Penny Black - Bear-y Wishful

Hi everyone.  Sharing a fun card using one of the new Daydream releases.  This uses a stamp called Bear-y Wishes (30-804) (it also has a matching die, Bear-y Wishful cut out 51-700).

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!

Close-up ...

I'm sending this card over to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge for March - Anything Goes ...
Thanks for stopping by for a visit!

Oh I do love this fuzzy wuzzy widdle bear!!! I was wishful I would own him by now - but he's still on my wish-list!
You have done a bang-up job coloring him, Loll - and made such a cute little scene for him to hang out in!

Your bear is super cute, Loll! Layering the cut-out bear over the stamped image definitely gave it depth and added more definition. Love the pretty background and the sweet stitched frame!
