I created two cards, playing with the different colors and contrast. All the colors come from the current Colour Q Challenge. I substituted Real Red for Ruby Red and Coastal Cabana for Cool Caribbean because I don't have those colors that are listed in the challenge.

The first card is bold with black lines and a red mat.
Both cards were inspired by last week's sketch from Freshly Made Sketches. As you can see I offset the hexagons instead of lining them up like the circles in the sketch.

The little bee needed a touch of glimmer, so I used a gel glitter pen to add some sparkle to his wings. It doesn't show up in the picture very well, but looks nice in person.
Which card is your favorite? The bold red or soft blue?

Both lovely but I think I like the bold red the best...I'll probably change my mind tomorrow. The offset hexagons look great instead of the circles and I like the way you've brought them to the bottom edge of the card. Thanks for playing along at Colour Q this week!
really cute card...
Both are great Heather. My fave is the bold red the best! :)
I *think* I like the blue best. What a way to bring your quilting to your cards. =)
Both are nice but I like the bold red best- it pops more:)
Adorable cards - and you did such an amazing job incorporating the different challenges into one card design!
