Bear Hugs - Challenge

Hi everyone!   We have a new April Challenge going on now at Once Upon A Time!   This card was designed by me,  & I named it: Fuzz E. Bear - Bear Hugs   He is a super cute bear, sending off a card.   There's even a little teeny spider with a web underneath the mailbox.   :)    I asked my hubby if he thought this looked too much like a valentines design, and he assured me that it would work anytime of the year, which I happen to agree.    Here it is.  

I guess I should open an Etsy Shop at some point to offer my designs.  ;)  What do you think?    Okay, thank you so much for coming by today, leave a comment if you wish, I love to hear from my followers.  :)   If I didn't mention this earlier the theme is Bears.   From a book Corduroy.   Come check out the challenge!    Big crafty hugs, Mary

Best Friends Christmas - CCAYR Challenge

Hi everyone,  There is a new Challenge going on now at CCAYR!    Here is my card, keeping with the theme 4 of something or a bird.   This design is by Darcie's heart & home collection.   I thought it was super cute, found this in a local flea market.

My original stamping job left the words upside down so I had to cut everything out to turn it right side up.  :)  Wanted to keep with a CAS card but thought it wouldn't hurt to add a little bling.   I just used my prisma pencils to color it all in.    Thank you so much for dropping by, and hope to see you over at Christmas Crafts All Year Round.   

Hugs, Mary
