Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Dies Only Challenge! The bees have been buzzing in my backyard, so I was inspired to make a beehive card. I started by die cutting the Tree Branches Backdrop: Portrait out of some Chocolate Bar Cardstock. Then I cut the leaves from Cilantro and Noble Fir.

Next, I trimmed the Magic Iris Beehive Add-On from Sunflower Cardstock, backed the hole with more Chocolate Bar, and die cut the bees from Sticky Note, Black Licorice, with Pearlized Vellum for the wings. I cut the flowers from Ballet Slippers and Guava Cardstock and also cut the word “BEE” from Guava using Finley’s ABCs. I added shading to all my die cut elements with Copic markers. Then I white heat embossed the “happy’ and ‘day” parts of my sentiment into the center of the beehive, leaving enough room in the middle for my die cut letters.

Then I took a piece of Bristol Cardstock and created a background using the Cloudy Stencil and some Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink. I popped the Tree Branches Backdrop: Portrait up with foam tape to give the scene some dimension and added in my beehive, leaves, flowers, and bees. I finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles.

I did stamp on the inside of my card with Bubblegum Ink, which you can check out in the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. I really hope you enjoy it! Thanks so much for stopping by today.

I love this bright and cheery card, Christy! Thank you so much for this wonderful inspiration!
