More Black and Yellow for Color Hues

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


A very QACAS card today.

I've been having a wonderful time playing with my Feathered Lilies kit.
I love the deep embossing of these flowers!  I rub the inside of the embossing
folder (both sides) with a clean baby wipe, and place the watercolor paper inside to
get a deep impression.


The bee was stamped in black, colored with a marker, smooshed in 
VersaMark ink, clear heat embossed and die cut.

Challenges:
Color Hues #42 - Black and Yellow
NBUS #39 - Never Before Used Schtuff (embossing folder)

 



Card Recipe
Stamps:  Dragonfly Dreams (ret SU), Easy Expressions Original (Ton)
Ink:   Versafine Onyx Black, VersaMark, Daffodil Delight Marker (SU)
Paper:   Neenah, Solar White, Watercolor (TH), 
Other:  Feathered Lilies 3D EF (Alt), Clear EP, Dragonfly Dreams Die (ret SU)


Enjoy!

That bumble bee certainly knows where to fly too. That is a great EF, and I love your subtle yellow and black. Smart card.

Beautiful CAS design Bonnie. I LOVE how you've kept the background all white so that bee really stands out. The new embossing folder is so pretty. Thanks for the tip about using a baby wipe to help get a deep impression. xx

I've got your baby wipe tip on a post in note in my stamp room. Now all I need is some of these gorgeous 3D embossing folders! I love how CAS this is with just the bee for accent. Beautiful, Bonnie!

What an eye catching card Bonnie! I am loving that beautiful embossing you have done, such a deep impression. The bee is fabulous, I love how he looks like he is so fuzzy, like they really do in real life. Love, love, love this card! Hugs, Brenda

I was tickled to see you promoting the Color at CH once again with this gorgeous card! The bee actually looks like it is fuzzy and not shiny which is super cool! As many have said, CAS at its best! I appreciate you!

I'm delighted to see this beauty in our Color Hues gallery this week, Bonnie! What gorgeous detail from the embossing folder, I just love it! Thanks for the baby wipe tip.

Linby said...

This is just beautiful. What a wonderful idea to emboss and leave white the background with the focal stamp - I must try this! Thanks for the inspiration and well done on using NBUS.
