Sweet as Honey

Hi there!  Last month after Christmas cards were finally made n' mailed I sat with my baskets of never before used stamps and made up a few card kits.  For each kit I stamped the images, chose papers and embellishments, and in most cases I prepped the card base to the point that all I had to do was add the focal panel and embellishments.  There are a few different reasons for doing this, but mostly it was just plain fun.



A few days ago I pulled this kit out of the basket and finished the card.  I paired a not-yet-used Unity stamp with an old favorite Spellbinders die combo.  It was all prepped and ready to go with ancient SU designer paper peeking from under the decorative die.  I colored with Copics, then glued the image panel to the card base and added the sentiment and gold sequins.  Sweet as honey!



I'd like to play in the following two challenges

Beautiful Blossoms Challenge -- Anything goes or optional mood board as shown below.
NBUS Challenge #82 -- Never before used schtuff (Unity Sweet as Honey stamp)


 


I'm so glad we could visit today.  We'll get together again real soon, okay?  Take care!
