The sponsor does not provide images for us to use. 

 

 So I am using Pretty Pink Posh images for my card. I love these little fat bees. They are so cute and I have been waiting to use them. I have this background die from Paper Trey ink and thought this would be perfect for the honey comb look. I took Ranger ink and sponged till I got that honey color.. I then taped in some of the inside pieces so that it looked like some of the combs were open waiting for pollen.. I added a little brown Ranger sponging to the back ground. I used Mission water color paints on the bees and a little black Prisma colored pencil and then used the dies to cut them out. On the wings I added Spectrum Noir shimmer pen. I added the bees on foam dots. I then took Simon Says BE die and Happy die and cut it out a bunch of times and layered them to make it thicker. I then did more BE so I could cut off the E and add to the BE to make it BEE.. I was happy with how well the added E went on so it looked like one long word. I then went over the words with the Spectrum Noir pen.  I am loving those chubby little bees. I have always had a soft spot for "B"s cause my mom and dad names started with "B" and my brother and my name are "B".. and my dad would sign cards.. letters the 4 "B"s and would draw a bee..  This gave me happy memories..
