Valentine cards using Bee My Valentine Stamp Set and Bee Builder Punch from Stampin' Up!

                                                              

  • Valentine cards using Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Suite
  • Two joining bonuses offered until 29 February during Sale-A-Bration
  • Lovely Lavender January 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit coordinates with Perennial Lavender Suite

I'm continuing to play with the Stampin' Up! Bee Mine Suite from the January-April 2024 Mini catalog to create Valentine cards.  This product suite includes the Bee My Valentine bundle with the most darling Bee images.   I made two versions of today's simple cards.  I made one of my cards using the jolly bee and the other cars with a more sophisticated yet simple look without the bee.  The versatile punch with the Bee My Valentine bundle not only punches the elements for the bee, including the bee body, bee wings and bee antenna, but it also punches two different heart sizes and you could also use the bee body shape as a dialog balloon or a word balloon.  The creative designers at Stampin' Up! gave us a great value with this punch. The Bee Mine suite includes the Bee Mine 12" X 12 Designer Series Paper, the Sweet Sorbet 1/4" Bordering Ribbon and Adhesive-Backed Hearts and Flowers accessories.  There's even a Square Pillow box that's perfect for decorating and filling with Valentine treats.   I used a color theme of Sweet Sorbet, Daffodil Delight, Basic Black and Basic White for my color them. The Bee My Valentine Stamp Set includes seven different sentiments perfect for Valentine cards, and several would also work for Anniversary cards as well.  With Valentine's Day less than 6 weeks away, its not too early to begin creating your cards today. Purchasing from the January - April Min Catalog is now underway, as does the earning period for Sale-A-Bration.  From January 4-February 29, for each $50 or $100 you spend, you can select Free items from the Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration Brochure.  As always, Sale-A-Bration selections are available until out of stock, so my Shopping tip is to order from the new Mini catalog and Annual Catalog early so your Free Sale-A-Bration selections are available when you order.

    The basecard for this card is Basic Black Cardstock.  Then a layer of one of the prints from the Bee Mine 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper  Then the image layer is Basic White Cardstock matted with a piece of Basic Black Cardstock.

    Next, on both cards, I used the one of the flower stamps to stamp a row of Sweet Sorbet flowers along the bottom of the card.  I colored the centers of each flower with Daffodil Delight Blends.  Then, one one card, I added a Bee created using the Bee Builder Punch and the Bee My Valentine Stamps Set.  You have multiple facial expressions to choose from in this stamp set, and the bee can be positioned to look right, left or straight ahead, which gives you great creative flexibility. The Bee Building Punch also punches the wings and antennae, and can also be used to punch out two different sizes of heart shapes.

    Finally, I used Sweet Sorbet 1/4" Bordered Ribbon from the Bee Mine Suite to create a bow for the top of each card.  I used a sentiments from the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set and stamped a sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  Then I added Adhesive-Backed Hearts in daffodil Delight to on card, and the Bee to the other card.
