I created a background using the Rolling Clouds Stencil from MFT, blending brush, and Peacock Feathers distress ink.
I created grassy hills in the background using torn paper as my templates. Stamped the bear over top in black and then stamped again onto mixed media paper and watercoloured. Cut out the bear and adhered it over top of my stamped image. This just gives it a little more depth. I added the middle-sized frame from the new Sewing Stackers frame set (51-651) ... love this sweet embossed design!
