More Bees

 Morning and time for the mid month post for the Birds/Bees/Butterflies/ATG  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.



Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

This bee-themed card is absolutely charming, Carol. The mix of stamped images, die cuts, and upcycled honey jar packaging creates such a cohesive and joyful design. I love how the hexagon shapes echo the natural geometry of a hive, and the warm yellow tones feel like summer sunshine. Your creativity always shines, and this piece is a perfect celebration of nature and thoughtful crafting.
