Bee My Valentine

Here's my card for today's SCS clean and simple challenge. Based on Cindy's great sketch, this bright Valentine's Day card came together in just about 15 minutes.

I stamped the Beezley the bee image from the DoodleFactory Valentine Remix set from Starving Artistamps on a scrap of white cardstock and colored the image with Copic markers. After I cut out the image, I added some Dazzling Diamonds to the bee's wings for a little sparkle.

I set the image aside while I set up the little scene panel. I stamped the "bee my valentine" sentiment along the bottom of the light blue panel in bold red ink. I added a die cut white felt cloud, extending just a bit off the edge of the panel. The bee is attached to the panel with foam tape. The completed scene is attached to a Daffodil Delight card base--matches the bee's color perfectly! I knotted a red grosgrain ribbon strip around the top of the card and cut notches in the end to complete the card. Too sweet!
