Cute Card Thursday ~ bright colours

This week on Cute Card Thursday the challenge is to use bright colours!
This seems to be as bright as I go, so this was quite a challenge for me as I tend towards more muted tones and distressed finishes. The paper is Kaisercraft, I only discovered them recently but the paper is fabulous quality! You can buy it from TracyJanecrafts along with more beautiful papers and embellishments.
This is the first outing for this sweet stamp by Sugar Nellie, it is the gorgeous Sweet Art Ebony 'sitting with bear' designed by Elisabeth Bell.
This week we have two fabulous stamps to give away from Kitty at
they are from the fantastic Max and Milly range designed by Janet Roberts
Pop on over to see the stamps and also the fabulous cards created by the design team!

Supplies: Stamp ~ Sugar Nellie 'sitting with bear' coloured with watercolour paints
DP ~ Kaisercraft 'Bloom-bouquet'
Embellishments ~ Kaiser adhesive pearls, Prima leaf, Scissor Sisters flower, rub on from stash and charms from Jeneca Beads.
