You probably already know that as a result of the new European VAT Laws coming into effect on 1 January 2015 Donna has made the difficult decision to close Bearly Mine Designs on Wednesday 31 December 2014. She is currently having a 50% off sale over at the Bearly Mine Designs Store so make sure you pop over and take a look.
Anyway, here is my inspiration project for the Bearly Mine Inspiration and Challenge Blog.
I used my Tattered Lace Starlight Square to frame my LOTV image, this is one of the older pre-coloured die cut squares with Rock Candy distress glitter added to his hat and present.
I created my glittered snowflake by die cutting several Clearly Besotted snowflakes, adding Rock Candy distress glitter and layering them up. The sentiment tags are LOTV stamps, they have been attached with a seam binding bow.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
City Crafter Challenge 241 - Glittering Snowflakes
Crafty Sentiments Designs Challenge - Christmas
Cuttlebug Mania Challenge - Anything Christmas
Crafty Boots Challenge - Merry Christmas
Digi Sketch Challenge - Sketch and/or Waiting for Christmas

Hi Pauline it is such sad news I did take advantage of the 50% off and bought several sets, Donna has always produced some amazing designs and it is awful that this should have to happen. I absolutely love you card the image and papers are truly divine.

This is so pretty, Pauline. Sad that the new laws make it more difficult for small businesses to exist.
It is the same here...Very difficult to keep a business afloat I believe.
Your snowflakes are so pretty and the kraft type snowflake papers look fab with your adorable bear!
Adorable card Pauline - love that LOTV image and fabulous DP's
Gorgeous colour combo.
Think the Tattered Lace dies are on my Santa's List :o)

I haven't read a lot about the new laws but they don't sound good for businesses! Sad to hear about the closing of a wonderful small business - we need laws that help them not close them. Well done card Pauline - that image is heartwarming and the card is adorable all the way around. Hugz
I'm sorry to hear about the store closing and that this will be your last DT post for them. You have made some stunning creations with these gorgeous papers and this one is another beautiful card! You're definitely ending on a high note :)
