Busy as Bees

This will be a super busy week.  I guess that's why I thought of bees for the Less is More Challenge.  This week the challenge is a......
SKETCH.


Here is what I did....


This is such a simple card, but it took four tries to get the bees right without any smudges.  Then it took two tries to get the sentiment straight!

Thank you so much for the lovely challenge Mandi & Chrissie and for all the wonderful inspiration from the LIMettes!

Stamps:  Nature Walk, Three Little Words

Good job with the sketch, Bonnie (even through all the travails of crooked sentiments and the like!). Why is clean and simple not always so simple? :)
