Coneflowers

The CCEE Stampers have a new challenge starting today and, as hostess this month, Cindy Haffner asked that we do a card using three (3) embellishments. Mine are ribbon, pearls, and a buzzing bee that I've had on my craft table for a while. I forgot where I got the bee but I think it was a stamp I colored and cut out. I'm using a Splitcoaststampers sketch from challenge SC377.

This is a Flourishes image from the stamp set, With Gratitude.  These flowers look just like the coneflowers I grow. I have some in pink and some in orange.  I'll be glad when they are blooming because it will be very warm by then, rather hot.
