Who wants a hug?

Heya! Oh, what a lovely sunny day we have here today. I'm still enjoying my days off and am trying to stock on Christmas cards and gift bags, as well as getting ahead with my DT works. Surprisingly I'm doing pretty well. Usually I'm a "doing-everything-at-the-last-possible-second" type of girl, but once for a change I'm actually ahead. And it feels good! ;)

The other day I was going through my stamps and I realized there are quite a few I haven't inked in a while (or never *eeek*). One of those is also the super sweet Bob the yeti from Yumi & Fumi Handmade. I love this little fella so I immediately took it out of the bag, inked it up and used it on my project. :) Here's what I came up with.

Isn't he oh so fluffy?! I just wanna give him a hug. lol I did the coloring with Promarkers and Faber Castell pencils. Papers are leftover scraps from my stash. Blue stars are made with my Nellie Snellen die. They were cut out of the light blue ardstock, which I later covered with glitter glue. The gold stars are actually a trim - I just cut them apart. You can get this trim at the Crafty ribbons store. The other ribbons (except the white satin one) are from Crafty ribbons as well. Pearls and doily came from my stash. I embossed the oval behind Bob with Mpress Mystic clouds embossing folder. The sentiment ("joy") is a wooden embellishment that I've had in my stash for quite a while. I added some small pearls on it as decoration.

That's it. Bob and I wish you a wonderful day! :D Fluffy hugs! xx
