I subbed some of the smaller circles for these cute little bees and used my Just Buzzing By (SU) set. That DP was the very last tiny bit of scrap I had but it was just enough to do the top layer and punch out two circles. I used some black texture paper also. The hive was colored with Copics - as were the little bees. I added the ribbon and bow (with my Bow-Easy) and also ran a bit of black and white twine over the ribbon. A lot of buzzing bees on this card!
Anyway, I'll enter this into the sketch challenge over at Sketch Saturday, and also at Tuesday Throwdown (to use twine) and Cupcake Craft challenge (entwined).
I don't have a Funny Friday for tomorrow but will be back soon!
Thanks for stopping by...........
