What's black&white with a splash of yellow?

Happy Friday!

I've been a rogue card-maker all week, not creating anything for any challenge... time to join in some fun!  I'm entering this card into the current PDCC - black and white, with a splash of mustard yellow.  (I have 2 splashes, hope that's ok!)



I'm slowly making my way through all of these CSS critters.  The bee is so cute!  I couldn't help but combine a few CSS stamps to make this "way to BEE!" card.



 I used some background sets, black distress ink, and a sponge to create these faux-washi strips.



The cute critter was cut 1x out of vellum, and 1x out of cardstock.  I purposefully cut off his wings on the cardstock layer, so that the vellum ones could take center-stage.

Thanks for popping by!




Supply list: 
Stamps used: (all CSS): taglines: critters, background basics 1, flower garden, au naturel (for the word bee), PTI: simple alphabet

  1. This card is so cute--and that's saying a lot because I normally avoid bees!

  3. So fun! Love that faux washi. But especially love the bee in mustard. Nice change/tweak from the bright stuff often seen. The vellum is the perfect touch. You clever bee!
