Bear Wonderful Birthday

I had so much fun playing with all of my new “toys” this weekend.  Die cuts, embossing folders, stamps, oh my!

Look at this huge gift – I know they say good thing come in small packages but sometimes it’s fun to get a large present.

The image is a digital stamp from Designed 2 Delight, I used copic markers to color the bear and ribbon. I did some paper piecing for the gift box.

I used the sketch from Sketches in Thyme as my inspiration for the layout.

I flipped the image on it’s side to better fit my stamp.  The DP is from Memory Box.

I used a couple of Marianne Design’s die cuts for the flourishes.  The side border treatment is a Martha Steward punch.
