So many candles

Hello lovely people,

Does anyone else sometimes find a blog post lurking in your drafts that you thought you'd posted?

Well, I just did and it was far too cute to leave in my drafts folder, so I'm sharing it now.   I made these cards using one of the images from the last LOTV launch, which was the Novem-bears...

...co-incidentally there is another fantastic new release from LOTV today, and I've already shared lots of cards from that, so today I'm all about the bears!

This little guy peeking out from the candles totally stole my heart and I picked out some lovely colourful paper and coloured the candles to match.

Now, I liked this image soooooo much that I really wanted to see what it looked like in black and white but with just a few pops of red, so I decided to do that too!

The sentiment is from an MFT set and seemed the perfect fit!

I added some Crystal Glamour Dust to the candle flames on both images.
