Autumn has well and truly arrived here in Australia, the leaves on all the trees are changing to the most beautiful bright colours and they look striking against a storm darkened sky (if only the clouds would open) we are approaching water restrictions soon due to the dam level reaching 50%. I did some illicit colouring last week and decided to make a Christmas card with one of the images I coloured.
I have again used my trick to expand the 15cm (6") paper to cover the larger card blank cutting and hiding the cut behind the centre strip...
Here is my card:-
What I used:-
White 12.6x 17.8cm card blank (5x7)
From the Heart Stamps Teddy Gift Stack digi image
Lily Bee Designs Christmas Cheer Papers
Faber-Castell pencils
Wink of Stella liberally on bears hat
Hero Arts Stamp and Cut Christmas
Clear embossing ink
Silver super fine embossing powder
Clear rhinestones

Teddy with his Christmas hat is adorable. The teeny mouse is so cute too. Great papers you used for matting. I wish I could send you some rain. We have really had too much in the southern U.S. I don't know when my yard here will dry out.
Sweet festive bear with his lovely coloured stack of presents. The patterned papers are really pretty as a backdrop x
That teddy is darling and I love the patterned papers you put together. This card is so much fun!
I hope you get some rain soon!
Delightful cards and image. I to often 'stretch' paper panels or indeed die cuts, makes them more versatile. Emma
