Week 4! Can you believe how quickly these weeks are flying by!!!?! Today's card is another card I just love! I was inspired by this card by Martha. I loved how peaceful this card is with just the little polar bear! I did change mine up a little though. I really wanted to 'frame' my bear. I don't know why but I kept thinking of this card and it always had a silver frame. So I went with it. I made the frame by cutting a square that was about 3.5x3.5. Then using my paper cutter I cut another square out of the center of the square. The smaller square is about 2.5x2.5. So I was left with a .5 inch frame. If you have the square framelits you can do the same thing with the framelits. I've had a hard time convincing myself that I need the square framelits because I can cut a square, I can cut a square out of a square see where I'm stuck :)
Now we have the frame, we need the polar bear. I fussy cut him out. I know some people don't like to fussy cut, I actually do! Weird? Maybe, but I enjoy it! I used some All Is Calm DSP for the background and just cut some random hills for the polar bear. To finish the card I added a greeting and some sequins. It's really lovely in person and I think the frame brings everything together.
