Sparkle the Teddy Bear


We made this card during my last party - which was held in my basement studio! Everyone had a great time. This is such an adorable "Bountiful Bears" T-3257 stamp set!

I used some of my most favorite products to make this card:

Kraft cardstock - one of my staple cardstocks - looks good with just about any other cardstocks, makes colors pop, and works wonders with VersaMark.
Brown cardstock - such a rich chocolate brown color - brown is the new black.
Birch cardstock - sometimes white just doesn't cut it.
Burnt Sienna Palette Ink - this & Burnt Umber are my most used colors lately.
Color Dusters - come in a pkg of 4 - perfect for adding a bit of color (less than direct ink to paper). I used them for creating the background on this card.
Stardust Glittering Gel Pen - after receiving this pen as a gift, I use my beloved Stickles much less. One pen looks differently on different colors...and no mess!
Pop Dots - gotta add some dimension.
