Tatty Teddy hugs

I really don't need any more cute stamps.....I really don't need ANY more stamps.....but couldn't resist Tatty Teddy....he'll be perfect for so many birthday cards......and even better.....he's very quick to colour as well.
Used the sketch at Simon Says.......so lots of layering.
Daring Cardmakers want 'something old,something new' [the stamp's new, the brads are very old].........Colour Create want 'blue,grey and white'.........Our Creative Corner want 'your style' [I think layering definately counts for that!!!!].........Pear Tree want 'stamp something'.......and Tip Top Tuesday want 'T'.
And wouldn't it be great if this very unBritish weather [32 degrees today] lasted til we went on holiday.......hmmmm........pigs might fly.......but maybe it will last til tomorrow.....when it's a special day.
Finally.......if you're interested in getting a turn with 'Good Mail Day' in 'Pass the Book' take a look at my post here

It's beautiful, Jacky :) I love those soft blues!

Our weather isn't quite as good as yours, but I'm making the most of the chance to wear my summer clothes, even if I need to have a cardy with me just in case....!

Very hot this morning but torrential rain and thunder this afternoon.

Love the cute card you have made too.

I read somewhere that part of our hobby is simply collecting. I never really thought of stamps as a collection, but of course, it is! Made me feel a bit better since I don't collect much else. I have a nice collection of vintage cameras, but no where else to put any so that's over1

Hmmmm, a special day tomorrow ... you have been a quiet little mouse!

Love the card Jacky, the colours are really beautiful.
