It's the little things....





Good morning, I was delighted to be invited by lovely Jo  to Guest Design for Try it on Tuesday.
The theme for this  fortnight's challenge is 'Oh So Sweet'.

I used a favourite set of stamps Anita Jerome stamps from Colorado Crafts, this little bear is definitely a sweetie! I stamped him onto a panel of kraft card, then stamped and embossed the sentiment.  I've used Polychromo pencils to colour. I added the faux stitching with a white gel pen, the tiny bees in the corners are part of the same stamp set. 
Please hop over to TIOT to see the beautiful creations the team have made- I'm sure you'll be made very welcome if you choose to play along!
Thanks for visiting today-
