Here are some pictures. The daisy is one I digitized using another design as a pattern. Very simple. Didn't want it to look too real because the bugs weren't. The bee on the flower was taken from another design that someone had shared on the net. I deleted the original flower that the bee was on and used mine. If I did one in the future I might attach silk petals atop the embroidered ones to give it dimension. The other little bees were taken from another design I had with a bee hive. I deleted the parts I didn't want.
The web for the spider was another shared design. I STB and enlarged it to fit the spider I used. I stitched it out with gold metallic thread. The bugs were from OESD and Say It With Threads, as well as some from generous folks on the BBD.
