Hello Honey Bee friends! Today I'm sharing this fun "picnic-in-a-park" card where I've used two awesome stencil sets along with two Lovely Layers sets, all from the new Perfect Picnic release! It's so fun to combine products in this way to make a card that makes me want to go on a picnic! Want to join me?
I first started out by using the Summer Scene Builder stencils. This is a set of seven stencils that create a wonderful scene to be used for many card occasions! I used some green and brown inks from my stash with blender brushes to ink the scene onto white cardstock. My card panel is 4-¼" x 5-½".
I used Bee Creative glue to adhere the stencil to an A2 card base.
Next I used the blanket die from the Lovely Layers: Perfect Picnic Honey Cuts to cut white cardstock into this blanket shape. Then I used the Picnic Blanket Builder stencils to color my picnic blanket with Black Soot Distress Ink. I used my scissors to cut a rectangle of one corner of the blanket for my picnic scene.
I die cut the umbrella and picnic food with the dies in the Lovely Layers: Picnic Table Honey Cuts. I die cut two of the umbrella top from white cardstock and one from black cardstock. I cut apart the black die cut and glued the pieces to the white cardstock die cut. Next I used the decorative floral portion of the Picnic Blanket Builder stencils to stencil the flowers onto the other white umbrella die cut.
I took my scissors, again, to cut apart the stenciled umbrella. I glued those onto the black and white umbrella to create this fun floral and black umbrella. Then I added Hexagon adhesive to the umbrella top to adhere it to the card. I cut off the overhang with my scissors.
I used various Copic markers to color the basket, sandwich, bread, wine, and glasses. After I glued the layers together, I adhered them onto the Picnic Blanket.
The sentiment is from the Stacked With Joy stamp set. I stamped it with black pigment ink and cut it out with the coordinating Stacked With Joy die.
I love how my picnic scene turned out! I hope you do too and have been inspired to create your own fun picnic card!
Thank you so very much for stopping by today! I'll see you here next week with more inspiration. Have a wonderful and crafty day!
