Hi all! Gosh, Sunday evening already! It was a bit of a dark damp old day today, not one to inspire you to go anywhere! So I busied myself instead and got ahead of the game with Greg's Birthday card. This adorable bear is from a set I bought from Creative Depot last month, destined to be 2023's Christmas cards, but I reckoned the bear would be fine for a birthday.
I got my scraps out for this one - I love all my MFT paper packs and always end up keeping end bits as they're too nice to chuck ...
I found a couple of little silver stars on my table (I mustn't have cleared it since Christmas LOL) so I stuck them on to use them up. Some blue and green splatters with my metallic paints, and a bit of cord to finish. Sentiment is from a Penny Black set. I absolutely love how this turned out, I have sorely missed my mojo for such a long time that it is nice to make 2 cards in a row that I am pleased with!!

I know what you mean. I always have trouble throwing away scraps of the papers I like. I like the ways you used your snippets. Fantastic card! Hugs! xx
I just want to hug that bear! He looks so happy and harmless with his little gift. I think Greg will love his card.
