Beary Christmas!

Good Evening my crafty friends and I hope you have had a lovely day. We have been blessed with sunshine here in Dorset today, a little chillier than we have been used to but I've managed to get loads done in the garden before the rain comes back. I then treated myself to some time in my work room and here's what I did...


I felt the need to make another Christmas card and use my lovely new LOTV stamp ( I won it...don't worry I haven't been spending again...as if!). I coloured the little bears to compliment the Christmas in the Country paper. The fab ribbon was part of a prize bundle from Crafty Ribbons and the pine cones are from Joanna Sheen's new Signature die range. I cut them in Kraft card and then sponged them with DI's in Frayed Burlap and Walnut stain for the appearance of texture and finished off with white pen.

    So gorgeous Sarah. One of my all time favourite LOTV stamps and your colouring is so beautiful. I love the papers and die cuts too.
    I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend. The weather does not look too promising here for my Son's cricket match tomorrow!
