Grateful For You

Hello friends - I would like to enter the card below into the following challenges:

Fun with Funky Fossils FB Challenge

AllSorts #842 - AG/Create Your Own Background

Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes

Stencil Fun - Create Your Own Background

As You Like It - Cute or Elegant (and why)

I have been making an effort to create more elegant cards, because I tend to make "cute" cards and they are not always appropriate for the occasion/situation!

I created my background with lots of inks and sprays and I used a honeycomb stencil from Visible Image. The bee stamp is from Funky Fossil's Bee Geometric set, and the "pollen" coming from his behind is from the Bokeh Flowers set... hee hee  The "Grateful for You" sentiment is from an old set that I believe was from MFT. Everything was stamped with Versafine Black and embossed with clear embossing powder. I colored the bee with Copics & Stickles, fussy cut, and attached with foam dimensional tape. Peace.
