• Copper Clay cardstock cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and score at 4 1/4″ 
• Naturally Gilded Specialty Paper cut at 5 1/4″ x 4″
• Basic White cardstock cut at:

• Parakeet Party cardstock cut at 8 1/2″ x 2″
• Pecan Pie cardstock cut at 1 1/2″ x 1 1/4″

Start by stamping the adorable bear using Memento Black ink. Color using Stampin Blends colors Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake, Copper Clay, and Daffodil Delight. Die cut the leaves, tree branch, beehive, bear image and the arch for the card front. Align the arched Specialty Paper over the Basic White cardstock (5″ x 3 3/4″) but don’t adhere just yet. This is for the placement to stamp the bees and flowers. Add a little Granny Apple Green & Starry Sky ink using Blending Brushes behind and below where the bear will go. Go ahead and stamp the bees and flowers with Memento Black ink and color using Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends.

Next adhere the Basic White stamped image piece to the Copper Clay card base using liquid glue. Die cut the grass 6 times and glue together only at the bottom leaving the blades of grass free to tuck the bear in and around. Adhere the bear using Stampin Dimensionals on his upper half and attach to card front. Use Adhesive Sheets & Stampin Dimensionals for the die cut DSP and adhere to card base. Adhere tree branch, leaves and beehive using liquid glue and a Mini Dimensional at the bottom of and in back of beehive.

Stamp the bees on Basic White cardstock for the inside of card.
