I have a little bitty tutorial for you on how I colored my sweet little bee with Spectrum Noir Markers.
Step 1: Use GB8 to color the face of the bee.
Step 2: Add GB9 to the edges then go over the entire area again with GB8 to blend.
Step 3: Color every other line with GB8 and add GB9 to each edge.
Step 4: Add IG8 to all of the uncolored areas of the bee's body. Add IG9 to the edges, then to blend, add IG6 to each dark grey area.
I added some glitter to the wings and popped up the bee on the card.
the colors I used
Now it's time to HOP! Take a peek at what everyone came up with for this adorable Friends to the End stamp set and dies. Don't forget to leave some love along the way to be eligible for some fun prizes.

Flower garden for the bee to buzz around was a splendid idea.
So adorable! I will have to make several different ones to send out. I usually send out over 40. But I have been so busy(with OWH closing) I've had to skip a few holidays this year. So I need all the WOW I can get to make up. And this great kit will do the trick
