Double D Challenge - Bee Happy

The Double D Challenge for the next two weeks is all about the Bee'S 
Check out the inspiration board and Diane did for this one. 
As soon as you see my card, you will know what inspired me. I am anxious to see what inspired you. 


Of course, here is a prize the a random winner, but if you don't enter you have nada chance to win. 


I actually made this card a while ago, but it still makes me smile. The background reminds me of busy bees and I and glad that I used the hexagons too. Notice that I die cut the large hexagon from the background and inset the flowers and bees. Those are some very BIG bees! Probably Queens!

  6. You've blown me away again! Every detail is perfectly coordinated. The background does remind me of bees when seen in this context, and I honed in on your use of the large hexagon with the smaller which wraps up the bee theme perfectly. Love the crisp black and white background, and I've always coveted those particular daisies. Your gems are like little drops of honey. I love it ALL!
