Beary LoveCompleted by Helen Jennings

As this is a good side topper, I used it to make an A4 card. I printed the sheet onto super smooth card and cut out the elements. I attached the bear layer with foam pads.

I folded a sheet of A3 pale pink peralised card to make an A4 card blank. I tore around the edges of an A4 piece of cream paper. using a pale pink chalk inkpad I inked the edges of the paper and then using the same ink, stamped a small rose design over the paper.

I attached this backing sheet to the card blank and then attached the topper and greeting with foam tape. I added a pink ribbon bow to the bottom of the topper and a cluster of paper roses to the top corner.

I finished the card off by adding two buttons with matching ribbon tied through and a length of the same ribbon tied around the spine.

I don't often make big cards, but this topper was crying out for a bigger canvas.
