Here's how I was inspired:


I used the Reverse Confetti Happy Bee Day stamps and coordinating confetti cuts.  The background is the the Hello Square teamed up with the Hex Cover Panel.


The cardstock colors are Bumblebee and Midnight.  The images have been colored with copics:

Y15 | Y19
YG01 | YG03
BG10
V01 | V12
E41 | E43

I made an interior panel:


That will be adhered to the inside.  I can't wait to hop around and see how the others were inspired.  Now it is time to hop over to Anushree Vaish's blog!
