Welcome back to our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenges. We have some fun winter cookies to inspire you this week!
BEARY CUTE
Stampin’ Up!’s Beary Cute Bundle worked perfectly for this challenge. even though I didn’t use the punch. The polar bear and her cub are just TOO cute!
Stampin’ Details:
-
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 2-3/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Basic White cardstock was torn across the top at a slant to make the snow bank. It was adhered to the bottom of the front.
- The snowflakes from Beary Cute stamp set were stamped with Coastal Cabana Ink. TIP: Place both on the same block to get more evenly spaced snowflakes!
- The larger and smaller bear and outline of the tree were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock. The inside of the tree was stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink, then colored with the Light Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends. All were hand-cut and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The hat and scarf were stamped with Coastal Cabana Ink on Basic White cardstock, then hand-cut and added to the bears.
- The ground under the bears and tree was highlighted with Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends for the shadows, the Wink of Stella added over the shadows. The outlines of the bears were also shadowed with Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends.
- Merry Christmas was stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink under the tree.
- A trio of Adhesive Backed Glitter Sequins were added to a few snowflakes in the background.
