It’s that time again!! This month’s spotlight card for Kitty Bee features an adorable little Hanging Around Bear. I cut the image using the Silhouette and coloured him using Pro-Markers.
The background was made with the latest addition to my rapidly expanding embossing folder collection! I inked one side of the Darice Clouds folder with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink, then ran it through the Cuttlebug to create a sky backdrop for the little bear, so that he looked like he was a long way above the ground! The image was popped on 3D foam pads to add a little depth.
I chose a Kraft background layer to tie in with the colour of the bear and embossed it with the Darice honeycomb folder to tie in with the bees and hive.
Finally, I attached a sentiment after inking the edges with a little Vintage Paper Distress Ink, and mounted the whole panel on a white card base.
This little guy is just one of many cute images over at Kitty Bee – hurry over there now to see the others!

I’m definitely not clever Judith, think I’ve just got too much time on my hands 😉
Sweet card using that cute bear image! Love the embossed layers, especially the cloud one (do I need this?!) – I’ve had a go a few times at inking the folder before embossing, but find it a bit hit and miss, think the lighter colours like this work best?! Fab CAS card!
Thanks for joining in with my theme this week at Passion for Promarkers! Lisa x
Thanks Lisa! Its the first time I’ve been happy with the results of inking the folder, definitely think lighter colours work best. As for the folder, you neeeeeed it! My favourite by far 🙂 x
