IC477 Sunshine Bee

Photo Details

Poster: Crafty Julia

I was inspired by the long rectangle and sparkly star of Gold+Happy+New+Year (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vG_orFv4QD...New%2BYear.jpg) I used TCP's Hearts and Flowers for my happy bee and flower, paper pieced for more depth, and added this sentiment and banner from Taylored Expressions. Put some sparkly hearts above my cake (repurposed february birthday card from Hallmark) and finished with a yellow frame and happy face sticker.
