More Bees

 Morning and time for the mid month post for the Birds/Bees/Butterflies challenge at Stamping Sensations.

I went with Bees once again-surprise, surprise lol. I used a stamp set from The Graphic Fairy, a Bee cut from a Hero Arts die, sentiment cut from a p, paper and the background strips are recycled packaging from some jars of honey my Daughter bought me.
