Retiring In Colors Showcase - Pineapple Punch Bee Birthday Card - Lost File
Publish Date:
3/31/2020
I cannot believe that I forgot to publish this article. Pineapple Punch is one of my favorite retiring 2020 in colors. I used the same daisy foil (which is free through the end of today - March 31) for my Call Me Clover card as well.
This card uses the honeycomb and bee dies from the Mini catalog's Honey Bee bundle. I colored a variety of the small daisies using light and dark Pineapple Punch Blends markers. I then colored the bees using the same markers.
The sentiment is from Grace's Garden and I used the Stitched So Sweetly dies to build a two layer focal which frames the words nicely. A large silver metallic trim bow finishes the card.
Matting dimensions:
- Base: 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2"
- Pineapple Punch mat: 3 3/4" x 5"
- Foil background: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

As I was rummaging through my Call Me Clover cardstock, I found a leftover holiday dry embossed background that has had copper applied to it. Since this foil dsp has copper/rose gold and silver I thought I would see if it was a match, and boy was it!
I took a deep breath and crumpled the foil in to a ball a couple of times, tore the edges and applied dimensionals under it in places to...

Now this card was so, so easy to make. I took more time fussing over ideas than actually cutting and assembling. I am quite the slow crafter and I had all the bits ready to go in under fifteen minutes, including the fussy cut sentiment!
I love how a strong pattern DSP can carry the weight of a card for those times when I don't have much time to create a fancy card. Some would argue that...

This second card is alot like the first. To change it up, this card is horizontal, and it uses the scalloped border (yesterday's used the negative of this border). I kept the sentiment simple and think I could have added a mat or two like yesterday's card, but I wanted to show that it also works to keep sentiments small and simple.
I did use a different technique to color the foil...
