One Layer Cone Flowers

Welcome!  I have a similar but different card  with Coneflowers that I posted earlier. Again, I printed the Power Poppy digital Easy Breezy Coneflower on GKD white heavy weight CS and colored it with Copics.  I used this paper because Copics do not bleed through and I can make it one layer.  I stamped a Bee from MFP with black ink and colored with a yellow marker and a Clear Star Pen for some glitter on the wings. Finished with GKD sentiment in Memento Green ink.

Bee Well

Another Post

I just finished a card for Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge with a theme of bees...I captured 3 views of bees on a sunflower.   I stamped the image a couple of times and die cut 3 circles showing the bees up close.  The images were stamped with black ink and colored with Copics.  Added some glitter to the wings with a Clear Star pen.  Used an embossed (CB EF Wickerweave) Yellow CS for the background and Rust card base.  Added Green Satin ribbon with the sentiment.  Stamps are all old ones from MFP sets but I do not have the names. 

Challenges:
Tuesday Morning Sketches: #464 shown below

Double D Challenges: Theme is Don't Bug Me.  We are to use bugs on our cards.

The House That Stamps Built: DCC81 Circles.  Usually use Repeat Impressions stamps for THTSB but thought this fit challenge.

Bee Happy

Hello!  I am  trying to enter some of June's challenges before time runs out.  Making up for some time that I missed making cards lately.  And I did have some problems with cards automatically showing on Facebook via Net Work Blogs but that seems to have been corrected.

This card is made with Power Poppy Pure Prairie Bouquet digital stamp.  After printing the image I colored with Copics and simply placed on a Green CS mat and a base of Purple CS.  I threaded the ribbon through slits and tied into a bow before attaching to the mat.  I stamped the Power Poppy sentiment from Geraniums set with SU Always Artichoke ink. Since I wanted a bee on my card I printed just the bee from PP Bees in Foxglove digital set ....fussy cut, colored and glued to the finish card. It would have been easier if I had thought to print the bee with the image of the bouquet but I like doing things the hard way!  Thought I needed that Bee with Be Happy sentiment.

Hexagons are Trendy

One more quick post for today. I have been trying to come up with a card for the challenge at Simon Says Stamp challenge to make a trendy card using NEON,  HEXAGON or CHEVRON.  I finally decided to use some DP with a hexagon design and remembered a stamp that I have with a honey comb design. I came up with this card using the hexagon paper  for paper piecing a house stamp that I have never used. So this was a mix of some old paper, some old stamps, and a new stamp. Had to add in the bee beecause when I think of hexagons, I think of bees. I stamped the walk with a honey comb stamp.
