I created a couple of cards for this hop! Thank you so much Honey Bee Stamps for inviting me as your guest. :)

To make this card, I took a standard sized white card base and ink blended the background with grey ink and added tiny droplets of Black Soot Distress Ink. I used the beautiful Zen Florals for my card today.

My stamps are on the way, by the way! Mean while I used the digital file that the Honey Bee Stamps sent me! I took a print out and colored the florals with Grape Jelly Ink from Memento, Peacock Feathers and Antique Linen distress inks and added Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Pen.

Next I stamped the sentiment from Happy Everything Stamp set with Archival Jet Black Ink.

Then I fussy cut all the images and adhered them on top and bottom with the help of foam tape and finally added clear sequins. 

Here is the second one and I used the same Zen Florals.

I took a standard sized card base and ink blended a tiny portion in the background with Mustard Seed Distress Ink and then added tiny droplets of Black Soot distress ink.

I then water-colored the images with Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Vintage Photo and Peeled Paint distress ink and adhered them in a cluster with the help of tombow glue!

Next I stamped the sentiment from the same Happy Everything stamp set with Archival Jet Black Ink and with a few clear sequins!

And that finishes the cards for today! 

Your next stop is gorgeous Lisa.
