Whimsical Bee Card

 Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday to you all! Today I'm sharing a super sweet card I made using Cheery Lynn Designs darling dies. LOVE this super sweet Whimsical Bee die, and she works perfectly with the sweet Daisy strip die. I really enjoyed making this darling card. Of course I always seem to take forever choosing design papers, not sure why, maybe due to the fact that I own way too much of it.....LOL hehehhe that could be one reason, but I'm so funny about picking my design papers first, and doing all my layers, then cutting all my dies.

Anyways, I chose an OLD design paper I bought years back, and its from All my memories 2005 , I bought it in 2006 though, crazy right, well I bought a lot of it, as I really loved this collection, so I pulled it out and figured I would use the yellows and blacks in it, and leave out the reds and pinks. Next I had already picked out all the dies I wanted to use on my card. I love Cheery Lynns flower strips, they are so easy to use, and make flower making super fast, so I made up the daisies.
Cheery Lynn Designs Dies used:
Whimsical Bee B800- Cut in black, and then added yellow card stock to the back , next I added some stickles to give some glitz to my sweet bee.
Flourish Frame B888- cut in white card stock, its behind the whimsical Bee
Daisy Strip B259- Cut in white, ran through machine just 1 time, and then dusted them in a yellow ink. I did use the hot glue gun to glue them together, and to add a white embellishment from Really Reasonable Ribbon to the center of each flower.
Flourish #3- was also cut in white and then dabbed with 2 different club scrap greens.
Page Tabs B567- was cut in the coordinating yellow card stock that was used to layer my card layers, then I stamped a sentiment from Lifes a Garden , Pink by design stamp set. I also added some black dots using a black pen.
Ribbons are from Really Reasonable Ribbon
 I really enjoyed spending some time crafting and making this card to share today. Hope you enjoyed my short post, and have a lovely week!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Such a sweet, whimsical card - love all the layers and of course, your signature stitching! It gives so much added texture to your cards. I always enjoy your card posts, pretty cards and very informative tips. Thanks for sharing.

Such a cute card! I don't usually like using black (Halloween is the only exception), but this card is just too cute to ignore! Love the stitching element and the checkered ribbon bow...nice!
