A Very Bare Bear

Hello to everyone out there in Blog land, 

I just stopped by with a quick card I have to show you using the gorgeous Lili of the valley stamp 

James Daisy.

It is my first attempt at CAS, and goodness it was so hard for me.  Think I may still have got a little carried away with my flowers  however but I was really good and stayed clear of ribbon and pearls and all other embellishments.

James was coloured with my spectrum noir pens, using the dot technique as I have done previously. The papers are from the Promises pad from LOTV.

Just a few die cut daises to embellish with buttons of course

A stamped greeting and a bow to balance it out

I am pleased with the finished result but it was so hard not to reach for the paper roses and bling, hope you like it. Many thanks for the pics which were taken by my lovely daughter Beth as I didn't have time, before I sent it off. She takes much better photos than me I am sure you will agree.
I  hope you have a lovely weekend and get lots of crafting done, bye for now Maria

Best wishes Maria
