Allsorts Challenge #852

 The theme for the Allsorts challenge this time has been chosen by Ellie and it is **Blooms and/or Bees** with of course the *anything goes* option.  Prize this time is from Buddly Crafts and you can see more details on the Allsorts post..  

I was reminded recently of an idea using circles so decided to re-visit the technique for my card this time.  I'm not sure if it has an actual title but I think of it as 'swirly circles'.  Circles in three colours and of different sizes are required and they are cut in half and laid out to form this design.  I then die cut and coloured some flowers and a couple of bees, adding a sentiment and that's my card finished.  


Flowers and Bees - die sets from Craft Addiction UK
Circles - cut from some pieces of  long retired Stampin Up design papers

  3. It's a great use of the circle design. I never did get around to making a card using this when it was all the rage a while ago. The addition of the flowers and bees make for a pretty card.

  5. It turned out so beautifully and a really fun design. I've been wanting to try this sketch for some time but haven't gotten to it yet.
