I honestly don't like bees at all. Not sure why, exactly, I've been stung by bees on several occasions and it is not that terrible in the big scheme of things. I just don't like them.

Stamps Used: Rubber Stampede "Bee," Savvystamps "Thank You Trail"
I can't wait to see your BEE cards (I hope they are cute bee images)! Be sure to link up your card by noon on Monday (Central time). You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check out their blogs, too!
