Join us in spreading joy and “bee-autiful” creations with the new Sweet as Honey Collection by Heartfelt Creations! “Swarming” with stunning illustrations of whimsical honey bees, charming hives and “bee-autious” garden scenes, this fun and lighthearted collection is ideal for creating projects for a multitude of occasions and is sure to capture the hearts of the young and the young at heart!

Watch this video for shaping and coloring tips and techniques on the Backyard Blossoms flowers:  https://youtu.be/swO34-n1HNc.

Instructions:  
Finished size of tag is 4” x 8”.  Cut patterned paper to match manilla tag, ink edges with bright tangelo ink and glue to tag.  Punch hole and attach a yellow eyelet.  Add some seam binding to tag.

Using honeycomb die, cut a border from yellow cardstock and trim edges with scissors, using same die, cut the honeycomb shape from fun foam and cut apart with scissors, the foam will be used to give the cardstock dimension when gluing to the tag.  Add glue to the foam and adhere to the back of the cardstock honeycomb diecut, add glue on the foam and glut to the tag as pictured.

Stamp the images and flowers on watercolor paper with Onyx Black Versafine ink, cut with coordinating dies.  Color images with Zig Clean color brush markers or your favorite watercolor paints.  Shape all pieces slightly using the flower shaping kit.  For the flowers I layered 4 of them with a second layer of petals to give them more dimension.

Glue flowers and all images with foam dots for dimension.  Apply Lion’s Mane glitter to the petals of the flowers, Shell White glitter to the wings of the bee girl, and Redlands elements to the center of the flowers as pictured.  Add a few bead stamens and attach a couple of charms to the seam binding.
