Lee Holland - Teddy Best Friends

Hi everyone! I have a super quick make to share with you today. As you know I usually shy away from CAS, and by shy away I mean run screaming lol, and well animals have not been my forte either. But lately I've been having fun colouring up animals and I decided to have a bit of a play with CAS as well.


I'm pretty happy with this, I think it's starting to make sense to me. It still makes me twitch a little, and I would never abandon my fussy cards, but sometimes it's just nice to make something in an hour or so and be able to send it flat in an envelope.  I used the following:

Langton Hot Pressed Watercolour Paper
Distress Ink Markers
Heavy White Cardstock
A scrap of deep aqua cardstock.

In the UK you can get your Whimsy stamps and dies from Dies to Die for

You get 3 bears in the pack plus sentiments, so I will certainly be making some more cards with these.

That's all from me today, I said it was a super quick share lol!

See you soon! :) xx

  1. I should think you are still twitching at this VERY CAS style card, are you sure you don't want to just put a little pearl in the corner? Or maybe a small piece of ribbon down the side? ~ 'Twitch' ~ Could you add a tiny butterfly die cut? Or a few gem stones in a line along the bottom? ~ Twitch ~ Enough of my teasing - this is a FANTASTIC CAS card! Such a sweet and gorgeous little bear image which you have beautifully coloured and given centre stage here. Love it!

    1. Hahaha Lorraine, you know me so well. I WAS very tempted to add a Tiny butterfly die cut to it, but I was very restrained and decided it would only detract from the lovely negative die cut. I did pretty much have to sit on my hands though lol! xx
