My card today is rather sunny but as I look out of the window its pouring with rain and very windy, oh how erratic the British weather is *sigh!
Anyway a cute little bee awaits...
Isn't he fun?... he's been coloured with Prismas as with the flower and then fussy cut out and mounted with 3D foam. The panel was masked and coloured using Distress Oxides in squeezed lemonade, mustard seed and ripe persimmon and spritzed with water. I've then stamped honeycombs with Versamark and heat embossed in gold.
I've die cut the happy three times and coloured the top one to match the panel then added some clear glitter sparkle embossing powder over the top. The bee-day has been heat embossed in white and attached onto the Happy.
I know its impossible to see but there is sparkle on his little wings too, a few highlights finish my Summery Birthday card.
