Bear with Hearts on a String card

I just love this little guy! He's too cute. The bear from Under the Stars, a camping themed set, is just too perfect for this fun card, inspired by several I've seen in cyberspace.

I stamped Mr. Bear and watercolored him with Watercolor Wonder Crayons and Aquapainters, and stamped a sentiment from the versatile set A Word For You. Then I added a strand of Hemp Twine with two rolled up mini glue dots in either hand. The Small Heart punch is just the right size to "string" along the line. I just love it!

The Woodgrain Background added a nice touch on Marina Mist, layered on the Riding Hood Red background. I also used the Cutter Kit to roughen the edges of the Marina Mist and add some more texture to balance out the mass of texture we have going on in the middle of the card with the hearts on the string.

We're making this card tomorrow night at Cheri's workshop. If you'd like to make this card, or you have a special request to learn a technique or use a certain stamp set, let me know and we'll set up a party for you and your friends! I'm a full-service demonstrator and I tailor my parties to please the hostesses, so call me today! PARTY AT YOUR PLACE!!! WHOO HOO!!
