I loved the layout and the cheery design. Even better, I could use it for today's ways to use it theme (banners) and last week's CAS theme (birthdays). I kept Carol's overall color scheme and layout, and changed up the design a bit to use one of my newer stamp sets.
I used the scallop rectangle die to cut out a background piece from a scrap of designer paper and attached to the card front. I cut out the banner with a different die and used tape runner to attach the ribbon, wrapping the edges around the banner piece. I stamped the greeting and two bees on a scrap of white cardstock. I trimmed the edges of the sentiment piece with a paper trimmer and glued it to the banner. I colored the bees with alcohol markers and cut out with an xacto knife and glued them in place. I attached the banner to the card with foam tape.
USEIT2023: old: I got a batch of all different color ribbons from Doodlebug Design years ago and this yellow ribbon was still taped at the end, so this is the first time I used it. Also first time I used the scallop rectangle die and the Hero Arts stamp set.

You used that layout beautifully. Love the dps and those bee stamps are great. Of course, a punny sentiment always makes a card more fun. Great CASE and a Great Card.
