Stamps (Hero Arts) - Lil Hoot, Friendly Flags & Be Happy
I started by inking a panel of white card with faded jeans and tumbled glass distress inks and splashed some water on it. My good friend Linda sent me the gorgeous die cut tree trunks (thanks again, Linda!) and I applied some antique linen distress ink to them before adhering them to the card with foam pads. Scraps of green card were used for the background and grass. I embossed the flags and placed them on a piece of baker's twine which had been strung through the trees. It's hard to tell from the photo, but for some dimension, the big bear's head has been layered once and the little bear's head twice.
I'm submitting this card into A Blog Named Hero's New Year, New Stash Challenge, Simon Says Stamp's Emboss It Challenge and Paper Crafts and Scrapbooking January Gallery Challenge.
Hope you're having a great weekend! We're enjoying a lovely sunny but cool day:)

Oh, my gosh, that is so cute, Heather! Love the bears sitting in between the die-cut trees! Brilliant design! ♥
Ahhhhhh! This is too darn dear, Heather! What personality you have captured with these little guys. Amazing coloring and great scene. What is that wonderful tree trunk die? Gotta have it! Thanks!
Thanks so much, Lin, Barb and Maureen:)
Maureen, the die is birch tree by Taylored Expressions http://tayloredexpressions.com/birch-tree-cutting-plate.html . I see they have another lovely one called birch tree border http://tayloredexpressions.com/birch-tree-border.html
what a totally adorable card Heather. It really is super cute.
Delightful! Love the scene.
Completely adorable! I love the dimension on the bears' heads.
Just darling, Heather - love the coloring on your sweet bears and the yummy sky background!! What a great idea to trim off a few trees from that die cut panel I sent you! They make a fine forest for your bears!!
Gorgeous card Heather, super cute bears and I love the background.
