Hi everyone! I'm really excited to kick off a fun event sponsored by Honey Bee Stamps! For the next 12 Days, 12 different card designers will be featuring awesome stamp sets from Honey Bee. There will be discounts and sales and all kinds of fun stuff! CLICK HERE to go to the Honey Bee Blog to see more for the next couple of weeks! I'm very happy that I get to be day number one! Yahooooo.
I am seriously loving everything coming from the Honey Bee store lately. I've been buying every new release! Such fun designs – cheerful, happy, and great for coloring. Today I'm featuring three stamp sets: Build A Bee, Tea Time, and Bee-you-tiful Sentiments. I made a card that will be perfect to send some cheer to a friend's mailbox!
I started with an A2 card base from Kraft Cardstock. Then I layered bright yellow, and then bright white! I added a piece of gingham paper from my stash to look like a napkin for my little scene. I love yellow – any time of year. Next I stamped the coffee cup, the cupcake, the lemon, and the bee and die cut them out with the matching dies. I colored the images with Copic Markers in cheery colors. See the steam coming off the coffee? That's actually a die that is supposed to be a trail behind the bee! I thought it would look good this way!
After I colored in everything, I added shimmer by using a glue pen and Hero Arts superfine glitter (my favorite glitter)! The bee is on a wobble! So he is really buzzing by! The sentiments are so cool – you can mix and match any words you want and place them exactly where you want them.
If you haven't tried Wobbles – you need to! They are so much fun! I used the Mini Wobbles for the beeeeee. It's a little plastic coil that has adhesive on both ends. You attach one end to the object and the other end to the card. Then it wobbles! EEK! It lays perfectly flat for mailing.
Here it is in action! I can't stop! LOL
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today, and thanks to Melissa. Lisa, and the Honey Bee team for inviting me to be part of the 12 Designers of Christmas! Make sure to check back tomorrow for the next guest designer on the Honey Bee Blog! If you're new to my blog this week, welcome! XOXO

Hi Wanda- darling card! As usual your creative eye saw a new way to use something- love the die you used over the coffee! And I am off to buy some of the superfine glitter. Cannot get the look I want sometimes with other glitter products. Have a lovely weekend! Julie L

I love this, Wanda! I love the extra interest you added – the bouncy bee is so cute, and using the die in a different way is super helpful!
