Dimensions:
Basic Black 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
Daffodil Delight 3 3/4 x 10 1/2, scored at 5 1/4*
Beautifully Penned DSP 3 1/2 x 5
Basic White 3 1/2 x 5
*Note: when cutting the Daffodil Delight cardstock to the 10 1/2 size, cut off in 1/4 inch strips. Use these for the stripes on the bees.
Adhere the DSP to one side of the folded Daffodil Delight piece. Using Tear & Tape, adhere this to the Basic Black.
With the Beautiful Shapes dies, cut out three honey comb pieces in Daffodil Delight. I used the 2nd to the largest and then one smaller than that.
Run the honey comb through the Cut & Emboss machine with the Hive 3D embossing folder. Color parts of the honey combs with the blending brush and Daffodil Delight ink pad.
With the ladybug punch, punch out two bodies from Basic Black.
With the saved strips of Daffodil Delight, add then to the ladybug body. Use which ever adhesive you prefer. Once dry, trim the edges off with the paper snips.
Cut out two sets of wings from the Vellum. Adhere with either liquid glue. Let dry.
Using Tear & Tape, adhere the honey combs to the card front.
Wrap the ribbon around and tie in a bow or knot.
Add the bees to the front with Dimensionals.
On a scrap strip of Basic White, no more than 1/4 inch wide, stamp the sentiment in Memento. Cut the angle with Paper Snips. Adhere to the card by tucking one end under the bee.
On the inside Basic White, stamp some flowers in Daffodil Delight and the sentiment in Memento Black. Adhere to the card.
