Yay!! Guest Designing at CASology Week - 97

Hi friends!! I won the Week 95 - SPLASH at CASology, lucky me :) and hence I am getting a chance to Guest Design here for a new challenge with a fun cue card - BEE. Its always fun to win and design for one of my favorite challenge :)

Once Melissa shared the cue card with me, I knew I did not want to make a bee yet showcase the cue card in some way. So I made this...
I focused on the colors, their proportion and patterns on the bee to create the focal square by masking and inking, the black stripes were hand drawn. Finally I added a vellum heart to both express the sentiment love and also the wings of a bee. The hand wrote mine and hand drew the bee trail. Easy peasy :)

The CASology challenge is very intriguing and fun, with loads of inspiration by the team. Hope you will join in the fun at CASology this week :)
Thank you so much Melissa for inviting me over and thank you everyone for stopping by and leaving me a comment!!

    Love how you made your 'bee' - you're right about the technique - there is no doubt that this is both a bee and NOT a bee! So great to have you as GD this week!

    Okay, this is just beyond brilliant, Dee! From the curvy stripes to the vellum heart all the way down to the "bee" trail to the intersecting "mine" is new, unique and downright fun! Totally love this!!! Hope you don't mind if I pin this. Bev

    Deepti!!! I am totally blown away with your card!! So creative and unique - and I think it does a stunning job of portraying the cue word =] I'm not quite sure I could pull off my own hand-drawn lines and script though - awesome!

    Oh my gorgeousness! This is the best card I've ever seen using BEE theme. Did you say "easy peasy?" No way, it's impossible for me to use my handwriting for the sentiment. I thought all the images were from stamps! Sentiment, trail, black stripe....Your card is brilliant, Deepti! Before I forgot, congratulations on your win. You deserved it!
