Blue James

I couldn’t do this year’s pile of Christmas cards without my favourite bear! I’ve been colouring him, in various poses, every year since I started colouring, and I am not about to break that tradition! I’ve used prismacolor pencils this time and I simply love that look of pencils on kraft. It’s been a while since I did any of those colourings, so I shall bump that right to the top of my list, I think! You can find James Santa Stop Here in the Lili of the Valley shop.

The big sentiment die is by Mama Elephand and I coloured it up with copics to match. A little die cut around the edge and a lot of snow finished it off.

Here is another photo because he’s cute! See all the layers on the text.

Meet James, my favourite bear. He’s been my favourite since I started crafting 10ish years ago. Here is he with his snowman. He is a Lili of the Valley bear.

I’ve used Maja Design papers and a stacked Lawn Fawn die cut together with a Simon Says Stamp sentiment.

My favourite bear is definitely James of Lili of the Valley. He is super cute and I love to colour him up. This time I’ve opted to give him a green hat and scarf and I made a simple card from it. I used various dies to cut out smaller elements to make a little cluster on the opposite site and used a Norwegian sentiment by Kort og Godt as well as snowflakes from dies and chipboard.

Here is another photo of the card.

A bit of Christmas in April

Because why not, right? This is possibly my favourite Lili of the Valley image. I love James Bear and this particular one is adorable! I used some Maja Design papers, but kept the card reasonably simple.

I’ve signed up for a couple of Christmas card swaps and this is one of the cards I made. I used one of my favourite bear stamps, by Lili of the Valley, my favourite Maja Design papers along with my favourite lace. Can you spot a theme going here? I edged the outer papers with white acrylic paint to give the card even more of a wintery feel.

Copics used: E41, E42, E43, E44, N0, N1, N3 and the blues I don’t remember.. maybe it was the B30s..
