This may look like a summer card, but it was inspired by the amount of insects, bees and especially bumblebees I've been seeing. When I visited my aunt last week we had lunch in the conservatory with the doors open, and she had to rescue at least 3 bumbles with her butterfly net and let them back out again.
5 3/4" square base, layers of Bazzill.
Images were stamped with black for the flower and bees and green for the leaves with LOTS of masking. Spare bees stamped on another scrap of paper. All colouring was done with H2Os. The bees have just their wings popped up - originally I had the whole bees popped up but I didn't like the look, so I took them off, stuck the bodies to the card and added foam under the wings. Stickles for shimmer, and a sentiment to finish it off.
