DTGD14 Busy Bee

Photo Details

Poster: Mrs Noofy

I punched a flower and using the negative space like a stencil sponged with lavender lace. Then did the same thing with Nellie Snellen leaves. The greeting is unknown from the $tore. The bee is from an old SU set coloured with prisma pencils and OMS and a dash of glitter on the wings and flower stamens for antenna. I used a 'half' folder to emboss the top and bottom, scored between and marked with a dressmakers wheel.
