As Sweet As Can Bee

Hi friends, happy weekend! I hope you had a good week and you’re gonna do something fun this weekend! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a super cute floral bouquet with a bee and a matching card. A paper thank you bouquet is an awesome way to thank someone for their kindness! I used quite a variety of our cardstock (all listed below) along with the Lori Whitlock 3D Bee Bouquet SVG cut file to make this project, and I L-O-V-E how it turned out!

I won’t go into a huge amount of detail here so be sure to see my tutorial on the CutCardStock blog to learn more. Using my Cricut Explore Air 2 and the Lori Whitlock 3D Bee Bouquet SVG cut file, I cut all the pieces from Lessebo Sunset Orange, Brick Orange, Cherry Red, Moss Green and Arctic Blue; Rubber Ducky Yellow, Mantis Green, Scottish Highlands Green, Granny Smith, Pop Tone Black Licorice, Classic Crest 80# Solar White, and Stardream Metallic Crystal cardstock. I used the print then cut function on my Cricut for the sentiment on the matching card.

As I say every time I post one of these fun projects, the assembly is always the most fun part. It’s such a joy watching them come to life! Here is one final shot of the bouquet flattened out and put in the envelope. This one was included in a bundle and I can’t wait to make the rest of them! ;)

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
