Well, those circles were a challenge, for a start! I don't have any fancy tools for cutting circles, just a small pair of scissors and whatever I can find in the house to cut around!So, one wine glass, one tub of body scrub and the inner ring of a roll of sticky tape later, here's my attempt....
OK I cheated. The circles got to me. I had to add one up there, it didn't look balanced with them all down there!
The bear image is one of two sheets I got free on a magazine (Do Crafts Creativity). The brads are glittery, and I got them today at The Range. 24 for £1.49. Bargain!
Other doobrys are from my stash, except for the 'Merry Christmas' message, which I typed in Word and printed out on card.
I didn't realise the stickers were so thin, and if you look closely you'll see that the pattern on the tartan circle actually shows through his belly! I should have stuck him onto white card first and then cut around him. Hey ho! I'll know next time. I just wasn't with it today!
Hi Helena, you have a wonderful blog and thank you for the comment you left on my card. Your card is gorgeous and even more so as you had to get so creative with the cutting of the circles LOL! Your drawings are absolutely stunning, I could almost stroke all of them. Chris x

I don't know about cheating - don't know the rules! - but surely it's permitted to use the outline as a kind of springboard. I think you've produced a really pretty card.
