I Love today's challenge, use tape !! I've covered my printer paper with 3 stripes of white duct tape, then embossed with an emboss/die cut folder, then sponged over first with DOX, then with StazOn, and last with a black wax crayon, the bees are stamped first on the tape then on paper and cut only the body and wings to make them 3D, the letters are die cut out of black linen covered with repairing tape, and gold mirror covered with repairing tape.

Didn't you get creative this morning! I think the background looks fantastic, and the feel of it with the smooth tape and textured embossing must be marvellous. Great idea with the repair tape with the fibres in it - I never thought about that but it adds a great look. Mind you - it's hard to find in the stores here, so I tend to be very miserly with that one . This makes me smile because at the moment there are so many big fat bumblebees buzzing around.

All of your creative uses of tape look fabulous on your card, Anita! Love how some of the honeycombs were die cut from your background and the texture of the repairing tape!

What a cool idea with the duct tape....you are one of the most creative people here, Anita. When I grow up, I want to be you, especially the living in France part. Ha.
