My Time Made Easy-Bee Loved

 Hello and welcome!  I am sharing another gorgeous stamp from the Bee Loved set that My Time Made Easy is releasing today...woohoo!  This bee hive is one of the most detailed and realistic that I have ever seen...I truly love it!  It is so vibrant IRL, this set is amazing!  There is such a variety; flowers, bees, the bee hive and sentiments.  There is also a separate sentiment set that has lots of fabby BEE-loved sayings...so cute!  Be sure to pick these both up today.  I have used sponging around the edges and also stamped a honeycomb pattern at the bottom, not sure if you can see it for the lovely lace trim.  I used burlap string to tie the sentiment tag...my favorite of all the sentiments..."missing my honey".....so awesome!  Stitching, distressing and a couple of chocolate flowers complete my card.  Check out Lauren's Blog for all the details and the line up of who is peeking.  The MTME Shop for your goodies!  I hope you have a wonderful bee-loved day....enjoy!
