House Mouse and Real Life Bees

Hi everyone!

A group of friends over on SCS have a weekly challenge. This week's challenge was to use Black, Gray or Silver, Yellow and Crystal Effects if we had it. We also were to create our own catchy sentiment. I don't have CE but I used Shimmerz (Angel's Wings) on my wings and antennaes. While you can't see the shimmer in the photo.... I sure did like how the real life bee wanted to be in this photo. He landed on my lilies as I was photographing this and I was thrilled!

I colored my image with Prisma Pencils and blended with Odor Free Mineral Spirits. The bow was made using the Bow Easy. The sentiment I came up with is on the inside and says "You couldn't BEE sweeter". I added a little bling and done. Just a fast fun one this week. I made this early this morning before I picked up my Grand Kids as I knew once they got here no stamping was going to happen here until next week! LOL! I love having them... we are having a blast!

Thanks for taking a peek!

  1. I like your little bee friend, obviously he wanted to see if he could make friends with the two bunnies masquerading as bees. And I also have to say that being on EST, if you really posted this two hours ago, you are up too late and need your rest! :) Especially if you are going to keep up with the energy those precious little ones add to a house.

  21. What cuteness! Just fabulous coloring! And what an awesome little surprise for that bee to land there in your photo, that just made me smile! Before I finished reading, I thought to myself "How long did she have to wait for a bee to land there before taking her photo?" LOL
