Don’t Worry… “Bee” Happy
Good morning! I want to thank everyone for all the birthday wishes yesterday! So sweet! Thank you!!!!
I’ve been wanting to use this little stamp by Stampendous from their “Bee Happy” collection and Julia’s challenge today is to be inspired by music! Woohoo! I have a dear friend who is often telling me “Don’t worry, be happy” and even though that song drives me nuts, it kind of has a special meaning now. If I hear it on the radio, I’m not “quite” as quick to change the station. (But I still can’t listen to the whole song. And as I’m reaching for the radio button, I know my friend is laughing too.
) So anyway, I’m kind of carrying over the theme from yesterday’s post…what others see, may not necessarily be what *I* see.
Little Secret
This little bug is called “Bee Secret.” (I’m not sure why it’s called BEE secret…I’ve never seen a bee with spots, but that’s the title on the stamp. Regardless, I think it’s adorable.) But a little bug keeping a secret is not the first thing that came into my mind when I saw this cute image.

THIS was my first thought when I saw the bug. She is feeling kind of green…but she’s still cute!

Cute card! I’m going to have to case it for my ggson (9 y/o) - he loves that song and he set it as the ringtone on my cell so that I know it’s him calling me!

Happy Belated Birthday to you!!!
That bee is adorable! I wondered about the spots too…like it is a cross between the bees and the ladybugs? lol…whatever the reason….they are adorable!
Your cards are so cute. Love the colours you used!
I just love the little sick bug. That is my type of humor. Great job with it, and the colors are fantastic. I sure enjoy watching your blog. Thanks for the inspiration.
These are so cute and I LOVE your interpretation of all these stamps. You are so original and you make it all work so well. I’m afraid that song will now be stuck in my head too!
These are SOOO cute!
how cute! When I read your title, I thought it would be “blowing kisses”….guess I was wrong! LOL.
I love the bees too, but thankfully I already have those. Whew!
Super cute cards! I love the fun colors and your fab coloring!!
Michele, how adorable is this? You have done an amazing job with your coloring!
