Paperie Ink Hap Bee Slimline Card

Oh, hi! I can't get over how cute these little bees are! And, since I didn't have a chance to use the flowers in my last card, I thought I would use them for this card . . .and what's better than a slimline card??

When Coloring Goes Wrong. Really, Really Wrong.

Oh, hi! I'm back with another collaboration with my friend, Marla from MAD About Cards & Crafts. This month we decided use some Purple Onion Designs stamps that we have in our stash.

This poor bunny of mine . . . the coloring went wrong. Really, really wrong. So I ended up cutting off his head. That sounds awful, doesn't it??

Anyway, it turned out in the end and I'm pretty happy with the card.
