Bee Happy

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Don't forget if you want to receive notice when I post on my blog, you
will need through  Subscribe by Email on my sidebar.


This started with one of Power Poppy's beautiful digital stamps that I
colored with Copic markers.

I had a whoops and ended up fussy cutting the design to save it.

To add some interest in the corners, I used a honeycomb stencil that 
my dear friend Loll had cut with her Silhouette and sent to me.  

The flowers are popping out of the circular frame and the background
has been embossed for a bit of texture.

  2. Oh my gosh! I saw this and thought for sure you had a die! What patience you have to fussy cut that detailed image. Just WOW! Your coloring is spot on and your layout is gorgeous! I’m still in awe of the fussy cutting, particularly those bottom leaves and how tiny they are. You are amazing, Bonnie!

  3. I love this whole concept Bonnie! The honeycomb stencilling is lovely and the highlighted section details what the bees do when they're not at home! Thank you for adding the subscription form. (And a timely reminder that I must add mine asap!) Vicky x

  7. You must love fussy cutting, Bonnie, because I would have found it easier to color a new image. ;) But your bouquet looks wonderful with the stenciling, texture and circle die.
