Bees and blooms


 Good morning, it's the first Sunday of the month so time for a challenge over at We Love Stamping.

The theme for July is SUMMERTIME or Anything Goes.

There are 2 fabulous prizes, Lavinia Stamps and watercolours.



I used several Lavinia stamps to create my card, Bumble and Hum, Flower Divine and Forest Creeper, the background is Distress Oxide Inks and a honeycomb stencil, I also used a sunray stencil but doesn't show up very well. The sentiment is a sticker. 

Check out the challenge blog for full details of how to play along and to enjoy some beautiful summery creations from the rest of the ladies.

Thanks for visiting- have a good day.

Chris
