Be happy



   I love the colour combination of yellow and black so I just had to use those colours with this digi called 'bee digi 7' from Scrapper's delight. I immediately thought of honeycomb so decided to make a hexagonal card.
   Using  a tattered Lace hexagonal die I cut a piece of yellow core'dinations cardstock. I cut an aperture using a smaller die and then embossed the card using the Tattered Lace hexagonal lattice die. I then dusted it with distress ink. I coloured the digi image using Promarkers and inserted it in the aperture before matting and layering onto black and then white card.
   The sentiment was cut from black card using the elegant alphabet and all occasion Tattered Lace dies. Finally I added the bumble bee cut again from black card using the Tattered Lace beautiful bee die.

   I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
   Crafty Friends - in the garden

  11. This is such a charming little piece! I really love how you tied in so many bee elements-- even down to the hexagon shapes that you used! And you've given your main bee such a fun setting. I love the scene that you created and enjoyed seeing your card so much. Thank you for sharing your skills with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
