Bee Card

A dear friend moved away.  We sometimes scrapbooked together and other times went shopping together for scrapbooking and stamping supplies.  One of those shopping trips was relatively recent, and I bought some bee themed stamp sets.  I also bought a honeycomb embossing folder.  We had gone to Hobby Lobby first where I bought a bunch of paper packs and some canvas ribbon for stamping on.  I already had some canvas bought from JoAnn Fabrics, so instead of the canvas ribbon, I cut and frayed a piece from my fabric piece.  Then I stamped on it with a stamp by Hero Arts (Art of the Card set).  The bee stamps I used are from two of Darcie's clear stamp sets (Day Is Sweet and BEEutiful).  The filigree brad in the center of the flower on the canvas is from Close to My Heart.  I used Copics to color the canvas.

For the inside, I stamped a few bees and wrote a corny little verse on the computer to go with the theme.

The card meant more to her because she recognized the stamps used as ones I had bought on our recent shopping trip.
