The challenge over on the Allsorts blog this week is Insects, Bugs, Bees and Butterflies and as I had this wonderful bee stamp from Indigo Blu sitting on my work space waiting to be used it would have been rude not to join in. I started with an A 5 card black which I rounded the corners off. Next I blended a background using distress inks and a stencil that looked like honeycomb (I think this came from Bee Crafty but there are so many similar ones out there it's hard to remember) . I then stamped the bee and added the flowers, which came from Inkylicious at the bottom and a sentiment , that came from Chocolate Baroque at the top. I stamped the bee out again on a piece of scrap and coloured it with sparkle pens after fussy cutting it out. I then used a little glue gel just to lift it slightly off of the card. I also added a little highlighting with a white gel pen.
Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Beautiful bright card!
He is superb and you can really see the 3D effect on your card. Glad he is not real though and buzzing around! Lol. Hugs Mrs A.
A fabulous card Sue and I love the dimension of the Bee. Everything works together so well and I love the honeycomb background. I also like how you’ve used the Fantasy Dandelions which look so bold, they add a real touch of drama x
A super card Sue, a gorgeous bee and flowers - a fabulous design.
