I'll Bee Missing You

Hey y'all, we made it to another Friday!  I must admit I've been preoccupied with my stitching project of late because I'm on the last page of it, but I did make a couple of cards yesterday because I still have to take breaks from stitching occasionally :)  So here's the first card I made.

Check out this week's Freshly Made Sketch:

I thought of the rectangular postage stamp punch as soon as I saw it, and bees came to mind when I saw this week's Color Throwdown:

I admit I was not thrilled with this palette--I read the colors as all neutrals, but the challenge write-up called the second color yellow and that made it work better for me.  I don't like the all-neutral challenges.  I used Smoky Slate (really the patterned paper has Basic Gray on it), So Saffron, Crumb Cake (what, you don't see it?  That's what I used for the bees' legs), and Memento Tuxedo Black.

That's it for me today, cheers peeps!
