Busy Bee Birthday Card...

This is my Busy Bee Birthday Card for my friend Miss Kitty.

She loves sunny days and yellow, the complete opposite of me. I love blue and grey and I love the wind.
What we have in common besides making each other laugh, is we love to make cards.

So since summer has ended and she loves the sun, I thought I would make her a Busy Bee Birthday Card to brighten up her day.

I am not usually a fan of yellow, but I found this freebie digital stamp on Meljen's Designs Website and it inspired me.

It's called Honey Bee Buckets.

She has so many cute digital stamps, stop by and take a look.

 Simple but fun and really yellow...

 The inside... I used Meljen's digital stamp again for the tiny little bees buzzing around the bee hive.
They are so adorable... I just couldn't resist...

Here is a close up of the hive and Meljen's tiny bees...



This is a very cheery and a very yellow card. Hopefully it is sunny enough to brighten up Miss Kitty's Birthday.
