Ohhh, this week over at Stampotique Designer's Challenge we were given a difficult challenge for me-Anything BUT a card. I don't know why I always find that challenge a doozy, and this week was no exception.
I had some ideas in mind but then I decided at the last minute to change it up. I always love to decorate things that I can display. I had some large wooden paperclips that I hadn't used and wanted something to display my new family photo.
I grabbed a few of my all time favorite stamps and went to work. First, I created a background strip for the paperclip using the Honeycomb Background 8116. I stamped the Big Bee 3008 twice, once on white cardstock which I colored with my copic markers and then again on some vellum cardstock which I cut out to create some iridescent bee wings.
I then stamped the Medium Bee 3000 and cut it out to adhere to the top as if he were flying right off my paperclip. There was a little open space so decided a sentiment of some kind was in order. Since there wasn't a ton of space, I created something using my Typewriter alpha 10018.
Hope you have enjoyed my creations each week as much as I enjoyed being a guest designer for Stampotique Designer's Challenge. Jump on over and join us by thinking outside the box and creating Anything but a card.
