Wonderful Honeybee

Hey hey, y'all!  I thought I would be working today but instead I have an unexpected day off.  My plans for the day include watching the latest episode of NCIS while I stitch, and then heading upstairs to work in my craft room.  And of course laundry ;)

But first, here's one of the cards I made on Monday!

This is the maiden voyage for the Honeybee Home suite at my house, what do you think?  This is another card that I had to take 4-5 pictures before I got a semi-good one.  You can't tell but I veeeeery lightly colored the bee's wings with Pool Party and added some Wink of Stella on top. 

This is a triple challenge card, starting with The Card Concept:

While I do like the inspiration pic, I decided to only use the colors for my card today:  Garden Green, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, and Early Espresso.  My card is in the clean & layered style, which I think is my home base :)  I paired that with the sketch from Sunday Stamps:

And last up is the Festive Friday challenge:

From the list, I used flowers/plants, green, and bugs/insects.  Would "stay wonderful" count as an encouragement?

Okay, I'm going to go get started on all my crafty things :) I plan to enjoy my unexpected day off.  Hope you have a great day too!
