Santa Bear

I've had this paper since last year. I find it hard...as the paper is kinda antique-ie...I know that's not a word...but it should be...anyways...it's really hard to match. I love it because it reminds me of all that retro printed Christmas stuff you see...but it's still hard to use. This is what I've come up with...love this little bear...inside I used one of the clip art cards that goes with the line...easy and fast...gotta love that. Thanks for stopping by...Lee-Ann :)
