Bee Happy

The lovely and talented Kim Coulter used this adorable bee on front of our menu folder at a demonstrator event we had this past January.  I showed the menu (plus all the other charming things Kim made for this event) to my customers and they asked to make The Bee.  It was something I had in my mind all year but I just hadn’t really got around to it.  When the new 2014-2015 Annual Catalog was released, I saw a stamp from the Sweet Stuff stamp set that just called out for The Bee.  Here’s what I camp up with:

Sentimental Journey

Here’s a man card for ya.  The Feeling Sentimental stamp set is my absolute favorite from this year’s Sale-a-bration collection.  The images bring back some fond memories. 

On this card I used the Night of Navy Classic Ink Pad and applied ink directly onto the top side of the embossing folder.  Then I inserted the Crumb Cake layer and ran it through the Big Shot.  Love how this turned out.
