How could I make a card without my Cuttlebug and Grand Calibur...love them. Also, I use my stencils and scissors quite often. Scissors cut out my bee and flower.
CT0515-Over My Head is the theme for the May Fan Club Challenge. I've had a few bees swarm over my head, haven't you? Scaaary!

Oh, how beautiful, Brenda, and I agree - just love your background! I love your bee especially (even though I don't love them - allergic!). And I agree with you - just love my die-cutting machine and scissors for fussy cutting! Fabulous card, sweet friend!

So pretty -- great colors! I agree about the bees flying over your head. There is a very persistent wasp who keeps making a nest right over my front door. As many times as we brush it away, he/she always comes back! Your bee is so much prettier than my wasp.

Fabulous colours, fantastic bee.
My vivid bee memory is from when we had a hive in the garden, and my mother didn't give them enough smoke one day when she was doing something. They literally started attacking the house - we had to run around shutting all the windows as fast as we could. Give me bumblebees instead!!!

I've actually put a Solitary Bee house in my garden this spring but I haven't noticed anyone moving in yet. I miss the bees. :-( ...but I love the one on your card! Those lovely bright colours have led her right to your gorgeous bloom. Super card!
