Last week, I had the chance to create a couple cards using some images from Lili of the Valley. I shared the little girl card last week and have this little teddy bear card to share today. I just love this adorable image! It’s called Little Lorry Bear. I used some patterned papers from the Lime Twist: Fly a Kite patterned paper pad from My Mind’s Eye.
I stamped the image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink and colored it with copic markers. I used these marker colors: R24, R27, R29, R46, R89, Y35, YR04, YR07, YG05, E53, E55, E57, E31, E33, E35, E37, W3, BG000, BG01, BG32, BG53, colorless blender.
I die cut my image with a circle nestability die before using my air compressor and some copic markers to spray the background. I added some glossy accents to the balloon to make it shiny. After stitching my layers, I wrapped some red grosgrain ribbon and some baker’s twine around my patterned paper layers before adhering them to my card base. Then, I used foam adhesive to adhere my image and sentiment (from Catslife Press). I finished off my card with some corrugated stars from Close to My Heart and some red buttons stitched with baker’s twine.
Have a great weekend!

What a great little boy card. That bear is so cute. I have been meaning to ask you if you had formal art training of some kind because your coloring is so amazing. Happy Saturday!
