Hi everyone!
This post is a little overdue because the announcement has already been made, but this is definitely one for the books - or in my case, one for the blog. This is a milestone that I want to look back on years from now, so it absolutely deserves its own post.
I am officially a Bee Happy Brand Ambassador!
If you’ve been following me for a while, you might be wondering, “Weren’t you already one?”
Well… not exactly.
Last year, I had the privilege of becoming a Bee Happy Guest Ambassador for the first quarter of the year. Ever since Bee Happy launched the Guest Ambassador program, I secretly hoped I’d get the chance to be part of it someday. So when they reached out and invited me, I was beyond ecstatic.
Being a Guest Ambassador was already a dream come true.
Even after my Guest Ambassador term ended, I never really left the Bee Happy community. If I was active before being a Guest Ambassador, of course I had to continue joining the Weeklies challenges still. Not because of the prizes, but because I genuinely enjoyed them. They pushed me to create consistently, introduced me to new techniques, and allowed me to interact with an inspiring community of crafters. More than anything, it gave me another way to support and promote a brand that I love.
Then something completely unexpected happened.
During our vacation last month, while we were on our cruise, I received a message from the owner of Bee Happy. Naturally, I thought it was just going to be our usual conversation.
Instead…
She invited me to become a Bee Happy Brand Ambassador.
I couldn’t believe what I was reading.
I was so happy! It couldn’t have come at a better time too. If you’ve ever been on a vacation, especially a cruise, you probably know that bittersweet feeling when it’s almost over. I always get a little sad when vacations come to an end, but this news completely changed that. Suddenly, I had something incredibly exciting waiting for me after the trip.
The timing couldn’t have been more perfect.
I never imagined this would happen because I’m currently based here in Saudi Arabia. While the logistics really aren’t much of an issue (I’ve become quite an expert at bringing Bee Happy hauls from Manila to Saudi by now!), I simply never thought being based overseas would still make becoming a Brand Ambassador possible.
But apparently, it was.
And of course…
I said yes.
I mean… obviously!
The Official Announcement
Below is Bee Happy’s official announcement welcoming me to the team!
I also wanted to share one of the many photos I had my husband take just because I wanted to have lots of options to choose from. The funny part is that I was the one standing completely stiff while he was the one moving around trying different angles. I am really so awkward when it comes to posing for photos.
This is my ngiting tagumpay photo. Hehe!
Looking Back
Since I didn’t have this blog yet when I became a Guest Ambassador last year, I also wanted to include that announcement here for posterity.
Along with it, I’m sharing one of the many photos my husband took then. Looking back at those photos reminds me just how much this journey has grown in such a short amount of time.

Seeing everything on the list already gets me excited for all the projects I’ll be creating over the next few months.
Even more exciting was when different friends started sending me photos after spotting my kit at the Bee Happy store! It was so surreal seeing my supplies sitting there waiting for me. It somehow made the excitement even more real, even if I still have to wait a little while before I can actually bring everything home.
Looking Forward
One thing I want to do differently this time around is document this entire journey here on the blog.
That means every Bee Happy Brand Ambassador project I create will have its own blog post - from cards and scrapbook layouts to mini albums, journals, and whatever crafty adventure comes next.
Looking at my current pile of projects, I already have quite a backlog waiting to be written about. Looks like I’ll be spending plenty of time catching up!
Before I end this post, I just want to say thank you to Bee Happy for trusting me and welcoming me to the team. It truly means so much to represent a brand that I’ve loved and supported long before becoming an ambassador.
I’m so excited for everything that’s ahead, and I can’t wait to share this creative journey with all of you.
Until my next project…
Be crafty, Bee Happy!
