Karen is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and oh, I love the combo she has given us! The colors are Poppy Parade, Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody. The dessert option is to use Designer (patterned) paper.
My friend, Sue's, birthday is coming up soon, and she is a "bee" girl; she loves everything about bees, so her card from me always features them. I love this old image, and decided to pull it out for her card this year. Stamped, colored with colored pencils, added a layer of gingham Mango Melody paper, and popped the image up on foam tape.
Added a few gems and called it good!
Thanks for stopping by to take a look. You are going to love working with these colors, so show us what you've got! See you in the gallery!

Colored pencils! That is all I had when I first started stamping and now I forget to use them. Love the way you’ve blended and highlighted all the details of your image. Nicely done.

Oh, Barbara, this is so pretty! I really admire your colored pencil skills. I'm sure it took a while to color this image. It inspires me to use my pencils more. Love it!
