Birthday Bee

I've created this bee themed birthday card using lots and lots of hexagons and a sprinkling of shimmer!

The sparkly gold card has a lovely shimmer and the dark brown overlaid hexagons are the perfect contrast.

I've cut the cardbase with the fold on the top left edge which I've found makes the card stand up much better than a top edge tent fold.
