Bee Organised

Hello Nomad friends.  I hope you are having a wonderful Saturday.  It's a bit grey and damp here so I decided to spend a bit of time in my crafty space.  I checked a few challenge requirements and made a list.  It was quite a list!!!  Being ill sure has put me behind.   So, armed with list and good intentions I started a mini craft-athon.


My first offering for the day is this little sweetie.


I got an order from Honey Bee Stamps the other day and they included a thank you postcard which had this cute image printed on the backside.  In the interests of using some stuff I decided to make it into a birthday card.  I cut the postcard into three and used some gold card as my card base.


I used Promarkers to colour the flowers and bees.   I had these spring themed dome stickers which I added to the flower centers and a metal happy birthday cake charm that I added to the flower bottom left.  I popped the middle section of the postcard up on foam dots.  Pretty cute and very pleased to have used this card and not just added it to scrap mountain!!  

Thanks for dropping by.  I'll be back soon with project #2.  Hugz
