This set, Under the Stars, is so cute! It's another one I got free from Stampin' Up! When I saw this bear, I just knew I had to paper piece him. My card also follows the MoJo Sketch for the week. My card also follows the theme for Our Creative Corner--use stars!
A lot of times, when the sketches are long cards, I just take creative liberty and make mine the regular A2 size. For this card, I decided to keep it long so my card base is 8" x 8". Folded in half it's 8" x 4".
My colors come from a DSP that's not new to you if you follow my blog--To the Nines Specialty DSP. I'm so glad this DSP is staying for the next catalog!
I stamped the bear on Sahara Sand and then on several pieces of the DSP so that I could paper piece him. I used Short Order Alpha (retiring) for the U and R. I grabbed my Stamp-a-ma-Jig to line up the stars around the letters. A few extra stars and the "grrreat" punched with the Large Oval layered on the Scallop Oval finishes my card.
Be sure to check out these great sites for challenges! It really helps to get your stamping juices flowing!
Thanks for the visit!!
