Queen Bee Handbag and Sketchbook DT project for Reneabouquets

Hi crafty friends,

For this month I want to share with you another fun project I made using Items from Reneabouquets and Tonic Studios dies.

I wanted to make something ultra lush, as I would be working with the Glass Wing Queen Bees from Reneabouquets. As we all know, there is only one queen in the hive, and for this queen, a beautiful handbag and sketchbook are essential!

Here is the couple with the hexagon shaped handbag covered in a beautiful handmade flower bouquet. Each handmade flower is delicately sprinkled with Gawdie Girl Pink Chunky German Glitter Glass. Grouped along the top of the handbag are also Beautiful Board Hexagon Elements Laser Cut Chipboard pieces that are embossed in gold, and scattered with Moonstone beads. I also added layers of embossed vellum resembling honeycombs, and hand-colored roses made with a Tonic Studios stamp and alcohol markers. Underneath is a piece of Ivory Wide Floral Embroidered Lace.This will surely provide a safe landing for any queen bee!

I

Along the side of the handbag, I wanted to ensure to add a handle, so I crafted one out of gold cord, and attached it to the bag with Tonic Studios die cuts that I layered with gold and black cardstock. Small black sequins top off the faux clasps. The base is also dry embossed in a honeycomb pattern, and topped with cascading hearts created with Nuvo expanding mousse and Finnabair golden nugget effect paste. The entire thing is also sprayed in gold.

Here you can see the queen bee front and center. She tops a piece of Beautiful Board Large Stackable Honey Bee Pattern that has been altered with Finnabair golden nugget effect paste,and sprinkled with pale pink microbeads. It all rests on the hexagon embossed front of the handbag.

Take a closer look at the detail in the Glass Wing Queen Bee. They are so amazing!

Now, lets look at the sketchbook! It fits comfortably inside of the handbag, but it is also made to fit the theme very nicely. On the cover, you see another grouping, only this time I used the Beautiful Board Medium Honey Bee Chipboard. To make it cohesive, I also colored it using my Nuvo alcohol markers and Nuvo Gold marker. The decorative pieces are also sprinkled with Gawdie girl pink glitter and moonstones, and they all rest on a bed of honeycomb chipboard pieces topped with vellum honeycombs, and lovely red roses. The phrase "Inspire",and the Notebook pages are all cut using Tonic Studios dies. 

On this page, I recycled a piece of clear packaging and created a page by embossing it in a honeycomb pattern. Using a lovely stamped phrase shared by a friend, I adorned the page by framing it out with more vellum embossed pieces as well as the hand-colored roses and yet another gorgeous GlassWinged Queen Bee. In the background you can see the pages, They alternate between sketch papers and mixed media papers for a fun sketchbook.

Never forgetting the words that inspire me to create... I incorporated some scripture verses on key pages in this sketchbook. Here, I adorned the page with a piece of Beautiful Board Large Stackable Honey Bee Pattern, only this time I cut it in half to fit my page, added black embossing powder to make it shine, and sprinkled it with small moonstones. 

On this page I did the same, only here I embossed the honeycomb pattern beautiful board in gold, added moonstones and gems from my stash, and added a beautiful Proverb. 

For the last page, I decided to add a pocket. I dry embossed and stenciled the paper, then added photo corners as a decorative element. To finish, it, I added a piece of applique given to me by a sweet crafter, and altered it using gawdie girl pink glitter, pearls and gems from my stash, and a beautiful 

Reneabouquets Queen Bee Clock Charms . 

This concludes my project share, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have! Please visit the links for your convenience, and don't forget to watch the video for more details. 

Thank you for stopping by, and as always, I hope that you can Be inspired, Be Blessed!

Look For The Magic

Hi everyone! Melissa here with a design team page for Reneabouquets!  I love all the amazing things there! This photo is from free google, by A.M. Lorek. 

To make this page I applied clear gesso to Happy Accident 2 paper, by Blue Fern. I put texture paste on with a stencil, then put the layers under the photo together. I taped on cardstock underneath the image to make it stronger, below that is a lahyer of watercolors paper. At the bottom is corrugated cardboard. I had torn off most of the paper from the cardboard, and painted it with gesso. I put layers of foam core board between the layers to add dimension.

I picked out Beautiful Board (B Board), painted it with Shimmerz Paints, and topped it with Clear Rock Candy Crackle. 

To add visual interest I added micro beads, glass glitter,mica flakes,small pieces of iridescent wrap, sequins, seed beads, pearls, Swarovski crystals, glass beads,a brad,pressed flowers, moss,lichen, a 49 and Market flower, a Reneabouquets butterfly, metal from Renea,Vintaj, Prima, Tim Holtz,bling from my stash, shells, and glass pebbles. There are a few fussy cuts pieces from Prima Spring Farmhouse, and a piece of  Stamperia Alchemy paper. I used some pieces from floral picks.

I love using pressed flowers, they add delicate texture, color, and soften the even shapes of the other elements.

I dabbed on some glossy accents and then mica powder under the glass pebbles. I painted the raised areas of the texture paste with Shimmerz. 

I added Shimmerz and beads on the cardboard, and painted the edges of the layers with paint, black gesso, and swiped on gold mica powder. 

The Tim Holtz tag has Stamperia paper on it, topped with Dimensional Accents.

I dyed gauze with gold, and other pieces with a mix of green and brown. I glued on small pieces of it on the page.

I patted on gold mica powder all around on the different items, to sort of tie things together. 

Thank you so much for looking, and have a great week!
