Hi, friends! Are you looking for ways to make your next handmade card go from “wow” to “WOWZERS”? Teri here to show you how to make a card for a special friend, You’re Beary Special Card, and share a few tricks you’ll love trying next time you create!
Create the You’re Beary Special Card Front
Start by covering a card base with patterned paper and cardstock. Consider giving your cardstock panel some texture by adding some embossing to it with an embossing folder.
Embellish with Creative Photo Corners
Add a row of Creative Photo Corners Silver to your panel. Try to make a straight line, but don’t worry if you need to spread them to go to both ends of the card.
Sentiment
Add a strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape over the top of your corners. Apply flock or glitter to the tape. Stamp a sentiment on a thin strip of cardstock. Apply it, partly over your flocking and partly over row of photo corners.
Create a Stamped Scene
Stamp, color, and die-cut several images. If you don’t have bears, no worries! Just pick out some cute images to make a scene of your own. Keep a couple of the stamped images and adhere the rest onto your card with a flat adhesive like the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
Grab the remaining images and place 3D Foam Squares White Mix onto them. Mount them on the card. These images will stand out from your others.
Complete your card by adding a few sequins to it. Adhesive Dots Micro work great for securing most sequins down. Simply place a dot on your card and mount a sequin on top.
I hope you are inspired to try a few of the tricks I’ve shared today next time you sit down to create!
Happy Creating!
