Playing in the challenges . . .

 Happy Friday All!

I haven't been spending much time in my crafting cave lately ... you know how it is, summer time comes with a lot of 'other' things that need tending too.  Like your outside yardwork, reunions, grad parties, weddings ... well you get the picture!

So today was a 'relatively' free day so I took the time to create something to satisfy a few challenges I spotted over on Paper Playful.  Hope you like it ...


The challenges that inspired this card are as follows:

Cut it Up Challenge #309 - CAS
Just Us Girls Challenge #737 - ATG / Stencil
Moving Along with the Times challenge #168 - CAS
The Cutie Pie Challenge #196 - Beginning with B (Blooms, Bees, Butterflies, Birthday)
Simon Says Stamps Wednesday Challenge - Beautiful Blooms
Tic Tac Toe Challenge #252 - Butterfly - Free - Bees

Product used:

Memory Box 'Texture Honey Comb' Stencil (#88521)



Altenew 'Mini Magnolia' Stamp & Die set



The Paper Studio Stick-a-bilities - Butterflies

Elizabeth Craft 'Bees' (#710)

Tombow markers were used for the coloring of the flowers & bees.
Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink was used for the stenciling
and the sentiment is an oldie but goodie by Endless Creations.
Dimensional tape was also used on two of the bees to pop them up.

I hope you have a fabulous weekend planned ahead!

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and as always . . .
