My first card is using the Bumble Bear Digital Set. This has 14 stamps between images and sentiments. The base is textured card stock and the second layer is an inked layer that I prepared with Catherine Pooler Inks. the tiny Dark Brown Teddy Bears, are part of the exclusive collection of Kat Scrappiness.

The top layer is an slimline layer that I made using the Embossed Edge Nesting Slimline Dies from Kat Scrappines and the Sweet Hexi by RG Avenue. Additionally, I printed the Bumble Bear onto white card stock and colored it using Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir.

Marker colors used were for the flower, FS6 and CR2, AG5 and AG7, RB1 and RB2. For the Bumble Bear, CT1 and CT4, TN4 and TN6, BG1 and BG3, and IB1 and Blender for the winds.

For my second card, I used one of the images included on the Spring Basket Floral. I am fascinated with the different types of flowers that this digital set includes. I used a combination of tulips that I colored with Illustrator Markers and fussy cut with scissors.

For the background, I used one of the the Ornamental Valance Etched Dies Flourished Fretwork by Becca Feeken by Spellbinders. I just pasted the die cut layer onto the card base using crafty foam tape.

Above card is another type of flower included on the Spring Floral Basket.

The digital images can be resized or editing but honestly I don’t have enough time to play with them. For me the most easy way is print the jpg version or pdf version included on the set directly onto white card stock and enjoy my time coloring. Then, I fussy cut and create the cards with my personal style.
