A bear for Friday


I think Thursdays should be the new hump day because Mr Motivated left the building but Bev had made the sketch for the Lily of the Valley challenge so I knew a card couldn't go wrong using that.
So I used this cute bear that I picked up at Ally Pally he was the only one I hadn't got that I wanted.
I ran it through the cuttlebug to emboss before I put the layers on so the embossing on the bottom won't matter.
I had to use my new nestie haven't got it out of my system yet and of course it wouldn't be a Christmas card without snowflakes.
I did have a problem with the stickles like put the bottle down and step away from the card must of nearly used half a bottle by the time I finished.
So the weekend is upon us, I have the scrapbuddies crop on Sunday and Saturday we've been invited to celebrate my Nieces 39th birthday (she reckons shes not celebrating next year) ten days early do you think I should be suspicious since my big birthday is Monday, hopefully whatever my Nephew in law is doing he left it too late to book the weekend he really wanted.

Such a cute bear, and a gorgeous card! I would never have thought of embossing an image and decoupaging on top of it - looks fab!(see, this is why I spend so much looking at other people's inspiration LOL!)
Have a great weekend - enjoy the party(!) - I'm actually going out tonight - family meal for my hubby's parents' golden wedding anniversary.
Happy Birthday for Monday!
