Bee Lampshade

---

Here am I after summer holidays! I had fantastic time! My family came to visit me here to England. Such a beautiful moments which I'm going to keep in my heart and treasure them for ever. Hope that you had lovely summer too! 

I just put a cinnamon loaf to the oven so while waiting for this sweet buddy :0) I have some cute project to share with you.

Fiskars have some new lever punches release this year. When I sow their cute bee punch I immediately knew what is my next project! 

Step By Step Instructions: 

You will need some old lamp shade, Thin white paper, Fiskars Bee Lever punch, scissors, Letraset Promarkers, Tweezers, Strong double sided tape.

 Punch out bees from white paper. You will need a lot! 

Colour bees with yellow Letraset Promarker pen.

Add black details. 

Use strong double sided tape to adhere little bees randomly on the lampshade. Tweezers might be great help for your manipulation.

This is how you finish.

Assembly lampshade on the lamp stand.

And you done! The lamp is ready to decorate your home.

This project was designed for Fiskars UK. 

Have a beautiful day. Off to check my cinnamon loaf!

First I sew mini bags from red linen cotton then I took Memory Box Texture Stencils Mini Dots and Chick Chevron and sprayed a Glimmer Mist over to create some texture. 

I used Poppystamps Peace Love and Joy Tags dies  for the festive focal point. I die cut tags from Crate Paper and then the same tag from gold glitter cardstock. Embellished with Poppystamps Viviro Ornament snowflake and Memory Box Tiny Village houses . Matted with dotty scalloped circle and layered on the V shape panel. 

I used Poppystamps Pine Boughs dies to add some greens. Tied the bow and gold string and finished with large adhesive heart gem stones.
