Stay Snuggly

It is Stencil Week at Just Us Girls #794 and Lisa has designated it Anything Goes. I guess I have given in to fall being the season now (well, it is elsewhere). The sweater stencils in my stash need some use so here is my snuggly card with three bear friends. 












What I used:

Spellbinders - Festive friends dies, Stay Snuggly stamp set, Loops embossing folder

Concord & 9th - Stay Cozy stencil pack

Catherine Pooler - Queen for a Day Premium ink dye ink pad

Ranger - Distress Oxide ink pads

Altenew - Obsidian black ink pad

Pink and Main - Banner dies


I ink blended the embossed background for a "rustic" look after having chosen my sweater colors. I never seem to use purple, and I like it for a change. Using these bear dies is like playing with paper dolls, dressing them up in their stenciled sweaters.

The bears are popped up on foam tape with the center one on thicker foam squares to be in front of the other two. My card is 5" x 7" to accommodate three of these cute bears. 

We hope you will join us with stenciling, preferably the focus of your card! See you in the gallery!

Those guys are so much fun strutting around in their colorful winter sweaters, Carol. I finally got that bear die and have lots of plans for cool sweaters.
