Unusual for me but no stamping or colouring on this card. I was asked to make a 1st birthday card for a little girl who likes teddy bears, so I created this bear using punched circles and a bit of black card cut into a nose shape. I can't take credit for coming up with the idea as I seem to remember seeing something similar to this years ago.
This card will have to be my entry to the current challenge at Get Funky, which just happens to be 'Birthday Fun', as I'm running out of time. Due to having an upgrade on our PC a few weeks ago, my Papercraft Factory CD Roms need to be re-installed, but I can't quite remember where they are - this Blog isn't called CRAFTY CHAOS for nothing.
The white base card is A5 size and I've used Funky Hand papers leftover from a previous project - I think they are from the February Love collection on Craft The Year Away. The silver, glittery number and circles are from a sheet of card die-cuts that I had hanging around and the sentiment was created on the PC. The bear and his birthday sign are attached with foam pads for a little dimension (not sure if this shows up in the photos) and for a finishing touch I punched a few small flowers to go around the number 1.
