I think my center piece ended up a bit bigger than the sketch... I'm blaming the kids. I can't get anything done with them home. Yah, the kids *wink*.

I used the stamp set called Just Bugz (love this set). The bee has Black Eyeliner Sparkly Fluff on his body, and Cosmo Crystal Glitter on his wings. I used my Sakura Quickie Glue Pen to adhere both. Oh man.. guess what the mailman brought me? MORE BLING. I'm SO addicted to those silly little Rhinestone blingie things. I can't help myself... I HAVE to stick them on my cards. The paper is new from My Mind's Eye, the ribbon is from American Crafts, and the tiny little pink brad is from Bazzill. I got them at Memories of Time, here in Coos Bay... oh man, Michelle carries SO many brads. I'm on a mission to own them all. I love brads! The flowers are popped up on Jody's Foam Dots, and I used my Stampin'Up Word Window Punch for the sentiment. Oh, and of course I made those eyes and little dotted trail pop with my Black Sakura Glaze Pen.The cardstock is the new In Color Raspberry one from Stampin'Up! All the coloring is all done with Copic Markers.

My parents took all the kids plus friends up to the lake, so I have a day to myself to get some work done, then tomorrow we join everyone for 4th of July celebrations. Hope your weekend is wonderful! Thanks for stoppin' by. Happy 4th!
