Welcome to the Mediterranean Achievers Blog Hop. The theme is “love is in the air”. My thoughts went immediately to this cute bear from the Bear Hugs stamp set holding this heart in his hand.
Every day is a sunny day when you get a gift of love! The fence is made from the Farmer’s Market Designer Series Paper. For the notches on the top of the fence, I used the Tree Punch.
Because the bear’s arm is folded over, you need to stamp both sides of the bear. You can certainly use the Stamp-a-ma-jig for this, if you prefer, but I found this bear easy to do just eye-balling it. (Maybe that says I’m not a perfectionist – but – I have worked a long time to get over that!!! Perfectionism can be the enemy of completion … but that’s a story for another day….) Back to the bear!
After stamping and cutting out with the Framelit, just turn him over and stamp the other side. Add the lovely bright sun from the Over the Rainbow stamp set and assemble.
