Bea's In Love

Good Morning

Hasn't the weather been strange over the last few days? Please come back Mr Sunshine!

I couldn't resist and just had to have another go at the current challenge over at TeddyBo. I love Teddy Bea and Bo and I love making easel cards, so here is my second entry to the current challenge.


I remembered to choose my papers before colouring in the image again, and these are some more papers from a previous edition of Making Cards magazine. I love the colour in these papers so it made it quite an easy choice for me. Teddy Bea is coloured using pencils. I've used a Marianne die (for the first time) to make the beautiful circular frame, and also the frame which holds the sentiment. The sentiment is a LOTV stamp.

The flowers are cut from the same papers using a Marianne die, the leaves are a x-cut embossing punch, and the centres are made using a punch. The ribbon is from my stash as is the heart charm which I felt worked really well with this card.

As well as the challenge at Teddy Bo, I would also like to enter my card in the Polka Doodles Challenge, which is also an easel card.

Today I really must finish my LIM card which is sat in bits on my desk!

Thanks for visiting.

Adorable card Jo. Love those colours and you have used the Marianne dies to perfection. What a lovely idea to use the smaller one as your card stop! Thanks for the inspiration.
