Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Here’s another sneak peek of the sweet Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine bundle that will be available on January 4, 2024 when the new Jan – Apr 2024 Mini Catalog opens! This is such a cute new bundle with a photopolymer stamp set for two step stamping and a coordinating punch. You can find the currently available supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week:

I adhered a strip of Sweet Sorbet floral Bee Mine designer series paper (available Jan 4, 2024) to panel of the DSP that is full of cute bees, flowers and hearts. I adhered the panel to a Sweet Sorbet mat and adhered the panel to the front of a Pool Party card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a Pool Party Strip and adhered it to a Sweet Sorbet mat and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the bee from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil Delight ink on Basic White and stamped the face and stripes in Memento Tuxedo Black. I stamped the antenna in Memento Tuxedo black and stamped the wings in Petal Pink. I used the light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend to color in the rest of the wings and punched out the bee, wings and antenna. I assembled the bee with glue dots and adhered it to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with three Pool Party punched hearts and flowers and hearts from the new Adhesive Backed Flowers And Hearts embellishments (available Jan 4, 2024).

For the inside of the card, I stamped the honeycomb from the Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine stamp set in Daffodil delight in the corner of a Basic White panel. I stamped the stem in Lemon Lime Twist and the flower in Sweet Sorbet. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Bee Mine DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Bee My Valentine stamp set is wonderful with so many different stamps to make different bees, pretty sentiments and extra flower and heart stamps to compliment the bees. Here’s the bundle:

These coordinate beautifully with the pretty Bee Mine designer series paper and they will all be available in the upcoming January – April Mini Catalog on January 4, 2024.
