You Are the Bee's Knees Collage Card

"You are the bee's knees."

I wasn't sure about the meaning of this expression so I looked it up;

If something is said to be the bee's knees it is excellent - the highest quality.

Since my husband is a beekeeper, I decided to make a bee's knees greeting card.

I started with a blank Strathmore card that measures 5" by 7".

The background cardstock is from the Abandoned Paper Stash pad by Tim Holtz.

The collage elements are from the following digital junk journal kits;

I printed the digital papers and elements on my HP Photo Printer. I use the HP Instant Ink program so I never run out of printer ink.

I featured the digital stamp "Bee Mine" from Mo's Digital Pencil. I hand-colored the image with Copic Sketch markers and Winsor and Newton Promarkers/Brush markers. I cut out the image, chomped the corners and attached it to a piece of black cardstock. I then attached it to the front of the card.

I will enter this card in the following challenge;
