Snowglobe Backer Bear in the Bramble Collage by Jean Okimoto

Thanks for all of your thoughtful comments during last week's Christmas Blog Blitz and congrats to all of the prizewinners! Have fun creating special holiday and all-occasion cards with the great dies and papers in our latest release. Hi, Jean Okimoto here with a lot of colors and details on today's card...hope you like the results!

The sweet little Polar Bear from the new Snowglobe Backer holiday set is great for a friendship card too. Add a trio of glittered Resting Birds and tuck them into the Bramble Collage.

Cut the Garland 6x6 corner floral print with the 4-¼" x 5-½" Wrapped Stitch Rectangles die. Cut the rectangle with the Bramble Collage. Cut the large mound from the Poppystamps Whittle Mounds set from the olive green Garland Stripes & Dots 6x6 print. Attach the mound behind the bottom of the Bramble Collage.

Cut the bear - from the new Snowglobe Backer set - twice from Dark Kraft cardstock. Use a paper piercing tool to define the eyes on one of the bear diecuts. Attach a scrap of black cardstock behind the diecut for his eyes and nose. Layer the diecuts for dimension.

Cut a small Heart Board heart from the red sheet in the 6x6 Frosted Glitter Pad. Cut Resting Birds from the yellow-green sheet in the Frosted Glitter Pad. Save the extra birds for another project or use them inside the card.

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded pale pink A-2 card

Stamp the greeting - from the Poppystamps Whittle Love Clear Stamps Set - on the smoother side of pale pink cardstock with Purple Delight VersaFine Clair. Quickly emboss it with detail clear powder. Attach the greeting with foamtape

Enjoy mixing, matching and layering the holiday icons and design elements in the Christmas Collection and create unique cards for everyone on your list. Thanks for visiting!
