Hello Bumblebee!

 

I'm flipping the script on the Hello Ladybug bundle and making it a Hello Bumblebee bundle!  Making the bee is so simple with either strips of yellow and black paper, drawing stripes with markers or as I did here with some Black and White striped paper that I colored with my Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends. 

The striped paper is from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack. I also used this paper for the leaves, which I punched out with the wings from the Ladybug Builder punch. I cut out a body in Basic Black, and then cut another with the striped paper, minus the head.  I punched out wings from Vellum and added a touch of sparkle with a Wink Of Stella pen.

To make the background I stamped the flower in full strength Daffodil Delight and also lighter versions by first stamping the ink off on scrap paper before stamping again on my project. I added centers to my flowers with Soft Suede. 

On the second Bee Card I really wanted white daisies so I used White Craft ink on Night of Navy paper.  If you wanted the petals very white, you could also emboss them with White Embossing Powder. I sort of liked the translucent look, so I left them as is. 






I have a video for these cards on my YouTube Channel here:
