Just Buzzing Around by Helen Chilton

 

My project this week started off with this Craftyboard bee that was left over from a show sample a while back. i decided to use it on a 6x6 journal page that I stencilled with Texture Paste and then painted in red and orange.

I added some text stamping in Archival ink.

Then I overstencilled the hexagons with some of this Calambour paste...

and added a touch of gold paste on top.

The bee was coloured with Ranger Enamels, but you could also use thick paint covered with Gloss Gel.

I added a bit more stamping from the same set as before.

And finished with this abstract flower embellishment covered in the blue and gold pastes...

...and some cogs in the corners.

I hope you've enjoyed this project!
