I stamped Darby and Bumbles on Neenah Classic Crest Super smooth 80# card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch markers.  YG 90’s for the greens,  YR12,14,18 for the orange,  y11, 15 for the bee,  E21,34,37 for her hair, E50, 000,00,01,R00, R20 for her skin.  oh,  don’t forget the grays…W0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and the sky B0000, 000, 00, 01.

The pattern paper is Basic Grey Mellow.  The grass is a new Martha Stewart punch.  Not sure where the ribbon came from but guessing it’s American Crafts.  Button is Making Memories.

I used the elongated rectangles nestabilities dies behind Darby and EK Success circle punches for Bumble!

“You Make me smile” is a Hero Arts stamps, stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.  Every thing is edged with the ink blending tool and distress ink.

I used my new Martha Stewart score board to score the Bazzill card-stock card base!!!!  oh my,  I LOVE it!  I know,  sounds silly but the most basic  tools give the most professional look!  I don’t like the bone folder that came with it…very flimsy,  but it works perfect with my teflon bone folder!  Love it!

Some other great challenge blogs I’m linking my card to…

Here’s a close up of Darby and Bumbles…hope she makes you smile!
