I used Occupation Bear - Teacher. I coloured it in with promarkers and then decoupaged the bear up. Here is the colours I used Bear- Ice grey 1 & 2 and Baby Pink Hat- Black Apple- Berry Red, Lush Green, Burnt Umber A- Royal Blue

The card blank is A5 size and is made from A4 white card from papermill. I have used a pale green paper on the bottom and then 3 different papers from the papermania collosall vibrant collection. The sentiment is from craftwork cards and then layered onto purple card and a green glitter card cut with the scallop circle die. The card is then finished off with a ribbon and then card candi.
