Peeking Winter Bear

Hello & welcome! I wanted to play along with Darnell & her IDEAS program (see her beautiful inspiration HERE). This week A=Anything Goes and I wanted to do a Christmas card to build the stash. But what products to use??

Hero Arts just announced their 2024 Holiday Shopbox and I saw that my favorite local store participated this year! I popped over yesterday and picked up some new products not available yet, except at a Shopbox store. I knew right away that I'd use Peeking Winter Bear first - so cute!!

Supplies: Paper - Spellbinders A2 card;

Neenah Classic Crest Solar white;

Sunny Studio Holiday Cheer; scraps

Dies - Hero Arts Peeking Winter Bear;

Lawn Fawn Winter Wonderland Window;

Waffle Flower Christmas Banners

Other - Copic Markers

Die cut the bear 3 times from white & stacked for dimension. Next, I die cut the face bits from scraps of grey and black; trimmed & added to the bear. Did some shading with Copics. Die cut the accessories from a scrap of red & added to the bear. Adhered patterned papers to an A2 card, then added the bear. Die cut the sentiment from a scrap of black & adhered to the card. It looked a bit bare so I found some snowflakes in the bits box, plus die cut some more. Added them around the card and one to the bear's hat - done!

Since my bear got first play today, I'll send my card to Darnell's July NBUS Challenge #64. Will also add to Merry Little Christmas Challenge #57 where Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by & have a crafty day!!
