Welcome to a January A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop! If you were a lucky recipient of the January kit…wowzers! Before I show you my projects for today’s Blog Hop, here’s an interesting fact for you. Paper Pumpkin was ranked 12th in the top 20 Best Art & Craft Subscription Box Review by My Subscription Addiction! But we all know how wonderful our monthly kits are anyway, right? Isn’t that amazing though and thanks to all of you that are subscribers for making this happen!
I used three of the pre-printed die-cut hearts that came with the kit and glued them opposite to each other. I also used the border stamp image and stamped above the hearts. I then plastered the card front with lots & lots of the die-cut bees. How could you not use up those pretty bees?
For the next card, I had this idea in my head to use the beautiful self-adhesive flowered sequins to created a bzzzz line for the bees. I started at one end with a few, then added a die-cut bee with Mini Dimensionals, added a few more flowers and kept alternating until I reached the other end:
