Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Honey Bee Stamp for their Summer Release Blog Hop. You can check out their fun, summer release HERE!
I’ve created two projects featuring the Diamond Thin Frames-Honey Cuts.
I die cut the diamond with several colors of cardstock and adhered them together. For the sentiment I embossed the Hello from Gear Up.
For this next card I used more diamonds created with all of the pieces left over. I trimmed one diamond into fourths and adhered it onto the corners.
For the sentiment I used the Friend-Honey Cuts with a coordinating sentiment embossed from the Farm Fresh Flowers stamp set.
Here’s a video to show I how I created these cards.
GIVEAWAY!
Honey Bee Stamps will be offering a $25 Gift Card for each day as a giveaway. Leave me a comment to be entered to win.

Cath T
July 7, 2020 at 8:46 pmLove, love, love your videos, especially the little side stories. Don’t go listening to any naysayers. I feel like you’ve invited me in to make cards with you at your dining room table. If you did, the chatter wouldn’t be all about the cards. I also love the fact that you always pack so much info into a short video. Nobody edits a how-to video as well as you do. And that downhome Pekin charm always comes through, even from Germany. Eye popping cards. I can see these in seasonal color schemes for Halloween and even maybe cut out as Christmas ornaments. Classic Laura Fadora snazz.

July 8, 2020 at 5:30 pmI have to say that I was very excited to see this die set. I’ve been making graduation cards and have been struggling with caps because I don’t have any diamond shapes. This is definately going into my shopping cart. That being said, I really like how you used it to make such colorful fun elements. These look wonderful. Thanks for the video.
