I made it a Christmas scene, by stamping a gift, from GKD, Just a Little Something. Die cut a cardinal on top. He is stamped in White GKD ink on to Christmas Pine CS. I used a design from Warm Woolen Mittens to stamp the design on the white card base.
Here is my card
On the vellum strip, I printed the word Beary with a Versamark pen and heat embossed with platinum powder. A wooden snowflake with a silver bead was add to secure the strip. I found that I could use a double sticky tape to secure the other end of the vellum without it showing.
I think that I will make him into another card and he will be a pull out ornament. Or maybe a tag.... oh the possibilities!
I am entering this card in the Just Us Girls #266 Trend Week and
Simon Says Wednesday, Thinking of you.
