This week's challenge is: "BEARY Special" - create a project that includes a bear.
In honor of 'back to school' time, I decided to create a card which may also be used as a mini-album out of a brown paper bag. My scan doesn't let you see that so well but my family thought it was cute. I wish my children all the best as they return to school on Monday.
Supplies ~
brown paper bag: Wal-Mart
black cardstock: American Crafts
speckled cream cardstock: Stampin' Up
textured red cardstock: Bazzill (Textured Red Devil)
handcut heart: by Nessa
green speckled paper: Wallies
bear stamp: PSX designs (Personal Stamp Xchange)
Hello! Stamp Set: Stampin' Up
watercolor pencils: Stampin' Up
inks: ColorBox gold pigment, Stampin' Up black craft, Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Tea Dye, VersaColor ink pad cube evergreen
ribbon: Garden Ridge Holiday Trimmings
red brads: unknown from a brad soup

This was a very fun project!

Lovely card and such a sweet image.
Your blog is fascinating, I've just lost a very pleasant 20 minutes or so reading some of it, but only scratching the surface I feel, but I'll come again for a longer visit.
All the best

Thanks so much for all of your wonderful comments! I appreciate you stopping by and taking a peek. :) I've had this little bear stamp for about 12 years now and he is one of the first stamps I ever bought who started my fun stamping addiction! He's a priceless treasure!
Margo - Thanks for your praise! As always, I appreciate it.
btw, It's hard to believe but I actually love getting ink on my fingers. :) You should have seen them after I made this card! Very colorful and one of the best things of stamping to me. :D
