Bear Peeking in a Window

It has been my absolute pleasure to work with Jane’s Doodles this month at A Blog Named Hero. The images are darling. The quality is superb. Seriously, my wallet is not happy about this development.

This month it’s all about Clean and Simple and this is my card for the group challenge post. And I love it. There is a bear. Peeking through a window. Oh my gosh, it makes me giggle. I love his expression. He’s all “I know this might be creepy, but come on, I’m adorable. Let me in. Do you have snacks?” Now, I couldn’t exactly fit that on the card front as a sentiment, so I went with “congrats”. 🙂

This card is actually pretty simple. So, the card base is yellow cardstock that I clear embossed with a great background stamp from Hero Arts. The window is a die from My Favorite Things. The window frame is clear embossed on kraft card stock with a woodgrain stamp from Hero Arts. The background of the window, or, you know, the sky… I just used a wide marker Copic, BG10, and swiped that all over it to make it sky colored.

In this close-up you can see Mr. Bear again, in all his adorableness. And, you can also see that I used a star outline stamp from the Jane’s Doodles set to stamp some images in the sky. And then used a glitter pen to color those in for some interest.

Please come join us this month at A Blog Named Hero. The challenge is fun, easy, and there are prizes up for grabs!
