More Honeysuckles!

Life is back to normal this week - but I do miss my sidekick being home!  I drowned my loneliness with a bit more playtime with those wonderful Honeysuckles from The Greetery!

I brought out 'grownup loving' colors today - a bit of curry is so pleasing to my eyes [and taste buds]!


Remember the brickwork I did on my first Honeysuckle card?
This darling Honeycomb Corners Die added the same charm to my tag - IMHO.
All the better to see more of my favorite Altenew debossing die, right?


First a closeup so you can see my little buzzy friend, and where I've used those 'leftover' bits of honeycomb AND another favorite debossing plate from Wplus9!



Those sweet little sentiments come from The Greetery's Market Basket Sentiments set.  That little bee is Colorado Craft Co.'s Bee You.  The wonderful linen twine is from my sweet friend LeAnne!

Those of you with the eyes of an eagle will notice my card is left a little off-balanced by that stem - I just couldn't bear to snip it off!  lol

That's it for me today!  Hope you find a little extra time to spend in your playrooms!

  13. Oooh, those little bits you put to work on your second card are looking mighty good to my eyes! I love both cards. The honeysuckle is just so pretty. I love that Rich and I are retired together -- working around the house and garden, or lazing around, or picking up and going whenever. You did a good job consoling yourself!
