Merry Days with Friends

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

When my friends Michele and Nance came to play in my studio,
Michele stamped and die cut this adorable image that she had bought
on the way to my house.

Today we are sharing our makes from this sweet set.


I colored the image with Copics and added a bit of Wink of Stella to the
bows and star atop the tree.

The embossed background gives the impression that these bears are coming 
from the forest.

Challenges:
Christmas Kickstart #90 - Embossing Folder
Inkspirational #324 - Make Your Mark (used Copic markers)
Krafty Chicks - Christmas

Those bears are super cute with their polka dot scarves and hats while making their way home with that berry laden tree, Bonnie. Love it! This was a great idea to share our makes! Will have to do it again.

Oh, Bonnie, I LOVE them as polar bears and with polka dot-y hats and scarves! Now wouldn't it be nice to come from the forest with a fully decorated tree? SO fun!

How lovely that Michele came down from Michigan to join you and Nance for some crafting time Bonnie, and what sweet little Christmas bears with their parcels and tree, and I love their red/white spotted scarves, and the background embossing looks great. x

So darned adorable! It's colorful and full of life, and sweet how they're walking through the snowy forest with their already trimmed tree, and little sled of gifts. Absolutely charming!

How lovey that you had friends over for crafty playtime! Your card is a beauty, Bonnie. I would have coloured the bears and completely missed out on creating such a perfect card. Your limited colour palette is dah bomb and no mistake. I love how the gold pops. Thanks for joining Jenny and me at Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
