I had fun working with the bokeh technique. I added the 3 colors randomly and when dry, used a sponge dauber, craft white & stencils to add the circles. This was mounted on a curry matting and popped up. I stamped the Verve sentiment, added 2 heart sequins and matted in green and popped up. The bee was water colored using diamonds for the wings. I used the subtle ef for the green panel and added curry baker's twine to the top. This was a thank you for a bee flag banner and pole from my youngest son & his gf, so I just had to use a bee on my card! The hearts represent each of them. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

That is a wonderful bokeh background, Roberta! And such a pretty card for your son and his gf. Lovely, I like the added touch of the two hearts to represent them.

This is such a fabulous background for a Bumble bee. It looks like the bee is in front of a garden of beautiful flowers with drops of dew on them. You know, how a background goes out of focus when you focus on the bee. Every bit of this is gorgeous with a capital G!!!
