Colour Creations 2020 #6 - Bumblebee

Our sixth colour we are focusing on for the colour collections blog hop is "bumblebee" from the 2020 - 2022 in color collection. I have chosen bubblebee, merry merlot and flirty flamingo from the colour coach to work with today for my creation. 

I found today's colour challenge very hard to work with. Probably because of the trio of colours I had chosen but from the #stampinupcolor coach they seemed to be the easier ones for me to work with. After much deliberation and false starts I came up with today's card.
I have created a pencil from the bubblebee cardstock with the flirty flamingo for the eraser and the merry merlot for the pencil colour. I also added in silver foil for the metal edge of the eraser and crumb cake for the base of the pencil. 
My lined paper is a free download from here.
I used the well written dies to spell thank you and used my paper snips to alter thanks, into thank.
The bumble splotch is the oil spill look from geared up garage and the merry merlot dots are from comfort and hope stamp sets.


Inside card - I've used massive thanks on the inside as I love the wonderful variety of thank you sentiments it has. I went with a fairly general thank you sentiment as I have no need for this thank you card and plan on giving it away to someone who can give it to someone deserving. I think it is wonderfully suited to a teacher/childcare worker etc.
