Cute Bee Flower Birthday Card

Created this card using a BugABoo digi, Cute Bee Flower

Used a sketch that you can see below.
 
Used Stampin' Up Honeycomb embossing folder. Used Darcie's stamp sentiment. Used a Martha Stewart punch to represent the Sun and to hide some glitter oops. Used stickles Gold & enamel accents black for faux stitching.

Misplaced one of my Spellbinder Hexagon dies and it just happened to be the size I needed to cut the sentiment tag so I used a previous scrap cut and cut what I needed with scissors.

Added a wobble to back of Bee.
