Are you ready for five more new Power Poppy stamp sets? Today we introduce Collection Two of the Quiet Christmas release, starting with Forest Fellas.
Love, love, love this set of woodsy critters all dressed up for winter! Marcella has made them big enough for impact, yet small enough for us to enjoy designing a card around them. They're available as digital downloads, too, but today I'm representing the physical stamp set so you can see the actual size on an A2 card.
My cool guy is colored with Copics and hanging out on plaid and wood grain. I added a little sparkle around him, but otherwise it's a simple image panel. On future cards I'll use some of the accent stamps to create more of a scene.
If you haven't been there yet, be sure to visit the Power Poppy Blog to see Marcella's post and more uber-cute samples. Lots more to come. Stay cool!

Ack! I love this card Leslie! You made the 'cool guy' look amazing with your colouring! Love everything about this, so rustic, fantastic papers and layout! And your right, you could use this image more than just a Christmas card, a great masculine card. Love this set, can't wait to see the next critter you decide to colour! Thanks for sharing today, looking forward to the rest of the release! Keep well!
This set looks so neat! I love all of the other little creatures! Your bear is so cute and definitely lives up to the sentiment you used! You are right that this set can be used all year long! Joe would love the moose! Take care!
He looks so cozy and lumberjack cool Leslie! Such great plaids too!

OMG he's so cute in his dungarees and scarf. Love your wooden board background and tartan DP :)
Oh my goodness what a cute bear! - Well in fact that entire set is super fun and cute. - Love the plaid designer paper and the sentiment fits that bear to a "tea" (couldn't resist that).
That IS the coolest bear I've seen, Leslie! LOVE that you've paired him with plaid and wood ... just perfect! Your colouring always is the BEST! xx
I just love that sweet bear. Your card is the perfect place for him and anyone would love to see this come to them at Christmas! Well done!
Great job on this bear! He looks like he certainly has something to say. Great inspiration and I can't wait to color him up. I sure hope that you are feeling better.
Brilliant image-yes love the little watch -fabulous colouring and perfect P.papers

He certainly is a laid-back critter, for sure. I can see him reclining in a La-Z-Boy watching a little TV. :) You've colored him amazingly, of course, and finished off the card perfectly.
So much adorable detail on your staying cool Winter dressed up bear, Leslie. Love your woodgrain and plaid backgrounds too. Your Copics coloring is gorgeous as always. A card to enjoy and treasure, my friend. Can't wait to see a scene with more of the adorable critters. TFS. Love and Hugs...Nancy
This is so adorable, I love that stamp set. You have used it perfectly, from the design with the plaid accents to your impeccable coloring. Just gorgeous, I'm pinning.
That bear does look so content but then with having coffee that is understandable. Haha! Your coloring of this image is outstanding too. I love the whole layout of the design.
another lovely card. have a great day
Wow! I love this set. Your cool bear is so cute. I love your coloring and the texture you added to his clothes. It looks great! Great layout too with the plaid and wood grain. It does look like it could be used in a lot of ways.

Oh, Leslie, I LOVE your sweet bear and agree that he is just oh so charming, relaxed, and yet quite the dapper fella with the watch. Hehe! Your coloring is fabulous, and I hesitated about coloring mine since black bears are so friendly (for bears). Just love his scarf too and the wonderful papers and layout! Totally charming and delightful, my friend. You always delight us with everything you do. I agree with Paula about being eager to see what you do with the other "fellas" in this set!! Hugs and love! xoxo
Sheeesh!! We finally got the Internet back, it's been off since maybe 9am.
Anyway, I love this sweet image, I just want to hug this bear, wonderful coloring as always, my friend, and your layout and details makes this card a feast for the eyes.
Love your pattern papers too, just beautiful.
Thank you for sharing.
Stay healthy and safe.
Hugs,
Maria.

OMG what a fabulous set and you've showcased this 'handsome' guy perfectly! Your coloring is spot on and LOVE the way you've incorporated the plaid! Fabulous inspiration ... thanks SO MUCH!!
Leslie, your coloring is gorgeous and the card design is fantastic. Love love love this card.
You know I LOVE this! That black bear looks great hanging out with wood and plaid and that gorgeous striped scarf to keep him warm. I just keep looking at his nose because you know? It looks REAL.I think the sparkle is perfect!I like that gold bow - and are those sparkly drops too!
Can't wait to see the next one, Leslie!
This fella looks so warm and cozy and the wood and plaid go perfectly with him! What a fun card, Leslie!
Oh my I love this, terrific coloring of him, like his cool scarf, the watch is a great touch too. I love the wood and plaid combo for the background and I like the touch with the banners at the bottom too with your sweet bow, you just topped this image off great with your extra touches!
Aren't they gorgeous!! I just love your card..The design the papers the colours and especially your perfectly coloured bear! Your talent is amazing
Leslie he is totally adorable! I like that you went with a black bear. The papers, sketch and your coloring are awesome. Totally diggin this!
So many times I've passed up a stamp or die, because they didn't appeal to me. But then I stop by and see the cutest card made with one or the other. This is just the case with this bear!! I love everything about this card. And he put a smile on my face.
