thanks julia for reminding me how much fun it is to do pocket cards!
this bear and sentiment are from a new line of adorable stamps created by Carolyn King (aka our own cammie here on scs) that can be found at Gina K. Designs found here: http://www.stampingfreak.com/
make sure you check them out!
for the pocket card insert, i stamped the bear twice, coloring with prismacolor pencils and turpenoid. i cut out the head, arms and gift of one, and the body up to the armpits of the other. first i glued down the body part, then added the head section, glueing only the head, so the arms were free to lift up. (i hope this makes sense). therefore when you insert this into the pocket, the arms are free and he looks like he's hanging out over the flap.
i added crystal effect to the gift bow and the dots on his hat, for a little added texture.
thanks for looking!

Awesome awesome card!! So creative the way the bear sits in the pocket like that. Wow! Great papers and colors too. I also love the folded over front. So ingenious, the way you used this stamp!!! Blessings!!! xo
