Hi there
I'm thrilled to be designing again for
Honey Doo Crafts.
Amanda will be showcasing many of the brand's existing products on Hochanda this coming Friday, 12 July 2019 (Sky 673 / Freeview 85) at 10am and 3pm.
As well as lots of the fabulous existing stamps and dies, Amanda will also be introducing two new large stamp sets:
Big Bold Blooms and
Chrysanthemum. If you can't wait until Friday, these can be purchased direct from Honey Doo Crafts right now.
Here are my sample cards using these two new sets. First up is Big Bold Blooms...
I began by stamping the three different sized flower images onto some clear vellum and heat embossed in white. I then coloured these on the reverse using Zig markers, blending with a darker shade towards the centre to create some depth, and fussy cut them out. The leaves were stamped and heat embossed in white onto some pale green vellum, and also fussy cut...
I stamped the sentiment on a white cardstock panel and ran this through my Big Shot with a wave effect embossing folder before adhering to the card base on fun foam. I used the handle of a paint brush to curl the petals of the flowers before gluing the layers together. Then finished by adhering to the panel and slotting in the leaves using glue dots.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Honey Doo Crafts - Big Bold Blooms, Birthday Sentiments
- Ink: VersaMark; Versafine - Onyx Black; Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers
- Embossing Powder: Altenew - Pure White
- Embossing Folder: We R Memory Keepers - Next Level: Wave
- Vellum from stash

Next up is another card using Big Bold Blooms...
I began by diagonally masking a section of the card base. I then stamped the leaves in grey ink, masked these and then ink blended out from the masked edge with Distress Ink. I then roughly coloured the leaves with ProMarkers. Next I stamped the three flowers and coloured these with ProMarkers before fussy cutting, adding some shimmer and layering up. The card was completed by adding the sentiment stamped in blue.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Honey Doo Crafts - Big Bold Blooms, Happy Times
- Ink: Memento - London Fog; Distress Ink - Dried Marigold; Versa Color - Neptune
- Coloured with ProMarkers
- Accent: Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen - Clear
And now my sample card using the stunning new Chrysanthemum set...
On a white cardstock panel I stamped the largest of the flowers and then masked it before stamping the two smaller blooms. All three flowers were then coloured with ProMarkers. I then cut away part of the panel on the right hand side and fussy cut around the petals. The panel was then adhered on 3D foam onto the card base over a strip of black textured cardstock. I added a heat embossed sentiment on a black strip and finished by adding some dotted details to the flower centres with a white pen.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Honey Doo Crafts - Chrysanthemum, Just in Case
- Ink: Memento - Tuxedo Black; VersaMark
- Embossing Powder: Wow! - Opaque Bright White
- Accents: Signo Uniball Pen - White
