When you think of bees, you usually think of Daffodil Delight or Crushed Curry, right? Well, get ready to think outside the hive!

For this year’s Valentine’s Day card, I decided to try something completely different with the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set and Bee Builder Punch. I’ve never made a pink bee before, but as soon as I stamped the first one, I knew I was onto something special.

The result? Possibly the cutest bees I have ever created. They are sweet, sassy, and perfect for a “gal-entine” or anyone who loves a pop of pink.
