Elevate Your Valentine’s Day Gifting

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to express your love than with a handmade touch? Transform the Bee Mine Square Pillow boxes into delightful gifts that truly stand out. Join me as I share two fantastic coloring techniques that will add a touch of pizzazz to your Valentine’s presents, featuring the charming “Bee Mine” Suite Collection.

To start, gather your Bee Mine 12″x12″ DSP and choose a color scheme that resonates with the Valentine’s theme. Using the brayer technique, paint onto the Bee Mine Square Pillow boxes. Using the Bee Mine Stamp set – use coordinating colors to personalize the design.

Sweet Sorbet Accents – Integrate the Sweet Sorbet Bordered Ribbon into your design to add texture and a pop of color. Wrap the ribbon around the pillow box, creating a lovely border or bow. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a tactile element to your gift. Experiment with different ribbons such as Gingham and Pool Paper ribbon and find the perfect combination that suits your style.

Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers – No Valentine’s Day gift is complete without some heartfelt embellishments. The Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers from the “bee mine” Suite Collection are perfect for this. Strategically place these charming details on your pillow box tags to create a romantic and whimsical look. The adhesive backing ensures a secure attachment, making it easy to achieve a polished finish.

Share the Love – Once you’ve applied these two coloring techniques and added the delightful accessories from the “bee mine” Suite Collection, your Bee Mine Square Pillow boxes will be ready to spread joy and love on Valentine’s Day. Whether you’re gifting to a significant other, a friend, or family member, these personalized creations will surely make their heart skip a beat.

Remember, the key to a successful DIY project is to let your creativity flow. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different color combinations and placements until you find the perfect look that captures the essence of your affection.

Bee Mine Square Pillow Boxes “extraordinaire“!

Create vivid square pillow boxes that coordinate with the Bee Mine Suite Collection using (1) Brayer Coloring and the (2) DSP techniques.
TECHNIQUE #1: Use the new Brayer, Sponge Daubers and the Bee Mine stamps to add vivid color and striking contrasts. Using the DSP images ‘fussy cut’ to complement the sentiment. I also demonstrate how to stamp the sentiment to fit the tag using a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker.
TECHNIQUE #2: DSP with coordinating Sweet Sorbet Ribbon and easy tag using happy Bee from the DSP. I used retired HEART PUNCHES for the tag and embellished with the Adhesive Backed Hearts & Flowers.
Using POOL PARTY as an accent color contrast perfectly with the Sweet Sorbet flowered DSP. I used retired Glimmer Paper in POOL PARTY to punch the heart with the Bee Mine Punch.
Black & White Gingham Ribbon pairs perfectly with the Sweet Sorbet DSP and bee.
I found some retired Gingham Ribbon in BUMBLEBEE to embellish this “honey” of a box!
The little bee says it all….cut from the DSP…and with the Heart shapes…just takes your project to the next level of “cuteness”.
