Bee Yourself Encouragement Card

Created this Clean & Simple (CAS) encouragement card with one of the first digis I bought from StitchyBear, RSP A Perfect Meal.

Printed the pre-colored version of the digi on light blue cardstock and cut out with a Spellbinder. Stamped off the top with Paper & Such Chicken Wire (that I call Honeycomb) to complement the Bees buzzing above the Bear.

Used scrap piece of Kraft cardstock for base. Stamped an encouragement sentiment "Bee Yourself." Added some scrap ribbon.
