Trim the Tree Bears

Here is my Design Team post today for Papercraftingworld
Today I am making Christmas presents ---I have 2 12x12 pictures to be framed and given as gifts.
I love Melinda's bears but I went nuts for this Flourished Tree as soon as I cut one!
My title and bears are from the Bears-W-Ornaments-SET-cf and the tree is Tree-Flourished-v12-CF

As you can see, I made 2 at the same time.  I had some color shaded paper -I cut out the tree and had an OMG idea, then I cut the 2nd one and inset them into the opposite page.  I used gold vellum behind the tree and cut the star from Cricut.  The santa hat was a die from Cottage Cutz and fit perfectly!!  I made the 2nd set of bears  POLAR, and they turned out sooo cute!
I shaded the bears with my Pebbles chalks ( these are one of my favorite things to shade)
I added a little gel pen and glossy accents to the faces and I have some 12x12 frames to make 2 awesome gifts!!
***I am loving the tree file ---- there is a bonus to cutting these....


I had these awesome flourish pieces left over - I will be using them on cards and scrapbook pages.

Merry Christmas Watercolor card



This awesome stamp is from Inky Antics and I colored it with Watercolor Markers.
I scribble on the craft mat and then pick up the color with my watercolor brush.
They give a great result!
The snowy hills are from Mama Elephant Borderlines.
Bow Easy for the final touch!  Best 5$ I ever spent!

I'm back in the Lady Cage after my vacation in Georgia --
This is my favorite House Mouse stamp.  Colored with my new alcohol markers from Blick! These are great and very affordable markers! Love them! 
 
 
The stamped image is cut from Mama Elephant die- All Prettied up!
The stamped border is Flourish from the Ton stamps.
Add the Bow-easy and all done!
