Honeybee Stamps Cosmos With Spectrum Noir Markers

Hi Everyone,
Today I have a floral card to share with you using the HoneyBee Cosmos Stamps and they are coloured with Tri-Blends from Spectrum Noir. I created my own backgrounds using Distress Oxide Inks in the same colours as my flowers. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.

Step 1 - Trim White Cardstock (110lbs) to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score at 4 1/4" and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (A2)

Step 2 - Trim White Cardstock to 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". Apply Distress Oxide Ink Spiced Marmalade and Seedless Preserves onto a craft mat. Spray with water and dip the cardstock. Heat set it with a heat tool. Repeat until you reach the desired effect. Let dry.

Step 3 - Diecut Double Stitched Rectangle using the background created from Step 2. Adhere to a trimmed piece of Fun Foam and then adhere to the card front using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

Step 4 - Stamp Cosmos onto White Cardstock using Gina K Amalgam Ink. Colour in the images using Tri-Blend 3 in 1 Markers from Spectrum Noir. I used Orange Blend, Purple Blend and Citrus Green Blend. Diecut with matching images or fussy cut. Adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive and pop the Purple flower with Foam Squares.

Step 5 - Diecut Happy Birthday (only Happy) using Black Cardstock and Fun Foam. Adhere the black diecut on top of the fun foam diecut. Adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

Step 6 - Stamp Tiny Words Sentiment using Versafine Onyx Ink on White Cardstock. Trim and adhere to card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

Step 7 - (Optional) For added interest and shine randomly add Nuvo Crystal Drops Morning Dew.

This card can be used for any occasion by changing the colors and sentiment. The Tri-Blends can be purchased at Crafter's Companion. They sell them individually or the complete set.
