A shaped card using The Fancy Labels Eight die. This die gives me trouble when I use the regular plates on the Cuttlebug, so to get a good cut, I have to use the longer plates. I couldn't tell you how many of this shape I have made in the past, only to have to use the smaller Labels Eight, after this fancy label didn't cut properly. Live and learn, use the longer plates when using the larger dies!
I've had this cute bee ribbon and button for a couple of years, it was perfect for this dp and challenge. I know I have another bee stamp, but I'll be darned if I can find it. It will turn up when I'm looking for something else!
Bee-lieve in the Honey and you will Bee well!

This is so cute Jennifer!!! I love how you've framed the hexagons up and then used that beautiful bow. This would be great as a gift along with some honey. :>)

Love it! That ribbon is so awesome and perfect for the challenge! Hate to hear of your trouble with your die. I can empathize, but mine is with the Romantic Rectangle large die :( Love your DP and your button bee too! The sparkle on your bees wings has me smiling! Great card Jennifer!!!

The fancy labels eight is one of my favorites and I always forget to use wax paper and end up starting another. Your honey comb dp and all the bee elements have combined for one lovely card, Jennifer!

This is so sweet(pun intended), Jennifer. The ribbon is just perfect especially being organza so none of your pretty card is hidden. The Label 8 frame is gorgeous and the honeycomb bg makes a statement. The touch of glitter on the bees' wings catches the eye. (Glad I'm not the only one who can't find THE stamp when I need it.) : )
