Feel Better

My 6 year old niece had a terrible accident and had a door shut on her finger, and when she pulled it out it broke the bone at the end of her finger and ripped the nail off the bed, all of which required surgery to fix!!! So to help her feel better I made this card for her and sent her some things in the post.

Just Bee You!

I'm playing along with this month's progressive challenge over at Simply B Facebook page. This months fun image had a recipe of a Black/White/Yellow colour combo, at least 1 DP, at least 1 ribbon and finally some embossing (either wet or dry - I used a hexagon stencil and some white embossing powder to create some 'honeycomb'). This is what I came up with.
