Christmas Bear

It's time for a new challenge at Winter Wonderland and this week we would like you to make a card for 'Baby's First Christmas'.  I have used an adorable die cut topper from Lilly of the Valley and papers from Pink Petticoat.


I have kept with quite a simple design, the embossed background is a Cuttlebug snowflake folder, the sentiment is a LOTV stamp and I used a Fiskars punch to create the border.

This week we have two fabulous sponsors


who are giving a £10 voucher to one lucky winner

and

Iva Nova Chest



who are giving this fabulous baby themed goody bag



I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

CHNC Challenge 132 - Christmas card suitable for a child
Merry Monday July Challenge - Anything Goes Christmas
Shelly's Images July Challenge - Anything Goes Christmas
Simply Create Too Challenge 41 - Christmas in July
ABC Challenge 36 - Christmas in July
The Cutie Pie Challenge 48 - Cute and Cuddly
Crafty Sentiments Challenge - Christmas in July
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge 215 - Christmas
Paper Crafting Journey Challenge - Christmas in July

Make sure you pop over to the Winter Wonderland Challenge blog and take a look at the fabulous DT inspiration, we would love for you to join us this week for our 'Baby's First Christmas' challenge.

Thank you for visiting me today, I really appreciate your company.
