OK, OK. Maybe more than few!
It's actually hubby's b'day today, and I've been happy to let him assume all the packages that have been arriving lately might be for him as I've squirrelled them away to the safety of my craft desk.
Luckily I'm fairly sure he'd not be as interested in some alcohol markers and a few Sugar Nellies as I am!
Anyway, back to my card ... I'm actually quite pleased with this one. Firstly I love the cute teddy image, but also don't think I did too bad with the colouring either.
I really love this colour scheme; aqua and purple, and think it all comes together nicely with the simple layout and huge die cut sentiment.
I made this card to support the new challenge at Without Words Challenge where the theme is Christmas Present. It's actually implying a modern Christmas, rather than the gift variety of the word, although I have covered both!
