Christmas Bumble Bear

I'm so excited to be a part of the KaDoodle Bug Designs and Peachy Keen Stamps Christmas in July FB hop. Mix these two great companies together and you get a whole lot of cuteness going on!
 
It is a week long hop (Monday - Friday) and we are on Day 4. If you would like to join in on the fun and have a chance to win some fabulous prizes, head on over to my FB page,
M Miranda Creations, for all the details.
 
I want to share my card here on my blog as well to give more details on all the supplies I've used and to enter it into a few challenges.
 
 
I combined the Busy Bee Bears and Christmas Trees sets from KaDoodle Bug Designs with the Peachy Keen Stamps Christmas Greeting Words to make this super sweet Christmas card.
 
 
I think this Bumble Bear is adorable all decked out in Christmas colors. And I like that he is decorating his Christmas tree as this is probably my favorite Christmas tradition each year. I just changed out the heart the bear was carrying for a bulb and used Totally Natural Trendy Twine to attach it.
 
 
For the card base, I found this A2 Tabbed Card with Scalloped Sleeve by Lori Whitlock in the Silhouette store.
 
I hope you have enjoyed my card and are ready to get your Christmas cards going for this season. It will be here quicker than you think!

  3. I love your card! I also really love the shape/style of the card but I don't have a silhouette, I have an Eclips :( Really wonderful card!

    1. Charity, my last machine was the Eclips. I used it until it died! Lol!!! It was a great machine though and there are some things I really miss about it. But so you know just in case, Lori Whitlock also sells all her card bases and other items in her own store at loriwhitlock.com. You should be able to find the card base there. I use to buy her stuff from her store before buying the Silhouette. In her store, it is all in SVG format. Hope that helps!
