Today's card has a sneak peek of some new products for you! One of the five new in colors that will be introduced in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog is called Bumblebee. I just had to pair it with the Honey Bee Bundle!
Sadly, the Honey Bee Bundle is retiring, so if you haven't grabbed it yet, make sure you do soon so that you don't miss out! Demonstrators are able to pre-order a selection of products from the new catalog right now, and you'll notice some of them on this card:
- the paper I used for the beehive is from the new 6 x 6" stacks of Designer Series Paper. I'm so glad they're bringing polka dots back!
- the enamel dots come in a package with all 5 of the new in colors
- the pink color you see is another new color - Magenta Madness
There are lots of little details on this card - I used the flower stamps in the stamp set with Versamark ink to create a subtle background on the card base. The Detailed Bee Dies were used to cut out the honeycomb, the stamped bee, the hearts, and the beehive.
I love these dies! You even get an intricate bee die - check it out!
Are you excited for the new catalog? Using new products is so much fun! If you just can't wait until June 3 to purchase them, consider buying a starter kit. You can include products from the pre-order in it, and then you'll have a 20% discount to use on the rest of the catalog when it goes live on June 3. You can find out more here or contact me if you'd like to chat.

I am definitely a last minute crafter most days. How about you? Since tomorrow is Valentine's Day, I spent the afternoon working on some of mine. January's Paper Pumpkin kit, I'll Bee Yours, was the perfect starting point!
This is the intended use for the kit - and I didn't even put them all together! I added some Ghiradelli chocolate hearts for the teachers at my kids' school. Yum!
Then I moved on to the kids' treats. We found inexpensive heart lollipops, and I used the stamps in the kit, along with a bee cut from the Golden Honey Specialty paper, the Heart Punch Pack, and the Gingham Gala Sequins.
I did four different color designs, and I love how they turned out! I don't think the kids in Kindergarten and 2nd grade are going to appreciate them as much as I do. Ha! But I enjoyed making them, and that's what counts, right?
