You’re as Sweet as Honey
What Makes This Card Special:
- Rustic Charm: The pattern paper combination of florals with a rustic woodgrain background and soft twine adds an earthy, cozy vibe. The warm tones paired with the honey-themed sentiment make this card perfect for sending love and sweetness to someone special.
- Watercolor Magic: I used Distress Inks to watercolor the floral elements, giving them a soft, dreamy look. These inks blend effortlessly, creating delicate shades that make the flowers pop.
- Golden Glow: To add a little extra something, I painted the tips of the flowers and bee with Unity Sunny Sparkle mica powder. This gives the card a subtle, shimmery shine that catches the light beautifully—like a touch of golden honey right on your card!
- Distress Ink colors: Mustard Seed, Dried Marigold, Abandoned Coral, Peeled Paint, Rustic Wilderness
