I've ended up with a kind of vintage look, which was not intentional, but I do quite like it. I decided to stitch the sections, and then immediately regretted cutting an oval shape for the main image. D'oh!
This project is to support the challenge at As You Like It Challenge where the theme is to make something representing your favourite season. Although I like crafting for Christmas, my favourite season is summer. I love the longer days, the warmer weather and the brighter skies. I like to think that my honeybears are enjoying playing in the garden on a summer's afternoon.

Annette, this is a wonderful card. You have coloured this cute image beautifully - gorgeous colour choice and shading. Your card design is so lovely - it is great to see lace I have had hanging around for ages being used so perfectly.
...an now I discover that not only are you an amazing colourist and crafter but you can stitch an oval this neatly! All fabulous.
