Bee My Love Valentine


01/27/2021 Update: 
Top Three Winner at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #404.

Today is the last day for the weekly sketch challenge at Atlantic Hearts. I have been making a few valentines for family and friends and was inspired to use this week's sketch for one of them. 



Using a black card base, a panel of striped black and gold metallic patterned paper was added. Next, I added a smaller rectangle of white with gold metallic patterned paper using foam tape. The red metallic heart was cut using a punch and added with foam tape. The bees and sentiment were stamped, colored with Copic markers, and then die-cut. I added the bees with foam tape and adhered the sentiment directly to the heart. The inside of the card was lined with white cardstock and stamped with a large Copic-colored bee. Small punched hearts of red metallic paper were also added.
