I know that is a strange title for my post. But, I created a card that I intended to use for my PPA post until my critics said they liked the bunny card just a bit more than this one.
I like the dramatic contrast of colors in this card. I have always been a fan of black & yellow combinations on a card. And, with the bee, it was just natural to go with that color scheme.
A small square of Pool Party c.s. embossed with the Honeycomb Embossing Folder softens the look of my card.
The bumble bee is stamped, colored and cut out with an Oval Framelit. I also stamped the bee on Vellum Cardstock with Black Staz On Ink. After is was dry, I snipped the wings and attached them with Glue Dots to my main image.
The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped with Memento Black Ink & banner cut. A few Regal Candy Dots give the banner some color.
My black mat is embossed but it is tough to tell on the other pictures. Here is a close up.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Hugs,

STAMPIN' UP! SUPPLIES USED:
I love this card! It is cute and eye catching! Love that little bumblebee.
I do love the bunny and you did a fantastic job on it yesterday. That card makes me smile or laugh this card is just as nice but a softer emotion from me. This card makes me go ahhhhhhh! Nice job on both cards and they both are keepers.
This is adorable, Ginger! I love the colors you used!!
The bunny was adorable, but this card is also adorable. I’m glad you showed the emboss on the black cardstock. This card has a lot of work in it and it shows too! Love the adorable baby bumble bee. Good job!
It’s the bee’s knees! Now, can anyone tell me what that means? My mom and grandma used say that and I had never really thought about it. Are their knees cute or do bees even have them? Sorry, I just had to throw that out there! This IS one cute card! Calmer in motion and color than the bunny but still brings a smile out! Loving all that texture and soft colors. Wonderful job once again!
