Just Cute Bears #6 - Mint & Brown..

Here is my DT card for challenge #6 from Just Cute Bears!!

A gorgeous colour combo this week of Mint & Brown :0)

I have used my neglected Dexter Bear from Sugar Nellie, I love his knitted jumper! The image is coloured in with promarkers and I have gone for a dotty background again! I do like this effect :)

The paper is a double-sided one from EK Success aptly called 'Mint Espresso'.

Just Cute Bears #5 - Lilac....

Another fabulous challenge this week from Just Cute Bears- Use the colour Lilac!!

One of my favourite colours :0) so I really enjoyed making my DT card!

I have used this gorgeous FF bear holding a bunch of daisies, I have coloured the image with promarkers. I use oatmeal, honeycomb and ginger for the bear colours, I'd love to know what everyone else uses for their bear colours?

The pretty floral paper is DCWV and I used my new Martha Stewart deep Daisy Fan punch to create the flower strip down the centre, love it! I can see me using it a lot!!!

As usual there is a very cute Cuddly Buddly stamp to be won this week :) and do check out the {BLOG} to see all the wonderful lilac DT cards!

Time for another challenge from Just Cute Bears! This week we have a fantastic sketch to follow from the very talented Jane :)

You can flip or rotate the sketch as you wish :0) to create any kind of project, card, atc, altered gift etc. as long as it features a 'cute bear'.

Here is my {CUTE} bear card!!

I have used this Penny Black cutie for my card coloured with promarkers. I have cut the image out with circle Nellie dies and the papers are a mix of Papermania and K & Co. To finish I have added the flower gems and a little butterfly x

ALL Squiggle Stamps designs are now available as digi {HERE}

Rubber stamps will of course still be available too and Tracy at Squiggle is expecting the Lilliputs range in VERY soon :0) But if you cant wait!! go DIGI!

The image I have used is called 'Squirrel Picnic', so cute!! The papers are Bo Bunny and the image is coloured using promarkers. I have tried something new when colouring the background. I spotted Elaine trying out this technique at the weekend after being inspired by Crissy. I loved the effect so had to give it a go too :)

Just Cute Bears #3 - Hearts x

My DT card for this week's Just Cute Bears challenge of Hearts!

Valentines is just around the corner! but hearts can be used for many occasions :0)

I have used a pink/brown colour combo inspired by the lovely heart flower paper from Bo Bunny. The gorgeous teddy stamp was a freebie from a magazine last year I think, and this is the 1st time I've used him! I will definitely use him again!!

I have coloured the image with promarkers and the cardstock is SU, I finished with some punched hearts and the little flower gems x

Do pop over to the Just Cute Bears blog and check out all the stunning DT cards and of course see who won last week's Cuddly Buddly stamp!

Looking forward to seeing everyone's 'Hearts' creations x

Anyone for Anya - sketch # 6

Cute Card Thursday - #98 Spots & Dots

I have coloured the image with copics and the cardstock is SU. To finish I have added the little flowers in coordinating colours with a sparkly gem centre.

Ta-Da!!

A very bright card today!! you need your sunglasses!! I received these papers from Kath in a goody bag and thought they would be perfect for Oscar the Clown from Squiggle Stamps :)

I really enjoyed colouring this cutie in bright colours and I love the little sentiment to go with the image. Oscar would make a fun, happy card for many occasions :0)

I have used Jeanette's wonderful sketch for Friday Sketchers #87 this week for the layout.

Cant believe we are in a new month already!! Spring will soon be on it's way :) Although it does'nt feel that way today here in Scotland, it's snowing again!!!!

Hope the weather is better where you are x
