I hope all of you in the US are okay after those wild tornadoes this weekend. There was some really scary footage on the news tonight. It had been forcast that we were going to have crummy weather this weekend but it turned out to be gorgeous here. Today was also beautiful but we had an earthquake! We have minor ones very occasionally (we're close to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge). I felt one once when I was a kid and I only felt it because I was sleeping on the floor (there's a pretty crazy story behind why but I'll save that for another day). I didn't feel today's quake but all the dogs (and the geese!) in the neigbourhood started making a racket around 12:30pm. An hour later my mom called to ask if I'd felt the earthquake! She'd felt it in her office in town but hadn't realised what it was until later. Weird... Last week there was a group here from the US who spent the day in town handing out flyers to everyone about how the world is supposed to end on May 21st. With all the wild weather stuff that's been going on lately it's not seeming all that crazy right now...
Despite all the excitement I got a few cards completed today. This one is for two challenges: Colour Cue Challenge #14 at WPlus9 and Woodware USA Challenge #23 - Die Cuts/Punches.
I used a cute Woodware teddy stamp which I paper pieced. The little tag is a Woodware punch that I got from England - I love their punches! When will they have their punches in the Woodware USA shop I wonder?

I hope nothing serious happens with the weather Jen. So far it has missed us. Adorable card....your Teddy is very sweet.
Your card makes me smile so and you've truly used these colors fantastically! Love it! Hope all is well.
This little bear is too cute.
Super cute card! I love your use of the colours and that little tag is fab!
Glad to hear that all is well there, I can't imagine experiencing an earthquake no matter how small.
Good question on the punches...I believe our owner of Woodware USA only has the rights to some of the images! I may have to pass along that question! Your card is adorable, and Teddy is one of my faves! Thank you for joining us this week at Woodware USA!!

An earthquake in Bermuda? I never knew! Glad it was only minor though. It's amazing how the animals feel everything. We should follow their lead! This is a super sweet card, Jen! I love how you used those beautiful colours!
