Bumble Bee Pocket Letter

Hello friends! Today I have a bumble bee pocket letter to share with you. I have used all kinds of CDD goodies throughout my project! I made this one for my Sis who got me hooked on the whole Pocket Letter idea! I went with her to a meet up and got to meet Janette Lane the founder and creator of the Pocket Letter. She was so sweet and pretty! I had the best time, met some talented crafty ladies and got so many goodies!!

Most of the cards were cut using the new stitched rectangle from the Pocket Pieces Hi Dies. I also used my Cricut for some of the die cuts, The mini tag hanging on the side is from the Cricut Creative Everyday cards cartridge.

The tags in the first row are from the Fancy Frame Dies and the Pocket Pieces Hi Dies. The sentiment is from the Just Bug-cause stamps. The little bee is from the Pooh and Friends Cartridge, the honey pot is from the Just Because cartridge, the center bee is from Paisley & the bee holding the gift bag is from Birthday Bash. I glittered up all the wings with either wink of stella or stickles.

These bees are stamped, embossed and colored with my Spectrum Noir markers. I used the Just Bug-Cause and Lil' bit Buggie stamps. The Hi is from the Pocket Pieces Hi Die. The honey is from my Martha Steward Drippy Goo punch. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the honeycomb pattern. The Bee Happy is from the Just Because cartridge.

The bee background paper was made using the sweet little bee from the Sending Love stamps. I doodled the little trail. The speech bubble is from the Mix It Up Dies and the sentiments are from the Just Bug-Cause and Lil Bit Buggie stamps. The shaker was made with the Silver & Gold sequins. The cute little bee is from the Give A Hoot Cartridge.

Here are all the goodies I used and you can find these

Craftin Desert Divas New Release- Blog Hop Day 2

Welcome to the CDD Stamp & Die Release Blog Hop Day 2.

  Trick Or Treat                                    Witches Brew

You can purchase them all here!

Here's what I've created for you...

First I made this card using my Cricut and the Boo stamps and stamp svg for the card base.

I welded the svg to a rectangle and welded it to the tombstone from the Cricut Life's A Party cartridge to make my card base. I colored up the image with my Spectrum Noir markers and added the Outdoor Landscape Dies to the front panel. The spider and web is from the Cricut Happy Hauntings cartridge.

I added a lot of shimmer using my Wink of Stella pen.

I stamped the inside with a sentiment from the new Fright Night stamps.

For my next project I made little treat boxes using the new stamps from Fright Night and Boo. 

I actually made 30 of these! I made them to give to some crafty ladies that I will be meeting for the first time at a Pocket Letter swap this weekend.  They are crafty so I wanted it to be nice but at the same time to make 30 of them, I didn't want to go overboard on the details. 

I made a video to show you how I made them:

The boxes were cut with my Cricut Plantin Schoolbook cartridge at 5 inches. Next I stamped up my images and embossed with the holographic embossing powder that I used on my spiderweb card. This way I wouldn't have any images to color and it would be quicker to put together.

The front stitched panel is from the Fancy Frames Dies. The sentiment is from the Say It Big stamps. The tag is from the New Mix It Up dies.

The postage die is also from the Mix It Up dies.

The stitched scallop is from the Banner Dies. I hope you like my projects!!
