I'm hosting the challenge this month at CAS Mix Up and it's a Stencil one - use your stencil over patterned paper.
There's a couple of video links over on the CAS Mix Up blog to give you some ideas and of course you can see what the rest of the talented team have done to inspire you! There's also some guidelines for the challenges in general.
Wild Honey (very apt!) sponged over a honeycomb stencil to create my finished background.
The bee is from the stamp set that came with the Magazine. After watercolouring I used a liberal helping of Glossy Accent over his body and applied some very fine glitter to his wings.
For a change I used some hammered textured cardstock instead of my usual bright white - I like it!
The sentiment is from MFT.
The CAS Mix Up rules are over on the challenge blog - have a look!

I love this card Viv, and the paper has worked really well with its yellow pattern and your yellow honeycomb stencilling over the top looks great and the added bee on his own little bit of honeycomb works brilliantly...a terrific card. x
Wonderful card Viv. Love the honeycomb over your fabulous patterned paper. I think this technique will be very addictive! Loving the bee perched on a separate piece of honeycomb. :) Perfect sentiment! xx
That was a great choice of paper for your honeycomb stencil. Love the result and the effect of the hammered paper xx
Lovely card Viv, stencilling over the patterned paper is very effective.

Stencilling on patterned paper has certainly worked well here and your choice of colours and stamp is perfect. Another technique to try as there's no shortage of patterned papers here 🤣
Beeutiful card, love the Bee and stencilled honeycombs.

I don't think Iv'e used a stencil over patterned paper before. At least not intentionally. That's a great idea and an inspiring theme and your card turned out lovely.
This is lovely Viv. The stencilled honeycomb looks fab over the patterned paper, and I love the little bee!
