Happy Bearday

Hi friends, how ya doing, ok I hope,

My card today is for the following challenges:

Just Cute Bears ~ I followed their sketch, and they have a DT call
Penny Black Saturday ~ Lots of Dots
Rosie D's ~ Easel card
Little Red Waggon ~ Birthday
Sir Stampalot Monthly ~ Butterflies and Blossoms

I didn't want to wait till the morning and used a daylight lamp so the photo is a bit brighter, but hey ho that's what you get when you're impatient.
I'll make it quick as it's really late.
The gorgeous ted is from the teddy and company stamp set, and I used the flowers on the base from
the Wonderful set both by Penny Black.
Copics ~ E30 31 33 B63 BG10 G03 G21 Y21 YR23 and chalk for the background.
Base cardstock celery and ribbon from SU
DP hopscotch by K&Co
Embossed from stash.
Sentiment from the sincere salutations set by SU from Victoria

Thanks for stopping by and for your lovely comments,

Love Cherie  //*.*\\

Teddy Stampers # 9 Red and White

Good Morning, hope the sun is shining for you, and a BIG HELLO to a lovely new follower Vicky thank you for joining us.

We have another challenge for you at Teddy Stampers.
It's St Georges Day on the 23rd April here in the UK, so the theme is St George or red and white.
We'd love you to join in the fun.
Don't forget your creation must have a stamped or digi Teddy on it.
Our sponsor this week is the Cutting Cafe.

I'm also entering the Rosie D's challenge which is red and white

I chose to do a gate fold  for my DT card.  It's not quite an A6 just a bit shorter.
The gorgeous teddies inside are by Stampavie Penny Johnson 'Bubbly Bears'.
I thought I would have a change and coloured them with chalk, then sprayed it with  perfix colourless fixative for pastels.
 The sentiment and heart stamps come from the Forever Friends 'going to the chapel' clear stamp set.
A little bit of stardust stickles for the bubbles and glaze on their noses.

I cut 4 1/8" off the length of A4 cardstock and scored it at 3 1/4" from both ends. The overlap allows the red to be seen through the trellis hearts. The scoring was made much easier with my new Martha Stewart scoring board, absolutely amazing, from  Joanna Sheen.  I did intend to get a score pal but heard this was good. The score lines are nice and narrow, just go a bit slower scoring.
The red card is from the papermill which I embossed with a Cuttlebug roses folder.
I used a rub on greeting and the word punch from Stampin' Up from Victoria.
Rose from Wild Orchid Crafts ribbon and charm from stash.
