Honeycomb Happiness Archives - Inkspired Treasures

It’s time for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge! It’s another fun sketch to try. I must admit…I had to pull mine together VERY quickly! I’ve been a little busy helping out with my son and his family. But, I thought it turned out pretty cute and it was QUICK! I used Honeycomb Happiness…just haven’t used this set much at all and VERY soon Sale-A-Bration will be over!

So, even though the sketch looks square, I made mine into a regular sized rectangle…I just tend to send those types of cards more than square. Here’s what I came up with:

The deets:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Whisper White, folded in half.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Pool Party is on top.
A 2 x 4-3/4 strip of Cherry On Top Designer Paper Stack was placed on top, with a 1/2 x 5-1/4 strip of coordinating DSP over the top portion.
Under the DSP layer is a 1/4 x 4 strip of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper for a little sparkle.
You’re So Sweet from Honeycomb Happiness is stamped with Black Archival Ink in the bottom left corner.
The 2-1/2 Circle Punch was cut from Whisper White and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The Ice Cream cone was stamped with Black Archival Ink on Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder and Pool Party, then hand-cut out the cone an the scoops of ice cream. The cone was colored with the Crumb Cake Stampin’ Write Marker. They were adhered on the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Finally, a little Clear Wink of Stella was added to the ice cream scoops for even more sparkle!

OK…make sure to check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did this week over on Create with Connie and Mary. AND…we have THREE new Challenge Team members, so make sure to check out their work and say hi!

Sorry if you got my test message this morning…little gremlins working on my dashboard, hopefully it is all working now!

I made this tag a few weeks ago when we did the Sale-A-Bration blog hop, but decided not to use it and created another one. Still thought I’d show it here since that chick is just TOO cute! I’m deciding if I want to add it to a card, or use it on a gift bag!

Here are the details:

The base is 3 x 5-1/2 Thick Whisper White and I slid the top into the back of the Scallop Tag Topper, centered it and punched, then trimmed away the excess on the sides.
A 1 x 2-3/4 piece of Crumb Cake cardstock was torn, sponged with Crumb Cake Ink and added to the bottom of the 2-3/4 x 4-1/2 Lost Lagoon cardstock.
A 2-1/2 Circle was punched from Soft Sky and tucked under the top of the “ground”.
Hang in There was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink in the upper left corner.
The chick from Honeycomb Happiness was stamped with Tuxedo Black on scrap Whisper White and watercolored with So Saffron and Daffodil Delight Markers. The beak and feet were colored with Pumpkin Pie Marker. It was cut out and popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The Balloon was stamped first directly on the tag and then on Real Red and the bow on Daffodil Delight with Tuxedo Black Ink, the cut out and added to the front with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
A Rhinestone Jewel is placed on the bow and Clear Wink of Stella added to the balloon.
Finally, the Pool Party Glitter Ribbon is tied on the top of the Scallop Tag.

So cute…that chick is just one of my favorites!
