MACM – Another 5-minute card challenge attempt

Hi all! Today I decided to try my hand at the 5-minute card challenge again. I haven’t been successful yet, but maybe today’s the day? :)

The sentiment stamp is from Simon Says Stamp’s Apothecary Labels stamp set, and the background stamp is the Arrow Background stamp from BasicGrey and Hero Arts. I inked up the background stamp with three inks from Hero Arts: Pale Tomato, Soft Pool, and Butter Bar.

Anyhow, enjoy!

Friday Focus – Curved Edge Bee Card

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. You’ve seen this card before. :) I shared this card a couple month ago for a Simon Says Stamp Blog Hop. When I made the card, I had the camcorder recording, but I never edited the video footage. The file has been sitting on my computer ever since! I received a couple emails asking about that card, so I thought I would edit the video and share it with you guys today.

Between the bee and honeycomb stamps from the Circle Friends stamp set, the Honeycomb embossing folder, and all the yellow parts of the card (made with Hero Arts Butter Bar ink), this card definitely has a bee theme going on. :) The curved edge was made by sketching out a curved edge and then cutting it with scissors.

Anyhow, I hope you guys enjoy this “long lost video footage.” ;)
