This week we are “Casing Mary Brown”! Here’s her card that I chose from last year’s holiday catalog.
BEARY CUTE
And here’s how I updated her card using the new Beary Cute Bundle!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White c/s, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 1-1/4 x 5-1/2 strip of Night of Navy cardstock was added along the left side.
- The 2-3/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Beary Christmas DSP was adhered on top.
- A 1/4 x 5 strip of white Textured Shimmer Paper was added on the front.
- The 2-3/4 x 3 piece of Basic White c/s was sponged along the bottom with Balmy Blue Ink using a Blending Brush.
- The greeting was stamped with Night of Navy Ink along the bottom.
- On Basic White c/s, the tree was stamped with Night of Navy Ink, the tree inside was stamped with Shaded Spruce Ink, and the hat and scarf were stamped with Balmy Blue Ink. All were hand cut.
- The bear was stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Basic White c/s and punched with the Beary Cute Punch. All were added to the Basic White panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The panel was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of white Adhesive Backed Glitter Sequins were added to the tree and background.
