A Panda, a Mini and a Teddy!

That is what I was asked to include in a birthday card if possible! After some thought I came up with the idea of a mini - paper pieced with a teddy driving and a panda watching! So began the web search for a suitable digi stamp. I found the perfect mini but the site had some problems and I couldn't complete the purchase. So back to the search and this time I found a stamp of a mini with a teddy driving. Thank goodness for Lili of the Valley! A hasty purchase and fingers crossed it came quickly. It arrived yesterday morning and by the afternoon I had made the card.

Now I know what you're thinking - where's the panda? No matter how I tried I couldn't come up with a way of incorporating it without spoiling the card. So no panda I'm afraid.

Merry Monday Snowman

Rumour has it that it's not long till Christmas - so time to make a real start on those Christmas cards. I have played on and off with the Merry Monday challenge during the year so have got a few made already!  This week the theme is to use a snowman and it just so happens that I had some new Lili of the Valley stamps on my desk and this snowman was among them.

 

 I coloured him with copics then looked for a sketch to follow to make him into a card. Papertake Weekly challenge had just the sketch. After I'd finished the bottom strip just didn't look right so I added the white die cut border that was sitting in my snippets box. I'm still not entirely happy with it though, so just might have to change it a bit! Meanwile I;m entering it into the following challenges:

Merry Monday 66

I haven't managed to join in the Merry Monday  challenge for a few weeks now but managed to come up with an idea and actually make it this week!

 

 I didn't want to use just designer paper for my flags and all my tree stamps were too wide. Then I find this pretty Lili of the Valley stamp I boughtlast year. The embossed flags are a Sizzix embossing folder which I bought from the US from a certain well known auction site. I had seen it used here but couldn't find anywhwere to buy it in the UK. The sentiment is a very old Kodomo stamp.
