OSAT Blog Hop May Flowers


Good Morning!  Welcome to the One Stamp at a Time May Blog Hop!  I love that the weather is warming up!  This month we are having a spring fling as our theme is flowers!  

If you are joining me from Dena's blog, I am so glad you continued on.  There are so many awesome creations this month.  Please be sure to visit them all and comment to show some love.


When I think of spring time and flower blooms, I always think of the bees that help pollinate and create all these lovelies!  

With that in mind, I used the used the color theme of yellow and black.  I decided to use the Stampin 'Up set "Garden in Bloom" for this month's card creation.  

I love the soft colors that the So Saffron and Hello Honey colors add to the blooms.  I used Pear Pizzazz for the leaves and added a cute little bee to buzz around.  

This card would surely brighten someone's day.... it is just so cheery!   


          



In keeping with my color scheme and to generate a little more buzz (he...he) ....... I created a sidekick for my card.

I love this cute little bee using the Curvy Keepsake die set.  I believe this bee may have a hard time pollinating the flower on the top.

I first cut out the box from basic black card stock and added the stripes by cutting strips of So Saffron and gluing them to the sides.

I did up cycle on this card and punched the "wings" from a clear plastic cover from the front of a toy box!  I love how you can incorporate various items into creations.
