Lily of the Valley Wedding Bears

Good Morning!
After spending 3 days in the Lake District and getting home on Friday evening I finally got the chance to sit down and craft yesterday. 
I've used another new release by LOTV and created a Wedding card with these super sweet bears. The sentiment is from LOTV and sits perfectly at the bottom of the image. I haven't added as much as I usually do to a card (although it's not far off lol) to try and keep most of the focus on the image.

Susie the Succulent

Good Morning!
I hope you're all enjoying the bank holiday in the UK, by the time you're reading this I will unfortunately be at work! The joys of working in retail ...

It's been an extremely long time since I purchased some stamps but a couple of weeks ago I thought I'd treat myself and add 4 new Stamping Bella stamps to my collection. Being an avid gardener I couldn't resist this design ... Susie the Succulent! The photo quality isn't the best as I took it late in the afternoon but hopefully it doesn't look too bad.
