I've taken a lil artistic licence by deeming yellow to be on the spectrum of gold, I know but I'm hoping they'll forgive my cheekiness as its been so long since I was last able to take part due to a really heavy work schedule... boo hoo!
So for this fun card I used lots of intricate dies that were not nice to remove the double sided tape from especially from the glitter cardstock.
I started with the Polaroid cut from black cardstock and white copier paper so I could position and blend Distress Oxides in squeezed lemon, mustard seed and carved pumpkin through the top half.
Using a Memory Box honeycomb die I snipped into it keeping everything in a pile.
Still with the copier paper in position I stamped and heat embossed in gold some hexagons from the Hello Bluebird stamp set.
I coloured the playful bees with Prisma pencils and fussy cut them out.
The saved hexagons I placed around the card keeping everything close together. The sentiment is from the same set stamped in black and adhered using a gold staple.
I had a blast putting this happy card together :)

I also spent a bit of time making this origami butterfly bookmark...
Break time at work I like to read a few pages of my latest book but I'm loathed to take my pretty bookmarks to work as I don't want them damaged or lost, also I read at home too.
So I have a terrible habit of dog earring the pages and that gnaws on me as I love books especially passing the gift of a good book onto customers through the charity book shelf so I figured a bookmark made of paper was the perfect solution and here it is in my book...
There is a YouTube tutorial to make this butterfly HERE and its super easy :)
