How to make a bee using the Ladybug Builder Punch

Check out this little bumblebee.
 
Who has the Ladybug Builder Punch!
Well- you will need it to make this cute bumblebee too!

 
How did I make it?
 
I used the Black & White Striped DSP from the upcoming 
All Together DSP that will be available to order on 2/1/22. 
 
1.  Punch out bee lower body with Ladybug Builder Punch.
 2.  I colored the 3 white stripes on the DSP, using my Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blend.
3. Cut a 1 1/2" strip of vellum.
I LIGHTLY scored it at 1/4" along the edge & folded it.
Then punched out the wings.
 
MAKE sure that you line it up as shown in the photo,
as you want it folded when you punch
& you don't want to go too far in to punch thru your fold.
4.  See photos below on how I used my scissors & trimmed the body & the wings.
5.  Now I added adhesive to the back side of the bee stripes & stuck the 
folded vellum tab onto it.  
 
6.  Now add the stripped bee/wings part to the bee body!
7.  I used my Wink of Stella & put that over the Vellum wings. 
NOTE:  It would be easier if I did this before I stuck them onto the bee body.
 So what do you think?
So easy huh!

NOTE:  If you do not have any Black & White stripped DSP 
you could just cut narrow 1/8" yellow card stock strips & make them that way.
 
I hope you have a great Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!
