Festive Friday #109 - World Bee Day
It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.
This week’s challenge FF #109 - World Bee Day
Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!
For my card today I used flowers, bees and twine from the Inspo List. It features the Stampin' Up!® Honeybee Home Bundle along with the Heart & Home Designer Series Paper. I love how this card turned out!

This is gorgeous, Melva. I love your design. The DSP is gorgeous and so elegant. I love the solid band across the middle and the elements that you added to complete your design. Beautiful creation.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful in blue, Melva! The elegant designer paper serves as a gorgeous backdrop for the circle, with its simple floral die cut, and the bee. This is a wonderful layout!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. Love the DSP and layout.
ReplyDeleteLove the soft blues and your card is a beautiful showcase of that paper too.
ReplyDeleteMelva, I love that you went with the blue and white and the touch of grey . Your design perfectly highlights that gorgeous DSP and I love the touch of the bee! Fabulous card
