Baby Bear.........


At the moment I'm making standard C5 cards for my workshops and I've made a few for my stash, but I've still got some shaped cards to show you. Here are a couple more scalloped oval cards, this time for babies, with the cutest bear as the focal point.
I cut the card base from plain white card and covered the front of the card with pink/blue paper. I then cut a plain oval from patterned paper shadowed with plain white cardstock. I added a punched ribbon trimmed border, then adhered the whole oval panel to the front of the card with foam pads. The bear was cut twice, from cardstock and patterned paper, adhered together for extra stability. I added contrasting paws, a ribbon bow, and teeny black pearls for the eyes and nose. The bear was adhered across the border with foam pads. 'Little Baby' was cut from glittercard shadowed with white cardstock. The sentiment has a heart between the two words but I removed it because otherwise the sentiment wouldn't fit on the card.


A bloom was added to the bow to complete the card.
