This One is for Doris

Over in the *new* A Muse Lounge (click here and look for it right under the top scalloped line), a stamper named Doris asked for some ideas for using the Marvy flower punches. I had this idea in my head to make but it took me forever to get the time to sit and do it and then photograph it.

I very carefully inked up the "be" part, then stamped it, added the extra "e" by hand, cleaned the stamp and added "mine" to it. Since I have the large flower, I slightly folded up the petals so I could stamp the little bees.

I hope everyone has a great weekend ahead of them. My kids have lots going on, so my stamping time will be late in the day. I have some Operation Hero Mail cards that I want to do (a New Year's Resolution to make cards more often for deployed soldiers) and a swap to get ready to mail and some other super secret stuff... I've got lots to do!

card info: notecard, sentiment, bee, ribbon and paper by A Muse, Spica glitter pen, black fineliner, pop dot.

What a clever card Elena! I love how you added the extra "e" to the sentiment. Hopefully Doris will get some great inspiration from this :)
