Just Us Girls Challenge #692 - Word Week - Happy Bee-Day and Just Bee-cause (Concord and 9th, MCT, Mama Elephant)

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #692, where our lovely hostess, Lisa K, has selected BEE as this week's Word prompt. The crafting universe is buzzing with bees of late; hopefully, you'll bee playing along with us with a bee or two of your own.

Greta Hess joins us once again as our August guest designer; guaranteed her card, as well as those of my teammates, will put a smile on your face.

I've played with an assortment of papers, dies and, yes, little bees from a trio of my favourite companies. Papers and daisy are MCT; frame die, Mama Elephant; bees and sentiment, Concord & 9th. Since ME die cuts two of each square/rectangle, I 'had' to make a nearly matchy-match pair.




Looking forward to seeing how you'll BEE inspired!

Thank you for dropping by!

Bee-utiful cards, my friend! Love how bright and cheerful they are! Crafty hugs!

Love them both Carol! I had a collage frame die like this in my cart, but again didn't buy it just to pare down my order total. The sweet bees in your patterned paper and the ones you stamped do not give me the heeby-jeebies like the real ones do...yours are adorable! Great cards!

That is the sweetest bee paper, Carol. Mixing it with the honeycomb paper in the frame made such wonderful cards.

Wonderful designs for printed paper! Gotta case you when I get out of this sling--can't come soon enough!

These are both just a cute as can be! I love your mix of papers and that woodgrain backgound/die paired with that big flower with the heart center. Fabulous!
