HEY FRIENDS! It’s been awhile since I posted. With the holidays and new year, I’ve been playing catch-up on various tasks and projects. But I dropped everything and pulled out my markers when Colorado Craft Company announced a new release that included Anita Jeram. So here I am with a projected featuring the new Anita Jeram Bear Hugs stamp set. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.
Share the Love Release — Here’s How It Works
So this release is a little different – Colorado Craft Company offering a pre-sale of the release for four days only. All four days you will receive FREE SHIPPING on your order for the US and a $6.95 discount on all International orders. Pre-sale orders will ship between January 25th and February 2nd.
You can order in four ways:
- The Complete Share the Love 2024 release [ 3C ]
- Anita Jeram Share the Love Release 2024 Stamps Only Bundle [ 3C ]
- Big & Bold Smell The Roses Combo [ 3C ]
- the individual stamps in the release [ 3C ]
At the end of the four days, the release will be removed from the website and only become available once 3C is fully stocked (shipping around February 6th). So if you want these stamps now, you need to order NOW, else you’ll have to wait until 3C is full stocked AND you’ll have to pay for shipping.
Be sure to read to the end for the blog hop links and information on the giveaways from Colorado Craft Company.

I’d like to say that I came up with this card design myself… BUT I didn’t. It’s one of the card sketches from a 2015 Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge and you can find the sketch HERE. I love these sketches because they include the actual measurements!

Very beautiful cards. The new release is awesome. I especially like the mouse in the shamrocks.
Adorable is what that bear is and your design is lovely.
Oh Nancy, this card is absolutely wonderful! I love Panda Bears! Your card is very sweet, as all of your cards are!
I told my husband that it was his Valentine Day card so he needed to forget that he saw it and act surprised next month! 😂
Such an adorable card! Love this bear!!!
That bear is just so darn cute!! Your coloring is perfect! Thank you for sharing!
Great card! Love the bear!
This is so adorable. I love the bear and I love how you did the shading. I’ve been struggling with shading a black dog, so this helps me to see how others handle the darker colors.
Your panda card is so cute. You have some amazing coloring skills as well.
Love the Anita Jeram bear. Your coloring is beautiful. Sweet card.
Stunning card – I would never have thought of making the bear into a panda, but it works so well!
Your coloring of the bear is just right. It’s hard to do black and white, but your shading nailed it!
Adorable card!! Love the Panda!

Cute panda bear and I like this card sketch.
So cute!
Hi Nancy. Your card melts my heart and makes me smile. I love this new baby that Anita added to her line of critters. He is just the cutest. I like the layout using the patterned papers and of course your Copic shading on the panda is amazing. I am learning to Copic color. I recently learned about you, and I appreciate the way you put up a list of Copic markers needed for the project. I aspire to color like you one day. I enjoy your instructional YouTube videos too.
Hi Bo! Thank you for your kind words!
I just love Pandas! 🐼🐼🐼 Such a sweet card!
Great panda card; that pattern paper goes perfectly with it!
