Paso a paso

1. 

   Cut a 15 cm square card base from white cardstock and fold it in half to create a gatefold format. Score and fold the card to ensure crisp edges.

2. 

   Select coordinating patterned paper from the paper pad. Cut pieces to cover the front panels of the gatefold card. The yellow polka dot pattern works well for this bee-themed design.

3. 

   Use the hex matrix stencil to apply yellow ink to the inside left panel of the card, creating a hexagon pattern that fades as it goes down.

4. 

   Position the hex matrix stencil higher up on the yellow patterned panel. Apply embossing ink through the stencil to create a pattern with fewer hexagons at the top.

5. Apply blue glitter embossing powder over the embossing ink on your stencilled hexagon pattern. Heat emboss using a heat tool to set the powder and create a sparkly, dimensional finish. ▶ watch 38:45

7. 

   Cut out a circle of bee-patterned paper to fit behind the honeycomb die-cut circle. Position the paper behind the die-cut to show the bees through the hexagonal openings.

Consejos del programa

• The ply embellishments are so lightweight they won't add bulk to your card.
• You can colour ply by scooping an ink pad across the surface without needing to paint it.
• The hex matrix stencil has a gradient pattern that becomes less dense further down, so you can position it at different heights for varying densities of colour.
