Happy Thoughts

Hi!  It's time for another challenge from Jo's Scrap Shack:

 Here is my card for your inspiration:

We have two sponsors this week: Sherry Baldi and Robyn's Fetish.  I was given the sweet little bear image from Robyn's Fetish to work with.  So, my 3 colors are pink, blue, and yellow, my two embellishments are flowers and lace and my technique is heat embossing the sentiment (though my pieced background could probably be a technique, too).  All the papers are from the same MME pack and when I opened it up all these lovely little scraps fell out and I decided they would be perfect for this type of background that I have used quite a bit.  It's the perfect way to use up those pieces that are too big to throw away, but too small to really be able to use.  I cut them into 3"x 1/2" strips and made a fun little pattern.  Hop on over to Jo's blog to see the full details of the challenge and make sure you check out what the rest of the DT has created.  Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: Robyn's Fetish "Susan Red Hat Bear" digi; Verve "Happy thoughts" freebie

Dies: I traced the outside of my largest oval from Spellbinders "Classic Ovals, large" but didn't actually use any dies on this card!
