The layered bees with the vellum wings are adorable and so is the sentiment! Your second card is such a colourful and fun layering of patterned paper along with your cute hand-drawn jar (great work!), and the poor bee stuck inside. So happy to hear they it was later released and is doing fine. :) xx<br />Lollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15327427055906881318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-70736442852769349242019-06-12T19:04:59.709-07:002019-06-12T19:04:59.709-07:00OMG I LOVE both of your cards and the jar is just ...OMG I LOVE both of your cards and the jar is just AMAZING!

They are both summery and delightfully designed, Leslie! I love how you offset the honeycomb and that you cleverly used a chicken wire stamp to make it. I have a little chicken wire stamp, too, and I always think of honeycomb when I look at it; now I'm going to use it that way! I love how you gave your plump bees those gossamer wings ... brilliant! And go you for being artistic and drawing your own jar! I think it's awesome and I envy your ability! I love the unhappy look on the "bug's" face knowing her friend is ill and I'm glad to hear that both the recipient and the bee will be out and about in good health soon!!
