Favourite Tulips with Honey Bee Stamps

 


Hi there!  Of all the flowers out there, I think tulips are my all time favourite.  I love their colour, shape, and how they usher in Spring with vibrance.  I decided to pick up the Lovely Layers:  Tulips Honey Cuts from Honey Bee Stamps because the dies are so realistic and give you 3 options of size of bloom to play with, and cut multiples layers of the flowers for wonderful realism.  



Coral coloured tulips are some of the ones I most gravitate to, so I used a few shade of coral cardstock to cut the layers, then ink blended on the layers to give added depth.  While also adding in a few textural details by adding coloured pencil in the die lines.  I also added in some bluebells from the Lovely Layers:  Wildflowers Honey Cuts, because they make a great contrast in colour to the coral tulips, and their petite size adds extra interest.

The background is ink blended with Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink, with water splatters, and I cut a small section of white lattice for the bottom section of the card for texture.
