Bear on a Card

It was my turn this week to choose the theme for the challenge at Crafty Sentiments, and seeing Suzette's  lovely new beary stamps, I was inspired to choose A BEAR ON A CARD for the theme ... a nice and easy one too. 

For my card today I used this cute Mushroom Bear stamp, which I coloured with my promarkers, some flowers from my stash and again my new Nestabilities. 

To do the embossing I used an embossing ruler which was a freebie in the Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine, as was the lovely green paper. I am so pleased how my card turned out today, and it is going in the batch of cards which I am keeping for the exhibition later on this month... can't wait .. so excited!

Crafty Sentiments is sponsoring this week, so come and play with us for your chance to win some of the lovely new stamps in the store.
