The bees in the Pink and Main stamp set are so darn cute that I just had to use them to make this birthday card (B-day...get it?) I started this card by cutting the base from a 12x12 sheet of golden yellow card stock using the Sizzix Royal Flip-its die set. This die partially cuts out the cartouche shape and scores the fold lines.
The printed panels of cute bees and honey comb designs were die cut from Doodlebug Designs 12x12 paper. Pink and Main bees were stamped on heavy white marker paper, colored with Copic pens, die cut with Pink and Main dies, and adhered to the card with pop-up foam dots.
The Bee Happy and Happy Bee-Day words were stamped on the die cut daisy print (Echo Park) cartouches with black ink. Then they were heat embossed with gold sparkle embossing powder before they were attached to the card. For a floral touch, tiny daisy flowers from Japan were glued to the bottom of the card and two larger daisies (Essentials) were glued back to back on the corner of the cartouche. Finally, Doodlebug Designs Sprinkle yellow dots were glued to the center of the larger daisies. Oh yes, I gave the bees sparkly wings with a bit of Stickles (star dust). This card was super simple to create and will surely add some happ-Bee-ness to someone's Bee-day. There are so many bee related craft products at HM Ben Franklin Crafts, that I'm sure you'll find just what you need to create something Bee-u-ti-ful !
