Hi crafty friends! Today I'm popping in with a little inspiration with this month's Not 2 Shabby Box of the Month. I absolutely love these darling gnomes in the Spring Gnomes Ephemera, so pulled out the What's Buzzing paper pad and got busy in my craft room.
I started out with the honeycomb patterned paper, fussy cutting the edges of my panel. A bit of work, but I liked the finished effect. Next I coated the panel with some collage medium so I could add on some other mediums. I wanted the effect of honey dripping from the top, so used a combination of distress crayons, watercolor pencils, dye inks, and sprays to create a sticky, drippy concoction. Most of my favorite drips got covered up with the hexagon panel, but I still love the finished look.
I added a little Copic marker highlighting to the ephemera image. Don't you just love that bee balloon? I added a couple of bees flitting around, then stamped the sentiment onto a die cut from the EZ Wonder Die #1. I then lightly stamped the small solid hexagons stamp randomly around the sentiment banner and outlined with a black pencil. Such a super sweet card, and so fun to put together!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulously creative day!
