Honey Bee bundle: How to attach the honeycomb die to your projects

 
When it came to pre-ordering from this Spring/Summer catalogue, I went a bit mad. Not in a “buy everything” way, but in a “buy a load of stuff I don’t really like and ignore the sets I love” kind of a way.

Consequently, I ignored the beautiful Honey Bee bundle until recently when, really, it should have been at the top of my list. I've always been drawn to bee stamps and had them in my collection almost from day one. As I don't keep anything that isn’t current, I was bee-less, so I'm more than happy to have this on my shelf.

And it seems I'm not alone, as I presented this card at my Stampy Buffet, where it proved to be the most popular project of the day by far, with some of the ladies making three of them. I hope you think it’s the bee’s knees, too.
To attach the very fine honeycomb die-cut, you can either use wet glue, gently applied to the back with a sponge, or carefully tape it behind the aperture. Both ways are quite fiddly as it's only just big enough - but it's worth the effort.
