Bee Birthday

 

IC987 - Home is Where the Boat Is - Inspiration

For my card, I used this great stitched bee from Spellbinders. I cut the layers and added the stitching. I used silver DSM floss to the wings and they really shine with that floss.

The bee layer is a napkin from my stash of napkins that I have collected over the years and I finished the card with 2 large corner gems.

The wings and sentiment are both popped up on dimensionals.

I am hoping I can convince one of my family members to give this card to me for my birthday as I really love this bee. They ask me for cards a year in advance then give the cards to others because they forget that I tell them how much I love certain cards. LOL!

Thank you for stopping by to check out my card today. I appreciate the lovely comments. If you leave me a comment, I can stop by your blog for a visit.
