Hi, this is Jingle here today with a creative Buzzing By Card that showcases how to create an interesting background on a fun-themed design.
There seems to be a trend of using bees in all kinds of crafting and decor lately, and I am here for it! They truly are quite adorable and the puns, oh, the puns! I don’t know about you, but I am always up for a good pun.
Card Panel Background
For this card, not only are these adorable chubby bees the focal point, I made a bee background using layering stencils. For a bit more interest, I sprayed a layer of shimmer spritz through the wings stencil. It provides such a pretty, shimmery look to the background!
The rest was simple! I centered a die-cut circle with Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft. Next, use the Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix to adhere the bees and the sentiment strip to the card. This adds just a bit of dimension! Lastly, the Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft was the perfect choice for adhering the completed panel to a black card base. It gives just a bit of lift and a whole lot of fun!
I hope this has inspired you to buzz around with some bee-themed supplies along with your favorite foam tapes!
Thanks for buzzing by!
