I won this stamp in a drawing at the OR/WA gathering today. I only have a couple of Stampendous stamps and I love bees. I think I like them so much because there are so many bee-u-tiful sayings you can use with them!! Needless to say, I was thrilled to get this stamp, and I was even more thrilled to use it with the Papertrey Honeybee Sentiments set.
For this sketch, I used ribbon to make the 3 strips. The ribbon is 5/8" grosgrain in Black and Sunshine with 3/8" polka dot organdy in black. The ribbons and Oregon Raindrops in the corner are from Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts.
I stamped the bees in Adirondack Pitch Black and colored using Prismas and Gamsol. I used my Versamarker on the wings and embossed with clear embossing powder for a bit of shine.
To make the photo corners, I punched 1/2 circles with SU's 1 3/8" circle punch, I then cut the 1/2 circles in half. I drew in some stitching using a .005mm pen (love, love, love good quality, super skinny pens)!! I'm a pen junkie!
