SSS July Card Kit: Two Punny Cards

Hi everyone!

I'm popping by to share a final two cards featuring the fun Simon Says Stamp July Card Kit: Bee Yourself!




Both of today's cards focus on the new Bee Yourself Stamp Set from the July Card Kit. The images and sentiments were stamped on Simon's 120 lb White Cardstock diecut with their Stitched Rectangle Dies and coloured with Copic Markers and a star dust glitter pen. These panels were then matted with Simon's Black or Sunshine Cardstock.

For the first card I took a piece of the Honey Bee Stamps The Bees Knees Patterned Paper and used an old splatter background stamp (any background stamp will do) with Simon's Clear Embossing Ink and Ranger's Sticky Embossing Powder. After using my heat tool I placed a piece of the Rainbow Shattered Foiling Paper over top, rubbing it with my hand to help it stick to the sticky embossing before removing the foil sheet. I assembled my card on a notecard made from Simon's Sea Glass Cardstock and anded some of the small black sequins from Simon's Buzzy Bee Sequins for the bees' eyes.





For my second card I wanted to make use of Simon's new Small Hexagon Cluster Die. I paired my second stamped, matted panel with another piece of Honey Bee Stamps The Bees Knees Patterned Paper. I cut Simon's Black Cardstock twice using the new die and positioned the pieces behind the stamped panel to creat a border. I finished the card off with some more sequins from Simon's Buzzy Bee Sequins Mix.
