A card for a few Challenges...

Hi all, today I have a card for a few challenges. The colour inspiration is from CR84FN, The Shabby Tearoom want us to use Polka Dots, Let's Craft and Create have a Teddy Bear theme, and The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop require ribbons/twine.

CR84FN graphic:


The Shabby Tearoom:



And here's my take:



Here is Milton the Bear, taking a wheelbarrow full of birthday flowers to a lucky someone!
I have had this stamp, by Wild Rose Studio for some time, and have never used it. So when I saw the challenge over at Let's Craft and Create, I knew I had to break him out!

He is coloured with Promarkers, and cut with Nestabilities Labels 14.



Layered onto some yellow polka dot embossed Bazzill, then layered again onto some kraft bazzill, embossed with a floral folder from Crafts Too.




The little tag punch is also from Crafts Too, and the sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps, Teeny Trees.


Polka dot ribbon and twine is from The Ribbon Reel, and the doily and flat backed pearls from stash.

All distressed with Antique Linen and Frayed Burlap Distress Inks.

Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline xx
