Birthday: Swirly Birds Happy BeeDay

This is another card from the Swirly Bird matching dies.  I watercolored the background, cut the vines from the Swirly Bird set, cut the bees from the Honey Bee set, and punched the flowers from scrap paper.    The sentiment is from Reverse Confetti.  I used the stitched shapes rectangles to cut the sentiment out.

Birthday: Honeycomb Bevel with Happy BEE Day

The Honeycomb Bevel dies, made by Birch Press Design, are three separate dies that fit together.  I used two yellows and black for the honeycombs.  The black made the honeycomb pop.  The bee is from SU!'s set Honey Bee.  The sentiment is from Reverse Confetti's Happy Bee Day.  The background is watercolored with watercolor powder.  Sponging added another layer of color.

Thank You: Slider Card with Honey Bee and Hive

I love the new Stampin' Up!  slider card bundle.  I used pennies rather than washers; the Sliding Star dies are a perfect fit! Even though it looks difficult, it was fairly quick and easy.
