Bumble Bee Blossom by SheepSki Designs for Little Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge #265 on the 2nd of November, 2025

Hi All!

Welcome to my post about my card for challenge #265, the 2nd of November 2025 challenge for the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.

Prize is 3 images

I chose Bumble Bee Blossom, which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and coloured with the following Copics markers:

• yellow - Y11, Y15, YR23
• black - C3, C5, C7, C9
• wings - V91, V95
• pink - RV00, RV63, RV66
• green - YG23, YG25, YG17
• blue - B0000, B000, B00, B01
• outline B16

I then die cut the image using Scalloped Squares Die from La-La Land Crafts. As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.

Here is a close up of the colouring before adhering to the card:

I also used a paper Say it with Flowers Paper Pack from La-La Land Crafts, that is now discontinued. I adhered the paper to a white square card from Envelope Solutions, then adhered the coloured image.

Here is another photo of the card:
