Buzzy Bee

Mornin' y'all!  A bit late with the blog post this morning, I drove Ryan to school and then I went to Target to get a shoe rack for the hubs and a gift card for Ryan's teacher since this is the last week of school.  Then I made an appointment for Daphne at the vet tomorrow...she's been acting a bit weird and not wanting to eat her food, which is definitely abby normal for her, so we're getting her checked out.  But for now, I managed to squeak in enough craft room time yesterday to make a card:


I had thought I would just miss out on the bee-tastic Festive Friday Challenge because I thought it ended last week, but I'm in luck, it's still on:


I have yellow, black, hexagons, bees, and flowers, so half the list.  I paired that with the Freshly Made Sketch from last week:


I used hexagons instead of circles and plopped my extra-large bee on top of the three hexagons, but I think you can see I started from the sketch.

That's it for now, peeps.  We did get our closet painted on Saturday, which took forever because I do the edge work and there's a lot of shelves in there, but it's done and looks so much brighter than before, I love it.  But now I need to get the rest of my stuff in there, I did the hangy-up stuff and some plastic drawers yesterday but I haven't refilled the shelves yet.  Fun times, I tell ya.  Cheers!

Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Pool Party, Petunia Pop

Christy, hope Daphne is OK. Nothing worse than our fur-babies when they won't eat. As for your card, I love that you paired your bees with hearts and flowers in the background. That bee winking at me with her shiny wings is just too adorable! Great sentiment, too. So glad you shared this with us at Festive Friday this week
