Isa's Challenge - H is for Honey!

I haven't kept up with these challenges for the last couple of weeks and I was determined to get this week's in! This week on Scrap and Stamp it is the letter H - I chose to have the theme of Honey and I went for option 2 to add a piece of metal. I used two sets of Stampin' Up sets - Bees and Blossoms and Definitely Decorative Daisy.

Firstly I coloured a piece of white card with a yellow Ecoline ink and then stamped over with a honeycomb stamp in a similar colour - tone on tone. Then added a few stampings in Adirondack terracotta for depth. The Daisies are stamped directly over this using Adirondack Terracotta and Sepia Versafine. Bees have been stamped in black versafine. I have used the same inks to colour the tag and I have added the word Honey with a Dymo strip. Tied to a piece of gold metallic honeycomb with ribbon and a gold 'made for you' charm has been added to the ribbon. The tag and honeycomb are mounted with 3D foam pads.

I am going to see if I can catch up with the ones I have missed over the next couple of weeks!
