Hope You're Feeling Honky-Dory

Hello, Honey Bee friends!  I'm still having so much fun playing with the new Lovely Layers: Porch Goose from the new Fashionably Feathered release!  Today I've dressed this cute goose in an outfit from the Porch Goose Closet: Spring Honey Cuts.

I made the background for the Goose with the Rustic Brick 3D embossing folder and a panel of white cardstock.  I used Bee Creative Glue to adhere the embossed piece to an A2 card base.  I hand cut a grassy hill from green cardstock and glued that to the card.

I die cut the Lovely Layers: Porch Goose from white cardstock.  I used a few Copic markers to color the beak, eye, cheek, and legs.  I die cut most of the images on this card with the awesome, new Platinum Scout die cutting machine.

Next I die cut various papers with the dies from the Porch Goose Closet: Spring from yellow cardstock, purple cardstock from the Hive Hues Garden Party cardstock pack and patterned paper from the Garden Party paper pad.

I used glue to adhere the Goose's layers together and added foam adhesive to the back to adhere it to the card.

The flowers are the small version of the Lovely Layers: Coneflower that's included with Honey Bee's brand new Platinum Scout die cutting machine.  I would estimate that the dies with the machine are about ½ the size of the original.  Check out this photo I took last week:

It's the cutest little die cutting machine!  I love the teal color and the bees and flowers that are on all sides of it.

I die cut the coneflower from white cardstock with the new Scout die cutting machine.  Then I used some purple and yellow inks and blending brushes to color the layers.  I used glue and foam adhesive to adhere the flowers to the card.  If you don't have these there are several choices in this link.  Any of the smaller flowers would be perfect!

I stamped a sentiment from the Silly Goose stamp set in black pigment ink.  Then I cut it out with the coordinating Silly Goose die.  I used foam strips to adhere the sentiment to the card.

In case you missed it, here's a photo of the card I made for the Instagram hop.  This has the Porch Goose dressed up in outfits from the Porch Goose Closet: Winter dies.  I have all of the details here on my blog.

This pair of geese look so cute and ready for the holidays!  Check out the entire Fashionably Feathered release to see all of the awesome sets available!

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you have a honkin' wonderful day!  (Sorry, I couldn't resist--lol!)
