Beehive Easel Card

Do you like cards that are different?  Check out this Beehive Easel Card...

This card was so easy to assemble.  The Beehive is a Design Space file I created and cut out using the Cricut Maker.   The Bee is available at  Bee Stamp and Thin Cuts.
Cut 2 bees from vellum
Cut 1 bee from cardstock
Cut out the Beehive Easel Card from Design Space

To make a 3D Bee:
Cut the wings off of the cardstock
Fold Vellum bee in half and trim out the wings
Adhere the vellum wings to the cardstock bee.  This will give a lot of dimension.

Sponge the beehive panels.
Layer the beehive panels onto the beehive base.
Adhere the beehive base to the easel card only applying adhesive to the beehive base.
Add bee and sentiment
