Joy


Continuing on with the week long Christmas in July event at Catch The Bug Challenge Blog.  Making all these Christmas cards has really put me in the mood to do some shopping.....for presents of course! I love this cute teddy bear image from Bugaboo Stamps.  Isn't he adorable? I need to get some red flock and do up another card flocking the hat or maybe some brown to make him fuzzy? Now that's a thought.  This card is following the challenge of using chocolate, cream and raspberry colors.  I used chocolate cardstock, raspberry and white dot paper and a string of cream pearls.  Getting those pearls to stay in place was a challenge but I love how elegant they look! I colored in the image with Promarkers and all the papers came from my stash!
