Bee Amazing

Hi everyone!

We're heading into the second half of our Dream Factory challenge

 

The Beekeeper

Create something with BEES on it

Stamping, masking, stenciling, coloring—I had so much fun making this card!

The bees (Katzelkraft) are actually flies, but with the right colors, they do look quite bee-like, don't they?

After stamping the basket (Studo Light) and the flowers (IndigoBlu), I masked the hole thing and stenciled the background with Peacock Feathers (Distress Oxide) using a stencil from Craft Sensations. 

After that, I stamped the bees and colored everything with alcohol ink markers. The honeycomb-like part of the basket I brushed with Fossilized Amber (Distress Oxide) and Spiced Marmalade (Distress Ink). 

Finally, I stamped and embossed the sentiment and glued it on. I really like how it turned out!

Thanks for stopping by!
