My Mom is still struggling from her surgery and post-surgery, serious complications. She is only showing the teeniest bit of progress every so often. Her recovery time will be 2-3 mos. and she is miserable. I thought this card might cheer her up and give her a giggle.
HOW I MADE THE CARD: I die cut my hexagon frame from the inside of a recycled box, punched out a few rows and attached to my black card base. Used scraps for all other pieces. I cut my beehive and bee, added line work to the hive. Cut b+w dp and attached. Aded beehive, filled in circle w/brown marker. Placed and attached bee, placing Scor-Tape only on the body so the wings and head would raise slightly over the hexagons. Added a few hexagons from flip side of recycled box (a Magnum ice cream bar box that has great colors.) Added natural twine. Computer generated the word "Bee-lieve" for the inside, adding a gold/white brocade-looking dp bee, as well.
Paper: MPad black, SU dp + glitter paper, recycled box (used inside and out)
Ink: SU
Accessories: Sizzix Sizzlits dies, PTI die, Scor-Tape, ? brand natural twine
THANKS for looking!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL--whether you're a Mama or "like a Mama" to kids, step-kids, neighbor kids, fur babies, fish, birds ... .
