Hey Stampers!! I’m excited to show you the Inside the Lines Bumble Bee Card, featuring the DSP Inside the Lines from the Sale A Bration catalog. Along with the Metallic Ribbon from the Sale – A- Bration Catalog. Let’s not forget the Dragonfly Dreams Bundle, and the Watercolor pencils from the Occasions Catalog.

This is actually a very relaxing card to make. They say that coloring with pencils, markers, or crayons can be very cathartic for the mind. Well, I have 2 young children and anything I do relax, I will do it.

So as we get started making the this card, I want to remind you that if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.

Happy Crafting!
