It's the first Wednesday of the month and that means it's a Designer's Choice challenge over on The House that Stamps Built. Today Cheri has picked a the fun theme of "Bear Hugs" to inspire us! Repeat Impressions has quite a few bear themed stamps to pick from --- the one I'm showcasing today is called "Belle."
To create my card I:
- stamped 701-K, Belle in Tuxedo Black Ink (Memento) and colored her in with Prismacolor Pencils
- using the Circle Nestabilities (Spellbinders) I cut her out and inked around the circle with Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- I matted my sweet bear on a brown scallop circle (Spellbinders nestabilities) and popped it up over my background with foam mounting tape
- the background is two pieces of designer paper from my stash and a piece of paper lace punched with the Embroidery Deep Edge Punch from Martha Stewart
- I inked the top edge with Ground Espresso Distress Ink (Ranger) added a die cut sentiment from Spellbinders Sentiments Five set
- For my blog readers: Enjoy the 10% discount code to the Repeat Impressions Store posted on the sidebar
- There's a new challenge every week over at The House That Stamps Built

- One lucky person will win a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate on the first Wednesday of every month

Isn't she cute! Great coloring and the paper you have used have showcased her beautifully.
Cute, cute, cute, Shirley. I love the newspaper background. Belle is one of my favorite bear stamps from Repeat Impressions. She gets a lot of "hugs" from me...I use her a lot.
That is one smart Teddy, she looks lovely all dressed up. Great background too.
Thank you for joining our 'Pretty Papers' challenge at Allsorts.
