day 180 - handstamped bee coasters

handstamped bee coasters

bought some paper coasters a while back from Etsy.  got out my Papertrey Ink's Honey Bees set and stamped everything in StazOn Black.  then colored the bees in yellow with a permanent marker. 

oh, all the sentiments are from the same set, except the "you're the bees knees" is from another set.  i'll have to find it and check the info on that one.

day 179 - handstamped bee gift tags

more bees for the Swap-bot swap, "Octobuzz."

handstamped bee gift tags

punched out yellow and red cardstock using circle and scalloped circle paper punches, the bee is from Papertrey Ink's Honey Bees set, the "to:" and "from:" stamps are from Inkadinkado Holiday Tag Set that i got from Crafty Steals.  everything is stamped in black ink.  punched a small hole in the top above the bee using a cropadile and strung a yellow and white bakers twine to the tag.
