Bear Celebration card

I couldn’t resist making a sweet celebration card using the adorable bear from the Count on Me stamp set and the Hues of Happiness dsp.

 

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the bear celebration card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Hues of Happiness dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 4” by 2½”
Early Espresso card – 2” by ½”

 

The dsp was added to the Thick Basic White card using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I ran a strip of Seal + in the middle and zigzagged a strip of White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon down the panel.

I die cut a deckled rectangle, using the Deckled Rectangle Dies from the small panel of Basic White card.

The cute bear was then stamped onto the deckled rectangle using Early Espresso ink. I added grass using Granny Apple Green ink.

The following Blends Pens were used to colour in the image – Crumb Cake, Fresh Freesia, Petal Pink and Pool Party. I like to edge the image with a light colour ink to ‘ground’ the image and use a Color Lifter to blur the edges of the colouring. The panel was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Early Espresso card, covered it in White Embossing Powder and heat set it. I trimmed the strip down before adding it to the card front.
