The fabulous SU! Hexagons Dynamic embossing folder is a perfect partner to the lovely bee stamp in the 'Dragonfly Dreams' set and that's what I used for my card. I rotated the sketch and used the layout in landscape orientation. My colour combo is So Saffron, Smoky Slate, Basic Black and Whisper White. I used Crushed Curry ink and a blender pen to colour the bees and I added subtle shimmer to the wings using a clear Wink of Stella pen. I fussy cut the bees, popped them up and added a bee charm to the ribbon.
In this photo you can see I trimmed a bit off the card front at the top and right side to echo the sketch layout design.
Here's the inside of the card and the envelope. I made this card with a specific friend in mind. It's not her birthday for many months but it's good to know the card is ready and waiting in my stash! If only I could be that prepared for all 2017 birthdays!
