When I saw this week’s sketch I immediately thought of the Honey Bee Stamp Set. This was so easy to make, I just stamped the smaller bees across the card and added the “queen” bee as the focal.
Here’s the sketch from the CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge from Splitcoaststampers. It was an easy one this week.
The Honey Bee Bundle has some really cool images and nice sentiments and there are coordinating dies you can use. Unfortunately this is not orderable as a bundle until April 13 because it has been so popular. You can get the Stamp Set now if you want.
