That craft place...Dies/punches

Morning all :) Hope you are all having a lovely weekend ? and that the sun is shining for you all.

Well it is new challenge time over at That Craft Place with this weeks theme being Dies and or punches.

Here is my design team card.....





I have been thinking about doing this card for a little while, and this seemed like the perfect chance to do it.

I have used my cameo and cut the hexagons using yellow card, I then inked all the edges using my trusted Tea Dye Distress ink.
The bee and sentiment were also designed by me and cut on the Cameo, I inked the edges of the wings & the sentiment to make them stand out.
I have also used pinflair glue on the wings to make them "stand" up.
I then finished off by adding the buzz lines with black gel pen.
This was a fun card to do...although slightly tricky lining it all up.

Items used -

Silhouette Cameo (available to buy from That Craft Place)
PinFlair Glue (available to buy from That Craft Place)
Tim Holtz Distress ink Tea Dye (available to buy from That Craft Place)
White Hammered card from Papermill Direct
Black and White Card is Bazzill Basics.
Gel pen
Corner Punch (available to buy from That Craft Place)
