"Fallin in Love" Bear


  If you like Digital Stamps, there is a fun digi store and blog to follow called Designed2Delight. The first week of the month there is a FREE digital image- that will be this coming week.  If you make a card and upload it with a link (to Mr Linky) on her blog before the week is up, you will get the next week's digital image free.  Refer a friend that mentions your name when uploading on Mr Blinkie, and you will get an additional freebie.
Can you see the hearts at the tips of the snowflakes???  Such a sweet image that could be used for Christmas or Holiday season as Thank You notes, or for winter "Love" or for Valentines....... can you tell I really like this cute image???  It is colored with SU markers and a touch of Copic markers added for the highlights (B000, W1, W5).  The Bordering Blue CS background has a technique called Metallic Pop that does not show up too well in the photo..... I added another touch of glitz with the Sakura gel pen to the gloves and the centers of the snowflakes. The red DSP is punched with the SU SAB scalloped edge punch, and the sentiment punched with the oval and scalloped oval punches by SU.
Here is my pink version- colored with Copic markers E0000, E000, C2, C3, W1, W3, W5, B000, R81, R85 and Sakura Gel pen for a touch of glitz. I added the rhinestone snowflake for a little more glitz.
  
 I challenged myself to keep up with a challenge called Christmas Cards all Year long- I need to make 5 cards a month- I have made 2 this month previously,  here are the remainder of the cards. (Last minute, but I know I will be happy in November and Dec. to have these!).
 
Challenges with these cards:
Christmas Cards all year long- 5 cards a month
Cupcake Craft-Matching set
Creative Card Crew-Punch it
Spoonful of Sugar-Freestyle

Good Morning. Thanks for stopping by my blog to say hi. I am the lady with the lobster from Maine. You mentioned Little Sebago Lake, I am right around the corner from there. It is a small world. I posted on this post so as not to count twice on the other.
