Buzz, Brag and Bee Happy Friday at Betty Bee's Buzz

I love Buzz, Brag and Be Happy Fridays!!..It gives me a chance to Buzz and or Brag. As for being Happy, why not? Sure beats being down in the dumps. I would like to share with you a card I made using a digital stamp from our sponsor, Fred, She Said. This is the first time I'm using a pre-colored image and I must say, I found my new love!..The colors are so vivid when printed they just make my card come alive. Because I used matted cardstock, I used a light coating of Liquid Glass over the cardinal. I printed the stamp twice and cut out the holly and cardinal which was then popped for dimension. I love how this digital stamp also came with a colored background. I used Nestibilities for perfect framing of my digital stamp. I love coloring and have so many different mediums to accomplish the job. However, for the color and time this digital saved me, I will now be looking at more of those pre-colored stamps from Fred, She Said.

Stop by Betty Bee's Buzz and see what the HoneyBees have for you today.  Please share with us something you made or some good news!!..We would love hearing from you!!

HoneyBee Showcase 12/01-Cute Emma

I was so thrilled to see Fred She Said was going to be our sponsor at Betty Bee's Buzz!..Always loved Tracy's digital designs and now I get to add Emma to my collection.  My first project using Emma is a card.  She was painted in with Yasuiomo Pearlescent Watercolor set which gives a real petty glimmer look.  For dimension on her dress and hat, I used Liquid Pearls by Ranger.  Once I added Stickles, she was done!  My flowers were cut with a Martha Stewart punch, Flower Soft in the center and Stickles to make them sparkle.  The colors look off some, but the 'reds' really do match..lol

For this next project, I flipped Emma so she would be facing in the other direction.  I decided to make a little 'note pad' for my granddaughter, Nina.   She was colored in using my General's Pastel Chalk pencils. For the 'snow', I used Liquid Pearls by Ranger.  As you can see, Stickles was used in various places.
