Hello my crafty friends! Today I’m participating in an Instagram Hop featuring the latest release from Honey Bee Stamps! Be sure to visit my Instagram page to enter in the giveaways!

I’m using the Lovely Layers Pansy as my focal point. The Lovely Layers are such a popular line with Honey Bee Stamps!

I die cut the Pansy from White cardstock then ink blended to add detail and shading.

To ink blend my Pansy I’m using Shaded Lilac, Villainous Potion and Black Soot Distress Oxide inks using small blending tools. For the centers of the flower I used Scattered Straw and Wild Honey. Then for the leaves I used Twisted Citron, Rustic Wilderness and Black Soot.

I die cut the Opulent Layering Frames from White cardstock, added foam tape to the back and attached it to an A2 panel created from the Gingham Paper Pad. I love these larger sized paper pads as I feel there is less waste.

For my sentiment, I used the Best of Everything stamp set. I stamped it in Intense Black ink and used the coordinating die to cut it out and add to the front of my card.
