Lacy Bee Wings!

By KariV on February 28, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Oh, honey. Today I have a really fun glittery project to share! I’m going to share with you how to make glitter wings that look just like LACE. Eep! These are so much fun to make and so pretty on a bee. (I imagine they would be just as beautiful on a butterfly or a fairy, too!)

First, let me show you my cards. Please notice those lacy glittery wings!

Those lacy wings have me all glittery-eyed!

I’m going to show you just how to get these two-toned glittery wings. Watch the video below or on YouTube:

I hope you are inspired to try this technique yourself. I also made a tall card using two of those bees with their two-toned wings.

I hope you enjoyed this project today. I’m also up on The Hedgehog Hollow blog sharing all the information! Check it out and get more information on the HH Subscription boxes here.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Be Happy!

Bee Happy Rainbow card with the HH February Kit

By KariV on February 21, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a cheerful card for you using products from the Hedgehog Hollow February kit. It starts with a rainbow of colors of Distress Ink so you know it’s going to be cheery! I used Picked Raspberry, Worn Lipstick, Orange Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Evergreen Bough, Peacock Feathers, Denim Jeans, Shaded Lilac, and Wilted Violet. With all those colors, you are sure to smile! (at least they made me smile)

I used some die cut hexagons that would normally just be thrown out! But they were perfect for my project today. To adhere these in perfect alignment, I put all the colored hexagons into the die cut, then picked it all up with some Glad Press N Seal. Then I turned it over and added some glue ONLY to the rainbow pieces. I attached it all to the card panel, let it dry for a minute, then removed the die cut to reveal the perfect placement of all those beautiful hexagons!

I used the bees, bee trails and BEE happy sentiment from the stamp set that came in the February Kit, and as an outline for the bottom layer I used the small hexagon stamp repeatedly for the border.

I popped up those bees with some Scotch 3M foam tape (the mega roll!) to give more dimension. I put some craft foam between the top layer and the bottom layer for even more dimension!

I hope you enjoyed this cheery project today! Check out how you can get the Hedgehog Hollow Kit here. And she is taking pre-orders for the April Kit (which I hear has some Art Impressions!!)

See you next time!
