It’s another tutorial using one of my favorite punches. Today’s card uses our fun little honey bee to create a quick and easy card to send someone who has been sweet.
This card uses the Bee My Valentine Bundle (162554) and items from the Suite found in our Mini Catalog and while it has Valentine in the name it’s not just for Valentine’s Day as you can see. Check out my quick little quick little video showing you how I created this card.
And of course I’ve got a printable pdf for you giving you measurements, supply list, and step by step instructions. It even includes the link so that you have everything in one place!

Yesterday was a crazy kind of day and so I didn’t get to share with you my weekly tutorial, but with the rain coming in again this afternoon it is a great time to spend a little time crafting! So here you go.
Today’s card uses the Bee Mine Suite and is quick and easy to create since it uses punches. The adorable Bee Builder Punch (162553) makes creating this fun little bee quick and easy and the 2″ Circle Punch (Online Exclusive 133782) will make your stamping so easy too. I love sentiments that are punched out like this since they make everyone successful. I know as a beginner stampers I loved punches since if I needed to stamp again I didn’t have to start all over again and could just do the one image or sentiment.
Here is a video tutorial for you
And of course a PDF that you can print that even contains the YouTube Link for easy reference!
I’ve got another fun tutorial for you today using the Bee Mine Suite Collection (162560). This time it is a treat, containing something sweet! I’ve got my Team Winter Retreat this weekend and wanted to make something special to put on their tables today for those spending the weekend. So here is what I came up with.
I cased this layout from the Mini Catalog – I love how the samples can inspire us, don’t you? I simply changed it up slightly to suit my needs and voila! A fun little candy bar slider. When I found this candy bar at my local Aldi during the holidays I knew it would be perfect as a little treat using the Bee My Valentine Bundle (162554) so in the cart it went.
And of course I wanted to have a little signature panel for the back of the slider so a little message could be written too. Fun!
Gifts like this is one of the reason I started stamping. I love to make fun items to gift to family and friends and this makes it easy to do and cost effective too! Something that was helpful when my children were young and I need to make a class set.
Want to see how I made this Candy Bar Slider? I’ve got a video tutorial for you today along with the PDF which will have a complete supply list, YouTube Link so you can print it off and go back to it easily, along with step by step instructions too.
Yesterday I shared a card that we made during an OnStage@Home event. So today I thought I’d share the other card we made with a quick little water color technique.
I loved punches when I first started to stamp they always made me feel successful since I didn’t have to stamp the entire card without any mistakes. How about you? Do you love them too? While I eventually build my collection to include dies and the machine I still love the ease and portability of a punch!
Here is a quick video for you showing how we made this card and of course a PDF too.
Today’s card is one that I’ve been wanting to share with you for a while, but it’s been kind of crazy around here with the weather and family so it got delayed. But you’re in luck berceuse I’ll be sharing more tutorials with this Suite. Today’s card was one of our Make n Takes during our November OnStage@Home events and now you can make one too!
Not only is this card quick and easy it’s totally cute with this little bee. And the punch makes it super easy to create a bunch of these.
Here is a quick video sharing how we made this card during the event. Along with a PDF that has a supply list, step by step instructions and measurements too.
