I recently visited the World Heritage Site, Stonehenge.....
I coloured the image with Promarkers. I stamped the bees a second time, fussy cut and coloured them and layered them over the original bees just by the bodies so the wings were free, to add some dimension. The background was embossed with an Embossalicious 'Honeycomb Patchwork' e/f. I added a sentiment and two tiny punched sunflowers.
I am joining in the following challenges:
A gorgeous card Liz, like you I cannot pass a craft shop without buying something :)

I can see why you had to buy this fab Gnome, it's such a cutie. Lovely card. As for Stonehenge, it must be at least 50 years since I visited. I wonder if it's time to go again? ;D

It's changed there a lot over the years. No more touching the stones, visitors have to look from a distance now. A mini bus transports the visitors from the car park and there is an interesting exhibition in the visitors centre. xx
DeleteWhat a cute card you created, Liz. Love the image great sketch.
ReplyDeleteWould love to visit Stonehenge one day...
Thanks so much for sharing with us this week at Allsorts challenge!
I am so jealous, Liz, as I would love to visit Stonehenge and have always been fascinated by it and how it came to be. The stamp is so cute and your design really shows it off perfectly. Your punched sunflowers are just right!

Oh yes, this fabulous stamp definitely needed to be rehomed! And of course, it couldn't leave the shop without a few friends... that would have been cruel! Fabulous colouring and I love your little flying bees! Such a pretty honeycomb background too. Thanks for sharing this with us at Passion for Markers!
