You've just gotta love these little fellas...they are so simple, yet so effective. I know I've said it before but I find it so amazing that an artist can draw a circle , put to well placed dots on it, and create a charming little face with such character. I know that if I was to do that I would just end up with something resembling a bowling ball!
As you can see, I have kept it really simple for this card. After all, when you're making a bunch of thank you cards you need to be able to knock 'em out quick!
I have coloured the bees very simply with my Spectrum Noirs and added stickler glitter to their wings for a bit of sparkle. The greeting is from my 'staple' greeting stamp set which I always keep close to hand...it's from Personal Impressions.
Finally I have done a bot of doodling to create a frame with a fine black marker pen.
Here's another similar card that I made using just one bee this time (sorry about the rubbish picture!)
