So I thought I’d pair this ADORABLY cute bear image from My Favourite Things with the sweet little sentiment from Wild Rose Studio – this is a great little set with a few extra flower images which I also used.  I created a cream card base for a change and stamped the Gingham Background from Simon Says Stamp in Kraft pigment ink from Avery Elle.  I stamped the bear in Barely Beige Dye ink and gave the “no-line colouring” technique another go (I seriously need so tips on that – #fail)!  To distract from the shoddy colouring I added some sparkle to the icing on the cake using a Spica pen and then a dollop of glossy accents on top for good measure!!  All products used are listed below!

Isn’t Jen Shurkus just a star when it comes to putting together these inspiration boards – this is another cracker!  I thought I’d go for the frosty look from the photos and used one of MFT’s amazing sentiment sets embossed in silver sparkle with some fab Simon Says Stamp snowflakes coated in Rock Candy distress glitter.  Brr, definitely makes me feel chilly!!

It’s an exciting day over at Simon Says Stamp.  The brand new release, BELIEVE IN THE SEASON has gone live and it’s choc FULL of fabulous goodies to get you all in the spirit of Christmas.  There’s new ink colours (which are LUSH), new dies and loads of gorgeous new stamp sets.  One of the new dies is the Snow Globe Landscape.  I’ve paired it with the Transparent Triangle background stamp and Winter Wonderland stamp sets from MFT.  The sentiment is from one of the recent Stamptember releases in collaboration with Avery Elle, Christmas Cheer (love that font)!!

I can’t wait to see what folk create with these gorgeous goodies!
