Shabby Chic Ba{bee} Card

A quick little card today using the Sweet Bee set from Cornish Heritage Farms.  I went all shabby chic with this one, using papers from Pink Paislee's Queen Bee pad and Basic Grey's Capella.  I used soft ink colors (Memento London Fog, Distress Ink in Tattered Rose and Antique Linen), some tea-dyed cotton twill, a little glitter, some crinkly ribbon, and a vintage mother of pearl button.  Oh, and some tiny pearls, a teensy safety pin, and some stitching.  This was so much fun, getting all baby girlie!
Hope you've had a fun weekend!  We're still recovering - back to crafting soon, I hope. :)
