Congrats On Your New Hive

I saw a card similar to this one in one of my Paper Crafts magazine, except it was done using a stamped image.
I thought it was so cute but didn't have a stamp like it, so.......


I cut out 20 hexagons using my Cameo and a Silhouette file. I glued them on white cardstock and then took a couple that had the bees on them and popped them up for some dimension. The little bee was cut with my Cricut using the Walk In My Garden cartridge. I cut the wings with vellum, so they would be transparent. I popped the little bee up also.


I'm happy with the result.




Supplies used: cardstock - purple, white, black, yellow; vellum; patterned paper - Spring Humble Honeybee in Dear Lizzy by American Crafts; Silhouette Studio files; Walk In My Garden Cricut cartridge; font - Basque Normal; Pop Dots
