Queen Bee

 

Howdy Crafters ~ I made this card using Lawn Fawn High Five Card Kit.  I really like the card kit as I am fond of bees.  I am using Lawn Fawn Patterned Pink Cardstock - Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Die- Lawn Fawn Honeycomb Stencil,  Lawn Fawn High Five Stamps and Dies, Scotch Foam Tape, Markers for coloring, distress ink and blender brush for Stencil.  I will be mailing this card to my friend Sue who is Queen Bee one and I am Queen Bee two [well that is what she calls me - Queen Bee two but we all know I am really a Queen Bee on] - LOL - we have such great laughs-- Thanks for dropping by ~ Have a blessed Day! ~ Gail Jean
