Hi friends! I’m back today with a special Shana Tova (Happy New Year in Hebrew) card, for the Jewish New Year 🙂 I created it in yellow and brown colors, to match the current challenge at Color Hues! 💛🤎

The Jewish New Year begins tonight, and I needed to make some more Shana Tova cards. One of the most popular themes for Shana Tova is the “apple and honey” theme, because it’s a tradition to dip an apple slice in honey, for a sweet new year 🙂
So, when I saw that “Yellow and Brown” is the current color combination at Color Hues…
I immediately had an idea for a Shana Tova card in yellow and brown!
For my card, I used the adorable Hey Honey stamp set from Pink and Main, that was part of the SCT Magazine cardmaking event on March 2022. I used it two months ago to create this fun card:
This time, I stamped the bees in brown (Vintage Photo Distress Archival ink), and colored the bees with Fossilized Amber distress marker. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.
Then, I blended some Mustard Seed distress oxide ink on a white panel, using the little honeycomb stencil from the kit. I added a die cut Shana Tova banner in kraft, and then added the bees:
I added the panel to a kraft card base, and added a bit of shine to the wings using my clear Wink of Stella shimmer pen. It’s hard to see in the photo, but the shine really is pretty 😍
Thank you so much for stopping by today! For updates about new posts, please follow me on Instagram and Pinterest.
I wish you all a very happy new year! ❤️

I’m not unfamiliar with the holiday, but I didn’t know anything about apples dipped in honey. Your card is darling–those bees are wonderful and the honeycomb stencil is the perfect backdrop! Love your Hebrew banner, too! Thanks for joining us at Color Hues,
