3rd Annual Sunshine IG Hop

 Hello there!  I was asked to be a part of a special hop on IG today for Skin Cancer Awareness.  It's the 3rd Annual Sunshine Hop.  I was honored to be asked to participate.  There will be 3 giveaways and our sponsor is Pretty Pink Posh.  So exciting!  So, hop along and comment at each stop along the way.  IG hop starts HERE.

So, I was inspired to use shades of yellow.  I had a really pretty floral, mixed media type stamp in my stash that I wanted to use and of course where there are flowers you have to have a bee, right?!  LOL.  Love how this one came out.  It's hard to see in the picture but I put some holographic paint on the bee's wings to make them sparkle.  It's cool in real life. 

Supplies:

Unity Stamp Co - SMAK kit - floral stamp
Unity Stamp Co - bee stamp (from a grab bag)
