I caved and got some Copic markers (DH very kindly paid for them for Mother's Day). I only got 25 colors but I already need more. What have I got myself into??? LOL. Anyway, this is only the second time I've had a play with these markers, so I'm very much at the beginning of the learning curve - but man, they're fun!
I went hunting for a stamp set that required coloring and found this one, which is so cute! Everytime I see these little bees, it reminds me of The Bee Movie, which I love. I dry embossed the base with a woodgrain EF and made sure to match the wood-graining on my Chocolate Chip scallops as well for continuity.
Thanks for looking.

What a "sweet" card! Love the bees and great job on the colouring. Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
Karren I know what you mean about copics! Very very addictive and such fun to use. I've had mine for a little longer than you and I'm still learning to use them properly lol.
Terrific card, love all that sunny yellow! Thanks so much for joining our very first challenge at Addicted to Stamps. Hope you come back and play again soon.
Hi Karren! You're in trouble now! Copics are like potato chips - you can't have just one, or two or three or ...! Ha! That's a very cute image! And now you'll have to buy more images to color .. I know cause that's what happened to me! Thanks for playing with us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Oh my gosh, this card is so adorable. Love the colors, embossing, but especially love the colored image. And those of us who have Copics know the feeling of not just wanting, but NEEDING all of them! :) Thanks for sharing with us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!

Such a cute card....good luck on your addiction to Copics.....and it will turn into an addiction! Thanks for playing with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Thank you so much for sharing your bright creation with us at Addicted to Stamps! I can only echo what the others have said about markers being addictive. There's always another pen that would be just the right shade you're looking for! This is a smashing card - I think yellow monochromatic is really hard to get right so I'm really impressed!
