Bee Mine - Canadian Die Cut Card Layout Challenge

This is the card I made for the card layout challenge, and at the same time give you a sneak peak of one of the stamps from the new catalogue coming out in June.

The base cardstock is Hello Honey, layered with Whisper White, and then English Garden DSP.
Each bee was stamped 3 times on Whisper White - each one facing a different direction.  They were coloured with a blender pen and ink pads.
Each bee was punched out using the 1 3/8" square punch, and matted with 1 5/8" square Hello Honey cardstock.  Before matting , some dots were stamped in Hello Honey (at the head end) using the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.
To make the bees wings more 3D, each bee was stamped 3 times with Versa Mark on Vellum cardstock and embossed with black embossing powder.  The wings were cut out and adhered to the original bee.  Then, using Dazzling Details and a blender pen some glitter was applied to the wings.


A piece of Hello Honey satin ribbon was adhered near the top of the card, and a bow attached using a glue dot.
Each bee unit was attached to the left card front.  The middle one was attached with dimensionals.
Above the bow the sentiment "Bee Mine" was stamped on Whisper White, punched out with a 3/4" circle punch, layered onto a Window punchie in Hello Honey and then a small oval punchie in Crumb Cake,
