Bizzy Bec's June challenge


Hello Peeps!

Hope you are all doing OK with the strife this world is in and are hunkered
down and in a crafty place!

It is the beginning of the month and so I have a new project made for  


Anything Goes

Today I have made some tags
3 tags from one sheet of A4 thick Whisper White card

I began by using some stencils, sponges and TH Distress Inks
I have a few colours out but ended up using only three major ones
Wild Honey, Abandoned Coral, Broken China and a bit of Shabby Shutters (green)

My stencils are from mys stencil pile - a growing pile - and are varied
but any flower stencils would do and I used a honeycomb one as well
-or wire fence

My major theme was around Bees after all



I worked in three areas and then decided where the cuts were to be
but you could rule up lightly if you wanted to be precise

I over stamped the stencilling with black ink and used two 
Dark Room Door stamp sets (see below for details)
However, the sentiments and bees came from the set you can see in the photo


I selected ribbons after rounding the top corners of the tags and piercing them
Three ribbons used in each and I stitched and tied them in 
That took the longest time to do with my wonky hands!


It was night by the time I had finished so I used a flash to take the one below this to see if the colours changed at all and they did a bit!


A bit cleaner and more clarity perhaps.....


This is what I used......

Darkroom Door DDTS Buzzing Bees
Darkroom Door DDRS163 Fine Flowers
Stencils - various from stash
Ribbon from my stash

If you wanted to improve thisyou could perhaps emboss with a black EP 
the flowers and sentiment and stamp and fussycut the bee; then colour the bee in as well
before attaching it on top of the original stamped bee.

Thee are always prizes at Bizzy Becs
