Winter Bear Buddies

If you're looking for my Whimsy and Stars Studio Blog Hop post please click here.

A HUGE thank you to all my friends who have voted for me at Fashionista Challenge.  The voting is open through Saturday if you haven't had a chance to vote yet.  Here's the link.


     Being sick really stinks!  Trying to sit still and not talk so I don't cough does leave me with lots of crafty time though so here's a for fun card with another adorable Birdie Brown digi stamp from Torico.  I won her freebie challenge in October and picked out this pair.
     I used fun Dovecraft Christmas papers and added white embossing to the edge of the blue mat for a frosty winter look.  Thought it could use a little Stickles, Baker's Twine, and buttons too.  ☺
