Need a Hug? + Belles and Whistles sketch challenge+bold winter colours + CYDA challenge Texture + Sweet Stampin challenge-buttons and bows

Good morning all are you all having a nice weekend or are you in need of a hug to warm you up or just because you want one, you know if everyone greeted each other with a nice hug the world would be a much nicer place don't you think, we did a bit of shopping yesterday in our local town and everyone seemed to be running here and there no smiles just grumpy faces, all they needed was to slow down, smile and have a hug...I love a good hug don't you...my card for today is a huggy one too, this fabulous little Belles and whistles stamp is called Beary Hugs I think, isn't she adorable and I love that teddy, I coloured her with Distress inks and teamed her up with these bright amazing papers from the Kaisercraft Tis the season paper pad, the bottom one is glossed and the other is flossed, I love them, the sentiment tag is from the same pad, I added some bows and a few buttons to finish it off, I used the sketch from the Belles and Whistles challenge, I'm also entering it for the Craft your Days Away texture challenge and the Sweet Stampin Buttons and Bows challenge too...have a fantastic day everyone and go on give someone a hug even if its just a cyber one
