PPC&F - Last Minute Manda - Will You Bee My Honey?

 Hello, lovelies!  I am so excited that Last Minute Manda is our sponsor at Passionate Paper Creations & Friends this week!  I absolutely love her selection of digital stamps and papers.  I had so much fun creating with Will You Bee My Honey that I created not one, but two cards to share!

I colored up all of the images in the set with Copic markers (colors listed below) and I cut them out and set them aside. 

Card 1:

For my first card, I die-cut my top panel (white) using the Honeycomb Die from Rubbernecker Stamps.  I picked this die up at the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo a month or two ago specifically for this project.  

Funny story... I had actually created my own sentiment that said You Bee You, but when I trimmed it down, I cut part of the Bee off, so I decided to just use the cute little bee as part of my sentiment. 

I layered a panel of Stampin' Up Balmy Blue and a panel of Bumblebee, followed with the die-cut white panel.  I adhered the beehive and then added some gold metallic thread before attaching the bee and sentiment.  Lastly, I added a bow from this adorable honeycomb ribbon that my best friend picked up for me.  

Card 2:

For my second card, I used the same Honeycomb Die on the upper half of my white panel.  I layered it over a panel of Stampin' Up Bumblebee Card Stock, and wrapped with the honeycomb ribbon.  

Using a Stampin' Up punch, I created several banners from different patterned papers and adhered them together in pairs, and then added them to the card front, under the ribbon and adhered the little bees.  I also created the sentiment for this card, and trimmed it down and backed it on the beautiful Pretty Peacock card stock from Stampin' Up.  I layered them on a sheet of patterned paper over a black card base. Lastly, I added a bow to the front.
