Bear Hugs

Ooops - sorry about that! I scheduled this to post at 7:00 AM and for some reason it didn't!  Oh well! Enjoy a bit late! :)

Only 1 more day folks - The Cat's Pajamas' Release party is Monday night!  Have you been keeping track of the sneak peeks?  Is your list long?  Come party with us tomorrow night!

Today's sneak peek is Bear Hugs - a seriously cute bear that everyone has fallen in love with!  As I mentioned before, I'm stuck in a pink mode lately. I think this is my favorite time of year to make cards, which is funny because I never was much of a pink girl - but for crafting I love it!  So

I pulled the colors straight out of the heart paper from American Crafts.  The sweet heart and the bears hands are cut out and popped up for some dimension.  Notice that I've used the new Heart Trio Cut-Ups die again today . . . not putting that baby down anytime soon! LOL!  I used a white gel pen to accentuate the fun piercings around the larges heart - the die adds those piercings oh-so-perfectly when you cut it out! Viola!


Here are the products that I used on my card today.  For more, check out Alma's blog to see who else is peeking today.  I'll see you tomorrow night!

ETA:  Forgot to tell you that I used The Sweet Stop's Saturday Sketch (#90) for this one! :)
