Mother's Love and Happy Days

It's been a busy but sun filled week here in Belgium. The bluebells are out under my oak tree and the little lambs are still skipping around in the field - they are too cute! I've been doing lots of drawing and working on some commission bears. I'd love you to see my two new Notecards
called Mother's Love and Happy Days. I had such fun creating them and working with the vibrant colours for my Happy Birthday clown bear. I love the gentleness of the Mama Bear with her cub, this would be the sweetest card for Mother's Day or a new mum.

I enjoyed trying out a new little set dressing for my photos of these cards which I hope you'll like. You can see these cards in my Etsy store.






Finally the weekend has arrived, have a great time everyone. Back soon with some exciting news of a venture with an Art Gallery! Beary Hugs, Catherine x

LOVE, love, love the new cards Catherine! They are sooo cute! I was just in your shop, but didn't see any more of the Momma Bear & Baby Bear cards...Will you be having more of those? I would love to send one to my sister next month for Mother's Day in the USA--her first mum's day. So glad you are enjoying the delights of spring...So are we this weekend too! :o) Happy Days, my friend ((HUGS))

The cards are fantastic, Catherine. I knew when you started your illustrations they would catch on like wildfire. They are just precious and give me the warm-fuzzies just looking at them. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. Warmly, Cathy
