Yesterday I shared a non-Valentine card using the Bee Mine Suite…today I present another trio inspired by some made by Mary Knabe.

With this technique one cuts 3 pieces of Designer Series Paper into blocks and uses one of each pattern on each of 3 cards.

Then the fun part is deciding how to decorate each one. How cute are those Adhesive-Backed (Hearts &) Flowers?

The bees are so fun to make…the little faces are so expressive!

I think this one is my favourite…adding the flowers to the circle is a fun pop of colour.
