Bee-utiful Square Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #332 whose parameters were a square card, excited colors, country element and frame(s) as random. I used Relatively Thoughtful’s Craft Challenge – The Wonderful Life of Bees free digital papers and Paper Discovery Card Builder Die Set to create this card.

Cardbase: Print the two pages of Relatively Thoughtful’s Craft Challenge – The Wonderful Life of Bees free digital papers onto two sheets of white cardstock. (I printed the two pages back-to-back on one sheet of cardstock as well as a single-sided page of elements.) Cut the three decorative patterned paper apart. Fold the blue sunflower paper in half and trim down to 4×4-inch cardbase. Cut the striped paper to fit the front and back card panels.

Lattice Framed Square & Decorations: Using the Paper Discovery Card Builder set’s smallest lattice square die, cut one square from the yellow paper. Glue to card front. Fussy cut two sunflowers and one bee from element page. Adhere large sunflower and bee to card front and smaller flower to card back.

Tag In Pocket: Cut the two tags from the element page and glue together. punch hole and add some ribbon.Cut a 1×3.875-inch piece of clear plastic (I up-cycled some packaging). Using .25-inch wide double-sided tape on three sides of the plastic, attach pocket to left inside panel of the card.

Sentiments: The “Bee Sweet” sentiment is from the element page of the paper collection. Fussy cut the sentiment and glue to tag.
