Bear Hugs!!!
Hi readers! Happy Monday to you! I’m so pleased to have the amazing Pamela Ho back as our guest today. She’s using some fabulous new Mama Elephant stamps and dies that are sure to pull at your heart strings. Read on and enjoy!
When I was making this card, I was caught in the middle of a house renovation with half of my supplies moved out and half of my supplies packed up. It was definitely interesting to see what I was able to create using some limited supplies. Given this situation, I would definitely say that the Big Shot, craft knife, scissors, foam tape, and a score board is a must-have!
I started out by stamping Big bear and Little bear on a piece of cardstock and did some partial die-cutting for a frame. I then coloured them with my copic markers. I took out my watercolour cakes and my water brush and painted a sky background on a piece of watercolour paper which I then adhered to my cardbase. I adhered the frame with some foam tape and finished off with a simple sentiment.
It was a fun challenge to see what I could create with some limited tools and goodies.
