Stampin’ Royalty Challenge 55

DSCF6256-2

Stampin’ Royalty’s challenge this week is to use anything with wings!  Since I already had my Nature Walk sitting on my desk, and I needed a thank you card, it was a no-brainer!  I LOVE bees---one of the main reasons I got this set---so I decided to highlight that little bee for my small 4x4 note card:

I guess I am stuck on vintage this week…..I used lots of vintage SU images, faux stitching this time instead of using my sewing machine, same seam binding technique, a couple of vellum butterflies and some pearls!  I added some Jelly Roll sparkle to the small butterfly and the bee’s wings  (which you can’t really see):
