    Melissa,
    I have a question, "what is a gypsy"? You have made a very pretty card, embossing, distressing sponging and who knows what other touches.
    Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful artwork with us this week. We LOVE seeing all your creations.
    Blessings,

      A Gypsy is a hand-held device sort of like a gaming device that is used with the Cricut die cutting machine to layout the project before cutting.

    I'm loving all these bees on your blog, now if they we're real that's another story.

    Your card is so pretty, I love the color of the flowers. Maybe one of your bees will pollinate them.
    Thanks for playing with us at Jellypark Friends.
