Sadly, the Honey Bee stamp set is retiring. However, before it does, I want to show you my Honey Bee Meets Parisian Blossoms Hello Card. The Parisian Blossoms Designer Series Paper gives the card a nice pop of color and a glimmer of shine with it’s metallic details. Adding the Bee in Petal Pink vellum ties the color scheme together nicely.
Honey Bee Hello card coordinating colors
This beautiful color palette consists of Basic Gray, Smoky Slate, Petal Pink, and Pool Party.
In addition to the pleasing color palette, there are many layers in this card too! The layering leaves embossing folder gives texture to the whisper white background, and the Stampin’ Dimensionals give lift to the bee hive, the honey bee, and the hello sentiment.
To add a little bit of sparkle to the card, I did four things. First, I chose the Parisian Blossoms DSP that has metallic elements in it. Second, Petal Pink Metallic-Edge Ribbon was wrapped around the top layer in the middle. Third, the honey bee’s wings got a coating of Wink of Stella, as shown in the picture below. Lastly, two Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels were applied. Who doesn’t love a little bling?
