Big bear hugs

  



   This month's Send A Smile 4 Kids challenge has the theme of summer fun.
   I have used Doodle Pantry's Honey Bear Birdie set for my card. I matted the design paper onto white card and then edged it using black peel off strips. After colouring the image using Promarkers I cut it out using a Spellbinders square die and ran a black pen around the edges. I then matted it onto a piece of black card which I had cut using a Spellbinders scalloped square die placing it at an angle. Using a Tattered Lace beautiful bee die I cut a bee which I coloured using Promarkers and attached it to the top right hand corner of the card. Finally I added glitter to the wings of the die cut bee and to those in the main image.

   I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
   Crafty Catz - anything goes with make us smile
