queen bee Click image to enlarge Designer: Lisa Storms Bees are a fun theme for spring! Bee punches and honeycomb textures are perfect for Mother's Day (Queen Bee) and showers (Mother-to-Bee or Bride-to-Bee). You would never guess these lacy flowers started as the Conjunction Junction punch. I love finding alternate uses for my punches to get the most out of them. Difficulty rating

1. Punch six Conjunction Junction punches for each flower and trim off top and bottom tabs with scissors. Punch one circle for each flower.
2. Place a mini glue dot at both ends of each Junction punch. 3. Adhere first three punches around circle, bending to fit as shown. Place last three punches at center overlapping and adhere button at center.
