Happy New Year 🎆
While we await the release of the Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalogue on 6th January, I thought I’d start the new year featuring the Valentine Kisses bundle. It has the cutest bears to colour and this one is done with Blends Combo Markers; Ivory & Crumb Cake, then adding fur using Pecan Pie & Early Espresso Watercolor Pencils.
The background patterned paper is from the Brushed with Beauty DSP and I added some Gold Metallic Enamel Effects to the centres. The large Lovely Doilies is cut in half and adhered to the left side. The sentiment is stamped in Real Red ink using the 12 Days of Christmas stamp set, part of the 2025 Advent Calendar. This is cut using the Three Banner Punch.
The flowers are stamped in Black Memento ink and coloured in Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia, Lost Lagoon & Blue. A Linen Thread bow is added.
