I will start with how impressed I am with Lois aka clownmom's gallery. 2300 cards, yup.. you read that right, 2300 cards. WOW !!!! If you can't find inspiration here you can't find it anywhere.
I've never made a view master card and thought I would give it a try. I bought this beehive stamp off ebay last week, but there's no name on the wood block.
This was fun to make. I used different small stamps for the inside, I thought it would be fun to make a game of sorts to show the younger kids, What lives inside a hive. I have a dog, chair, teddy bear, turkey, pumpkin, bunny, snowman and of course the bee. This would be fun to make with a birdhouse or a dog house too.
I drew the branch with a copic liner, cut it out and popped it up.

Have a great week Lois, I hope the crown doesn't get to heavy, hugs
I changed the photo to show all the cute images when you turn the wheel of the view master.
I checked out the basic instruction for the view master here on SCS. I winged them to make it work for my card. The base of the card is black, I used a small nestie to cut a slight bigger circle then my beehive hole out of my white bg piece, then I attached the wheel to the back of the white panel with a brad. I popped this panel over the black, Then the beehive is popped over the brad. I hope this makes sense...
thanks for looking

Irene, this is just awesome! You drew the branch? Wow. And I was looking forward to seeing what stamp it was because I love it. Your leaves and flowers are placed so pretty and I love your technique and bee hive. You really topped the charts today in cardmaking. Love it!
