Hi friends! Happy Wednesday! Please join me in welcoming special guest Caly Person in our bi-monthly Crafty with Caly blog series! Today, Caly is showcasing some new Honey Bee die cuts perfect to make a sweet Hello card to celebrate the Spring season and send to a special friend! Be sure to watch the video for all the details, and enjoy!

Hi there! It’s Caly with you today and I’m bringing fresh spring vibes with today’s die-cut card using Lovely Layers Spring Birds, Nest, and Spring Greenery from Honey Bee Stamps!

I’m a huge fan of piecing together die-cut elements and it’s so fun to be able to create a full screen with the Honey Bee Stamps coordinating products!  Everything you see aside from the nest and lavender flowers are die-cut using white cardstock and then ink-blended with ink to color.

Check out the video to see how it’s done!

WATCH THE VIDEO:

The Lovely Layers Nest is die-cut using Neenah Desert Storm Environmental cardstock and the lavender sprigs using Lavender cardstock. I tried to incorporate lots of colors to make this card colorful.  All the colors will be linked below for your convenience!

For the background, I ink-blended Sage ink for a soft glow and die-cut a stitched border using the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles dies.  After piecing all the elements, I began to build and layer the images to create my spring scene.

I finished by stamping a sentiment from the Best of Everything stamp set.  I hope you like it!!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!  ~Caly
