Hello there!

I’m so excited to share in My Favorite Things’ exciting release today. The new Stacey Yacula set is called Joyful Heart Bears and is adorable! For today’s card, I’ve combined one of the images with one of the new Double the Love dies.

I started by creating a mask using the Grassy Hills die. I used masking paper to die cut the grass border and ink blended the green grass by masking the top, then I used the bottom of the die-cut mask to protect the green and ink-blended the top using the Cloud stencil. I also added some water droplets to the grass section to give it some texture.

Once the background was created, I used the vertical Double the Love die to die-cut the word love. I in-laid the letter “O” knowing I wanted to use the particular bear image above holding a balloon to take the place of the letter. I backed the letters with Gold Foil Specialty Cardstock by My Favorite Things.

I colored the images using Copic markers (E50, E31, E23, E57, BV000, BV00, R30, R43, RV14). To give the bear some furr, I used a brown colored pencil to had small hair strokes all over. Then I die cut-the images and added white gel highlights before adhering them to the card using foam tape. On some of the butterflies, I also added stitched trail lines for added interest.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this card! Thank you, MFT for giving me the opportunity to celebrate this new release with you! I hope you’ll return tomorrow for my second card using more new MFT products.

XOXO,
