Fab card Shell and your colouring is amazing your soooo good with your bear colours xx
I had to read your post very carefully here Shell. For a moment I thought 'oh no, someone didn't read what we asked and they have used a Moose!' But on closer reading I see it's a forever friends' stamp and they are, of course, bears!
A pretty creation, and well done you. I had fully intended to make all 2014's cards this month, but as usual my resolution has come to nothing for the first week!
Anyhow thanks for sharing this little cutie with us

This is really a sweet card. I love the image, and all the embellishments, and as far as Christmas in January, that's great as I do them all year, means less you will have to do at crunch time. Thanks for joining us at Come and Get It this week.
