Merry Christmas Bear

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


I found this fun bear in my Christmas UFO box.  The birches were in there too, 
and the stamped snowflakes.  They went together pretty well, I think.

I die cut the Merry Christmas banner and it was done.

I love it when I can use up some of those UFOs!

Like the nature feel of this card and just want to hug that cute cuddly bear. Good idea with the stamped snowflakes vs. embossed type ones. And using up some UFO's...an all around win.

And those UFOs came together in such a wonderful way! I love this color combo...very sweet images and the red really pops!

Christmas in the forest, what better way than to have a red banner with a red scarf....definitely a white holiday. Love the snowflakes in the background :D
Great job!!!

Very satisfying to reduce the pile a bit Bonnie and these UFOs were made for each other. The bear is so cute and love his red scarf, and the trees in the background are perfect, and the red banner sentiment looks great and finishes it beautifully. x

Kraft, red and white are such a wonderful color combination and this is such a striking card, Bonnie. How cool everything was there and you pulled it together so well.

Oh Bonnie, I just love this card! I can't believe all these were in your UFO box, they sure did go together quite well and made for one gorgeous Christmas card! I love red/white and kraft together! Hugs, Brenda
