I see there is already a Queen Bee at the party, so I wouldn't want to upstage her here with mine... perhaps they can co-exist? My queen, Betty, brought her butterfly friend, Barbara (named after my mommy).
My card feels sorta unfinished.... I started it the other day, but ran out of steam... maybe at a later date I will add some more or move around the images.
I like to make my cards functional.... This card is for my Mommy, Yellobug60, she is really not feeling well. She is going to try to make it to the tea party this week. I purposely used mostly all stuff she gave me (flower, paper, sizzix, etc.) She is such a good Mommy!

Maureen, your card doesn't need anything else: it is so cute and perfect as is! I love your flourished bee die and butterfly die, and the yellow flower is a great embellishment!
I'm sorry your mom isn't feeling well. Give her my best. I hope she does feel well enough to join us at the party this week.

I am so sorry your mom isn't feeling so good - I hope she makes it to the tea-party. I am sure it would cheer her up - laughter is a good medicine.
I think if we have two queens, one of them will go off with a swarm and set up a new hive, so we'd better get an empty hive ready quick. I just love that big bright happy flower with the brad.

Awww....what a heartfelt post! I am so sorry to hear that Barb is not feeling well....I hope that she is able to make it to the tea party but I know its best for her to just rest and relax! What a wonderful thoughtful thing to send her this card! It is so precious....and your butterfly is the perfect little mate for Betty!
So glad you were able to come! I always look forward to your cards...and your moms! Your bee is one of the more fancy schmancy bees with her filagree wings!

Your bee and butterfly look so pretty. They both seem to BEE heading in the direction of that BEE-U-tiful flower. I hope they know how to share. I am sorry your mom isn't feeling well. I'm sending a cyber hug to her now.

A little tea with honey, and maybe a touch of something a tad stronger, would be the best medicine for your not feeling so well mommy. Hope she makes it to the party. WE all promise to be on our best bee-haver. Your card is very pretty. Love your queen bee with her friend. Your flower is eye popping pretty. Awesome card. TFS :0)
