Four Roosters and A Chicken

Sheila  at Note Songs is having a fun  Heart Of The Home Party to show off your Roos and Chickens.

I am smitten with images using bees  and when I saw  a great bee graphic from  The Graphics Fairy I knew I wanted to add it to my tray. I started with a basic tray from the craft store.
