Honeycomb

The well of ideas has run pretty dry lately, but I was inspired by the arrival of my Papertreyink order last night. I know bees make honeycombs, and this is a teeny ladybug, but use your imagination! How I made this card: All stamps from Papertreyink. Repeatedly stamped the 3 little "peapods" from the Green Thumb set with Stampin Up Summer Sun Classic Ink onto Iceberg Beckett's Expression #80 Cardstock, making a row of dots to form a honeycomb like image. Stamped the words from Papertreyink's Faux Ribbon set using SU's Classic Black ink onto the honeycomb background and punched a 1 1/4" circle. I stamped the tiny lady bug from the Little Lady set to add a non bulky accent (think postage!!). Mounted on a SU Black cardstock circle punched with SU's 1 3/8" punch and then adhered to the white Making Memories flower. I used the large circle from Green Thumb to make a honeycomb like background for the bottom portion of the card, stamping with Summer Sun Classic ink onto Summer Sun cardstock and used SU's corner rounder punch to round off the bottom of the card. (Note: I have finally found the perfect use for SU's black ink -- it works beautifully on these clear stamps!).
