I just finished making this card and thought I'd post it. I was actually in the process of making a bunch of cards for my stampin' girls and all of the sudden I saw my decor paper sitting there with the brown and cream stripes. I couldn't pass it up. I had to design something with it and chocolate chip cardstock! LOL!!! I decided to use my little bear from the bundle of joy Stampin' Up! stamp set in the spring mini catalog. I hadn't used him in forever and thought he'd go perfectly. I did my little scallops around the edge of the choc chip that backs him and then had to dot around it on the creamy caramel cardstock. I used my watercolor crayons to color him in. I added a butterfly from the butterfly kisses stamp set by: www.papertreyink.com . I cut out the butterfly and only attached his mid-section to the bears hand... so it looks like Mr. Bear is holding a butterfly. The bear with layers are up on dimensionals. Then the background above the ribbon is flowers and stars from the butterfly kisses stamp set too... Love it!!! I think I'm going to send this card to my nana or someone...hmmm. I will have to think on it. Well-- I'm off to bed! Have a happy Monday!
