", to layer greeting on.
  • Shaded Spruce/Parakeet Party:  enough to stamp/die cut bee and greenery

Greeting and bee are popped up.  Parakeet Party leaf/branches are glued down flat. 

Finish off with some Gilded Gems!

Stamps:  Queen Bee, Kindest Expressions
Ink:  Shaded Spruce, Versamark
Paper: Shaded Spruce, Parakeet Party, Basic White, Flowers & More designer series paper
Other:  Bee dies, Gilded embossing powder (Brutus Monroe), Gilded Gems

I haven't been finished my challenge this early in MONTHS!  :)

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!
