Honey Bee

The weather today is pleasant with some blue sky and a little sunshine which is certainly helping the winter along and certainly makes the days look a bit lighter.  Today's card was made using stamps from the Honey Bee set by Chocolate Baroque, colouring done with Coloursoft pencils. Background paper which seems to be just the right colour was from my oddments box and has been overstamped. I decided to leave this card without a greeting so that it could be used for any occasion.

  7. Love the colour combo on this Val - especially the overstamped backing paper. Great idea.

  8. Your soft colouring of the stamped image is lovely in the way it picks up the colours of the backing paper & that's a lovely touch with the overstamping. I must remember to use that technique. The placing of the bee in the corner is a striking touch.
