Pun Intended Bee Day Card! DOstamper challenge for 7-21-16

This week we have a newer challenge category:

For this Product Spotlight we are working with the Host(ess) sets! I picked "Pun Intended" for its many images. Now I know that some people don't like puns, but words and their use/misuse is fun for my family. Spoonerisms, (purposely used) incorrect grammar, words out of context, play on words etc. is a real HOOT! (We are probably just over-educated). Though it does keep us in good humor.

Personally, I have been calling it "B" Day for a long time, since most calendar squares are too small to write the whole word = Birthday.

Here is my offering:

 

The "Happy Bee Day" stamp was done in Whisper White, covered with white embossing powder. Then I punched it out with the Fox Builder punch using the body oval. The hive, is supposed to resemble a layered cake, but when I went to put the candles on top, I found that only one of my current sets had a candle = "Bella & Friends". The candle was too small to use on its own, so I stamped the whole cupcake, then fussy cut it, and used half of a Dimensional to lift it up onto a 1" Pool Party "glow" circle. The 3/4" and 1/2" strips are Daffodil Delight, and textured with the "Softly Falling" TIEF. The strips are corner rounded on the top sides, and then placed with Dimensionals, onto a Basic Black triangle. Ta Daa! A beehive cake. Any of these fine products can be purchased in my on-line store. Just click the "Shop Now" button at the top of this blog.
