Hi Everyone - I must say that I love this little bee - I think he's a cutey!! You can find Bee Hive Larry over at Digital Delights by Louby Loo along with a lot of other great digital stamps. I wanted to make a card with Larry because when I bought my first Cricut machine several years ago, I downloaded a file to be used in Design Studio that will cut a honeycomb pattern in the card. I had always liked the file but had never used it. Kinda like alot of the "stuff" I have in my Happy Space. But I digress!
I cut this card using my Cricut Expression. The cut file uses George and Accent Essentials to cut the cardbase. I colored two of Larry and his honeycomb using Promarkers, then cut them out and pop dotted them for dimension. I added a bumble bee brad above the honeycomb. Very simple but still very cute!!
I think I'm going to make him into a Thank You card for a friend of mine. Maybe I'll put the sentiment of "Just Beeeecuz" on the outside and on the inside "You're as sweet as honey!" Too cuuutttee!!!
I've had the cut file for several years and do not remember who made the cut file and who I downloaded it from. So if it's yours, thanks so much!! If you would like the cut file, please leave me a comment and I'll send it to you!
Challenges I will enter this card in:

ReplyDeleteHi,Donna!
ReplyDeleteI would love to get the honeycomb .cut file! I had several on DS, but my computer crashed and I lost them all. So unhappy about that!!
