Beary Merry Christmas!

When I was young one of my BFF's (Raquel) and I were obsessed with Winnie The Pooh.  I'm not sure why, but we were.  When I saw this baby Pooh, I knew I had to use it on a card for her one day.  This sentiment from My Creative Time reminded me of that cut and that is how this card came to be.

I LOVE this card! Sometimes you picture something in your head, and once in a while the real thing surpasses all expectations. That is how I feel about this card.  I'm going to have a "beary" difficult time letting it go!! 

Here is my card:


This card base is from Art Philosophy.  Every time I look at that cartridge, I find more and more stuff to love!  Pooh came from the Pooh Font cart. I used SU! Dazzling Diamonds on his Santa hat.  I was enabled by my BFF Jennifer, she used it on a Santa hat and it looked so beautiful that I had to get some!


I even added an inside layer.  I never do this, but now that I see what a difference it makes, there is no going back :) 


The background paper is from Recollections Naughty or Nice Christmas Stack.  I love their stacks! Did you know that DCVW produces them?  No wonder they are so gorgeous!

    I really love the patterned paper. DCWV is definitely the best company for paper. The Dazzling Diamonds look cute, but I'm glad we both have flock now!
