I recently bought a fantastic new punch - Fiskars' large hexagon punch, which was the inspiration for this rather belated birthday card. I knew I wanted to have some fun playing around with my new toy and naturally when one thinks of hexagons, one tends to think of honeycombs. A little play on words with the bee theme and I was off!
I kept the background a simple cream with some mist and gold lame spatters and a machine stitched, wobbly border. For the hexies I used a bold geometric print paper. Next I stamped the sentiment directly onto the background and finally layered up my bee sticker plus some gold sequins and rhinestones to suggest glittering honey. And of course the little bee needed some whimsical flight lines.
Oh, and I couldn't resist adding in a little 'Hope you had a 'sweet' birthday' in the sentiment. ;)
