Queen B

Monday Monday.... The Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge this week is Anything Goes....  

Here is my project:
I also created this for an art swap where the challenge included an arch, window and the color Periwinkle.  I started with the beautiful Memory Box paper in the background.  The next layer was the window die from Memory Box with a stamped music background (Memory Box) and distressing using Ranger Distress Inks.  I accented the lovely lady (Ephemera) with the stamped wasps and the Queen B.

A little different effort for me but I like trying new things to shake up my creativity.

Thanks for stopping by!

Suzz...this is amazing! I love all of the bling...it looks like the pattern that the bee would have taken during it's flight! :) Your window die cut is so cool! I love the Victorian lady who is looking out of the window! Love the lavender colors you've used on this beautiful ATC! I sure wish I'd signed up for that swap!!! :) Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy

Fabulous project. I love that window die - it was already on my list! I love all the elements and I agree with Candy, the bling swirls look like the bee trails. A really super composition and the colour is lush! Elaine x
