Happy Friday, Friends! To go along with the current new Memory Box Challenge #37 to use Insects, Butterflies, or Dragonflies on your projects, I created this card:

I had fun watercoloring my die cuts again! The Honeycomb Square was die cut from watercolor paper I colored with gold metallic watercolor … it has such pretty golden shimmer! The beautiful Intricate Bee was watercolored with with yellow and light black, to help keep it soft and subtle. The bee's wings were watercolored with a white/silver mixture and the cut-outs left/held in place by placing foam mounting tape under them.

The background was created by die cutting the Hex Collage out of adhesive stencil material and using it as a stencil to apply aqua watercolor onto a watercolor paper panel. Finally, leftover black watercolor was flicked onto the background and the Bee Yourself sentiment stamped in Memento Gray Flannel.
I hope you'll join us in this month's Memory Box Challenge and create your own Insect/Butterfly/Dragonfly project!
