Hi stampers! Time for a fun, new Inspired By Challenge! Check out these cute prompts:
SO fun! And here's our optional sketch to use with the prompts, or alone:
Since my posts the last couple days have been Christmas-themed, I decided I'd better do a fall one....this would be good for a birthday or just a "thinking of you" card! Here we go:
I only have one little bear in all my stamp repertoire...or at least that I can remember! I didn't have any polar bears either, so I pulled out Thankful Forest Friends, some leafy papers and the wreath from Seasonal Swirls dies and went to work! I diecut three wreaths: Crumb Cake, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblebee, then colored some of the leaves on each one and layered them together:
I stamped and fussy-cut Mr Bear on Crumb Cake with Cinnamon Cider ink and layered him on top with a fussy-cut sentiment from Right at Home, a Pumpkin Pie grosgrain bow and some sequins from my stash. I also sponged the edges of my leafy paper to give it some warmth! I think Mr Bear is pretty happy being part of this fall decor!!! I am going to enter this at the Inspiration Station challenge as well...here's their prompt, and I was inspired by all the leaves!
I hope you'll find some inspiration from our photos and are ready to play along! Check out what the DT created at the Inspired By blog as well! Thanks for visiting today!
Cassidy's first try at chopsticks!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Your Fall card is most adorable, LeAnne! Love the wreath set but haven't done much with it yet! Your paper, the wreath and Mr Bear all go so well together and created a sweet card! Well done on the challenges! I hope Miss Cassidy did better than me when it came to holding chopsticks! I just could not get the hang of them but then again it doesn't help that my hands hurt most of the time. Her dinner looked yummy as well! TFS and have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWith a bear this cute, who needs more? LeAnne your fussy cutting skills are showing! LOve the dsp and this fabulous fall wreath!

Great, colorful card. I'm glad you chose autumn! Kudos to Cassidy. I have not been able to master chopsticks. So many people have worked with me to help but it just doesn't happen.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little bear on a sweet card. Love those autumn colors and that pretty wreath.
ReplyDeleteThis is darling!! I LOVE that wreath and the inked pattern paper is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI love this wreath with the Fall colored leaves and the sweet bear, LeAnne! I'd go hungry if I had to corral my meal with chopsticks! Go Cassidy!
ReplyDeleteWho needs another bear in your stamp repertoire when you have one as handsome as this! What a delightful card, LeAnne!
ReplyDeleteI love this - your card is so perfect for the fall photo LeAnne! I'm going to have to go digging to see if I can find some bears - I do love this week's photos! Great use of the leafy wreath too - I can't get enough of this lately!
ReplyDeleteTHIS bear is ALL you need in my opinion (as I've shared with you) he is THE cutest and your card is the definition of Autumn my friend!
ReplyDeleteWow this is so gloriously fall! Love the wreath and the colors are perfect!
