Thank you using "How can I resist" tutorial and a giveaway! :)

June over at Betty Bee's Buzz created a wonderful tutorial for Monday Motivation as to how one can use heat embossing to accomplish a resist effect. She also gave other techniques on how to resist without heat embossing even siting a crayon example! I thought it was fabulous! Head on over to her post here and check it out! :)

Now we honey bees get to elaborate on her tutorial by incorporating it into our Wednesday posts. My Wednesday post will actually have resist technique as well, so I am posting this one a little early. :) 

Recipe:
Paper: Cosmo Cricket: Earth Love: Repeat™, Cosmo Cricket: Nutmeg: Maple™
Card Stock: Paper Trey Ink™
Ribbon: Paper Trey Ink™
Stamp: My Mind's Eye: Lost and Found: Madison Avenue "Pretty" Stamps™
Embossing Powder: a la Mode™
Sentiment: Tiny Type Letters by Cosmo Cricket™
Tree Sticker: EAD Designs Fall Harvest™
Embossing: A2 Script Texture Emboss Folder™
What look like mini brads: Imaginisce Glam Rocks - Pearl
Imaginisce iRock

Now fly on by to Betty Bee's Buzz to see what the Monday Motivation was and don't forget to follow (there is a giveaway going on right now) and then stop by again tomorrow to see what the rest of the honey bees are up to! :)

This card also qualifies for my friend Kim's challenge over at Off the wall Craftiness. Here is the inspiration photo:

Hmm.... I just noticed that I got over 200 followers! Thank you so much for liking me that much. I am going to give away a paper pack donated by my sponsor at Pumpkin Spice!!! There is a LARGE amount or paper in this pack and I will get the details/a picture for you later. 

Just leave a comment on this post (and become a follower if you like me - but not required) and tell me which of the honey bee's projects you like the best! :) I'm sick, so I won't give a time exactly when I will draw, but it will be soon. :)
