Brandy's challenge is "Celebrate with Circles!"

With so many wonderful circle dies from Stampin' Up!, your creativity is endless!

For my "Hello There" card, I used Stampin' Up! Fluffiest Friends & Softly Sophisticated Stamp Sets, Stylish Shapes & Fluffiest Friends Dies and Bee Mine DSP.

I began with my card base using Sweet Sorbet cardstock. The bees image was stamped on Petal Pink cardstock with Petal Pink ink and adhered onto the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

All the circles were die cut using Stylish Shapes Dies.

The center circles were layered together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered in the center of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

The cute little cat image is from the Fluffiest Friends Stamp Set. The cat was stamped with Memento ink and colored with Wild Wheat, Sweet Sorbet, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive & Petal Pink Stampin' Blends Markers, die cut and adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from Softly Sophisticated Stamp Set, using Sweet Sorbet ink, trimmed and flagged on the left and tucked behind the cat image.

Linen Thread was looped twice and adhered behind the cat.

Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers (the flowers were used) were adhered as the finishing touches on the card.

DSP was also added on the envelope flap.

Inside my card is a layer of Petal Pink cardstock with the bees image stamped with Petal Pink ink around the edges.

The flowers were stamped with Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.
