Paper Hat

This project is to support the challenge at As You Like It Challenge where the theme is to use your favourite sentiment.  My favourite occasion for cards is Christmas, so my favourite sentiment had to be Christmas related.  I love the phrase 'winter wishes' but that didn't seem quite right for this image as it wasn't very 'wintery', so I opted for a simple 'Merry Christmas' instead.  

The image from Lee Holland Digis is actually called Birthday Bear, but I thought the hat he was wearing looked like the paper hats that come in crackers, so he seemed to still fit the theme. :0)

This image has gone straight on my wish list - he is soooooo cute and a really versatile image too, great for Christmas or birthdays.
His spotty paper hat is fab and I love the traditional Christmassy colours :-)

This has to be one of the cutest cards I have seen in a long time. I think the image is perfect for Christmas as the crown reminds me of Jesus. And though we celebrate His birthday at Christmas, we must anticipate the death and resurrection that are sure to follow. Thank you for bringing a bit of joy into my day!

Hugs, Melissa
