Lily of the Valley-

I made this cute Lily of the Valley Bear card using The Sweet Stop sketch challenge #84.  First time I have stamped and colored in what seems like forever.... Life gets in the way sometimes, with the holidays and family.

Dad hit a bump in the road and had to go back in to the hospital this week, but he is home now and feeling soooo much better. Thanks to all of you who sent good thoughts our way, they certainly helped and are so  appreciated!


I got on a roll last night with this great image and this YUMMY paper from Bo Bunny! I think I could make a gazillion cards from it and never tire of it...so watch out, I must just try to use the last of it up LOL!




The challenge over at the Lily of the Valley Challenge Blog is "a few of my favorite things". You are to use craft items and stamps you couldn't live without. Well, that sort of leaves the door wide open don't you think? I couldn't live without my copics, my nesties, my dies, my ribbon and bling, my wonderful new LOTV stamps...You can tell I love all my "stuff"!



Hope you enjoy these! Thanks for stopping by!

Card details for both cards:

-----------------------------------
Stamps: Lily of the Valley Merry Christmas
Cardstock: Lavender and Turquoise fro SU!, DP from Bo Bunny
Ink: Copics and Lavender or Lilac (can't remember) from SU
Misc: Pinking nesties, White SU satin ribbon. crystals, polka dot ribbon
