Side 4

I have used a forever friends father teddy stamp! and coloured it with pro markers and cut it out, then attatched it to my new spelbinders metallics frames. pearls have been added for sparkle, and glitter on the fir of the teddies coat and hat

glitter has also been added to the die cut

Sentiment is an unknown stamp, punched out and inked and added to a silver metallics die cut.

The stopper for the easle section is also from the same die set, with glitter and pearls for sparkle


I will be entering this project into the following challenges
