Whimsy & Stars Studio - Bee Happy

Hello and welcome to the Whimsy and Stars Studio March blog hop.  The design team will be showing off TWO new adorable images, Spring Bees and Welcome Spring.   

 

If you arrive here from  the Whimsy & Stars Studio blog, you are on the right track.  If you are just joining us, you may want to start at the first stop on the hop, the Whimsy & Stars Studio blog, so you don’t miss out on anything.    Don’t forget to leave a comment at each stop for your chance to win!  Two random winners will win a digital image of their choice from the Whimsy and Stars Studio store.  

 

For my project I used the new image, Spring Bees.    Aren’t  they sweet?   My card design was inspired by an old Deconstructed Sketch.  I added a few layers, stitching, and some of my favorite October Afternoon papers to make a cheery card.
