Thank you so much for joining me for this Mixed Media Yellow and Grey Honey Bee A2 Card, Let's jump right in.
To start I wanted to create my background, I used a piece of watercolour cardstock and sprayed on two colours of Distress oxide spray in Mustard seed and Hickory smoke, as well as some Flickering Candle Mica spray, working between the colours and water to create a background I was happy with. Once the background was dry I brought in some texture paste and the Honey comb hex stencil and added the paste to three areas across the background and set it aside too dry.
I stamped out three of the bees from the Bee Happy stamp set in Copic safe in on HammerMill cardstock and coloured them in with a blend of Y15, Y17 and YR15 for the bodies, and I used BG000 with RV000 to add a subtle colour to the wings, then fussy cut the bees out. I added some thin 3D foam squares to the bodies of the bees leaving the wings free to move around.
I trimmed my background down about 1/4 of an inch and added a sunshine yellow matte that I cut to about 1/8th of an inch smaller than my base, I used Nuvo Deluxe glue to adhered my layers to my base and then added my bees on top. I brought in some Yellow Crystals, white gel pen and some Clear glitter pen for some added touches on the card and called it done.
