A 'beary' happy birthday!

I have been dying to use this stamp which came free with the last issue of Quick Cards Made Easy and so I used it for my nephews 3rd birthday card.

I must say a huge thank you to Katy for posting about this stamp on her blog, if she hadn't said anything I probably would have missed out on this little Cutie, so thanks Katy you're a star!

I coloured padington in with my whispers pens and added some definition with my white sakura pen. Matted onto DCWV CS that has been cut with my circle nestabilities. I hope you're not getting sick of seeing these, they are my new toy so I seem to be using them for most things at the moment! Red CS has been embossed with the swiss dots cuttlebug folder. Background paper is Papermania and sentiment is Penny Black. The chipboard '3' is from some chipboard alphabet/number kits that I got from the pound shop, I added some anita's 3D gloss to finish!

I really had fun creating this card and I think he is soooo cute, I need to find more reasons to use him!
