Sneak Peek: Bear Friends

Hi, everyone! Marge here and I’m so excited to share sneak peek cards for the new August Release from Pretty Pink Posh, today. I’m going to showcase two cards featuring Bear Friends Set from the new release.

Pretty Pink Posh- Sneak Peek: Bear Friends

I started by stamping and coloring Bear Friends Set using Copic Markers and cut them all using Bear Friends Coordinating Dies. As you can see in the picture below, there are 10 images in the set including four pieces of adorable bears, two tiny leaves, honey, grass, a tree stump, and a butterfly. Aren’t they really cute? I had great fun coloring them.

In order to make a background for the bears, I decided to create a sky with clouds using Stitched Borders 2 Dies.I had once made a cloudy border stencil out of acetate film by diecutting it with Stitched Borders 2 Dies, which I had been keeping for reuse. Using my DIY Stencil and some dye inks, I made an ink-blended background as shown below. For the hill, I simply cut another piece of acetate film in a negative hill shape by freehand and used it as a stencil.

Once I finished my panel, the next steps were very easy. I just adhered my colored images to create a scene using Glue Dots and foam tapes. I also adhered several images from Woodland CrittersPumpkin Patch Critters, and Autumn Wreath Set to make the scene into an autumn one. Next, I added white accents to the images using a 10mm ball white gel pen.

A sentiment from the Bear Friends Set was heat embossed in white on a red tag mad with Stitched Labels 1 Dies, which was adhered on the left upper corner, and then I embellished my card using Sparkling Clear Sequins Mix and 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins

My second project for today is a shaker card using the new pumpkin-shaped Grateful Shaker Die.

I started with Autumn Leaves Stencil, which is also part of the new release to make an autumn scene.In detail, I ink blended a piece of A2 sized Bristol paper using the dye inks shown below, then I placed Autumn Leaves Stencil onto it and inked through the stencil again to create a tone-on-tone look. I made another panel with lighter colors to be used in the shaker background.

Next, I diecut the panel with Grateful Shaker Die and assembled a shaker filled with various sequins: 6mm Metallic Gold, 4mm Metallic Gold6mm Mossy Green4mm Mossy Green,6mm Marigold4mm Marigold6mm Espresso4mm Espresso, TangerineGold Shimmer Seed BeadsSpring Green Seed Beads, and Sparkling Clear Seed Beads.

I diecut Grateful Shaker Die two times and glued them together for a dimensional look. The top layer was colored slightly using Copic Markers.I adhered images from Bear Friends Set and Pumpkin Patch Critters Set around the shaker, adhered the shaker onto a card base and finished it off.

  2. Oh no!! I told myself I couldnโ€™t buy any more stamp sets with bears because I already have so many of them, and I should be buying other animals to be a little more dimensional. This set is SO cute, and I โ€œneedโ€ it beary much! Thanks so much for sharing these adorable cards, Marge! They are amazing! Your coloring is always so on point! <3!
