Heart Shaped Card -Teddy Loves Hugs & Kisses

I used my favourite colours again Pink & Green and as my daughter said when I had finished my heart shaped card “it’s very bright Mum”, well maybe she is right! We all need a hug sometimes and this is so very cute and bright to cheer anyone’s day, I picked this cute little teddy bear out at Whimsy and the sentiment inside . I borrowed my girlfriends Spellbinder Nested Hearts die (I use it way more than she does) and used my Spellbinder Scallop Hearts for all my layers. The pale pink layer has pretty love hearts and I decided to paper pierce all the scalloped hearts for extra detailing. I tried to make my bear look like he was so loved.. he was losing some fur in places, just like my favourite bear who is so well worn he’s  nearly bald!

Bugaboo Stamps Dino Heart 1

I do hope you will be able to join us for our very first challenge over at Card Crafters Circle. Our theme this week is CREATE FOR ANY CELEBRATION!

The challenge will run from Friday 16th December (Australian Time) for a week

This week we have Bugaboo Stamps sponsoring our challenge with the

winner’s prize - their choice of 7 images!

Here is my card

This is the very cute digital  image I used  and it’s available at Bugaboo Stamps Here
I borrowed my friend Vicki Fraser’s (who has Blog Candy at the moment) small polka dot embossing folder for the smaller heart,which I paper pieced. I also paper pieced his feet and embossed as well, and I think it just adds that something extra.


I cut a strip of cardstock and scored to create a zigzag strip to attach to his head so Dino could have a wobbly head! The other stamps (Nitwit Collections) I used on this card came as a free gift with Australian Simply Cards Magazine Issue 34. I used sandpaper on the embossed footprints and had a ball colouring in with my Copics. This is Basic Grey Ribbon , American Crafts Amplified Designer papers Saturday Night Fever and Boogie and matching American Crafts Elements Round Buttons in Leaf.
