OMG, how come it's Thursday already?!!! What happened to the days in between now and Monday?!! At least it's nearly the weekend and I get to work from home tomorrow - yay!
You can't really see it from the photo, but I've put Glamour Dust on the bees on the swirls and Smooch pearlised ink on the wings, enhanced by the Dew Drops so the image pops quite a bit in real life (cos this is my virtual one, lol!). Hope you like!
Anyway, onto the card. I used this week's Sweet Stampin' challenge sketch and High Hopes' challenge to use your favourite embellishments - well I have two - dew drops and jute ribbon!
