“I Think You Are Beary Special” slider card
Long days filled with
sunshine begin to fade and the crisp evening breezes begin to call for cozy
wool knit sweaters as the fall season slowly ushers out the lazy days of
summer! Along with the falling leaves and a last surge of floral blossoms,
autumn brings with it a more relaxed and reflective way of life and a reminder
that winter will soon be around the corner. Autumn also brings with it a fun
that only autumn can bring…playing in crisp piles of fallen leaves, picnics
with warm beverages, cozy evenings spent around the campfire and exploring
fields filled with rows and rows of sunflowers bowing their heads giving way to
the season! Even the animals of the forest recognize and celebrate the subtle
arrival of autumn, spending their last few days before hibernation playing and
making preparations for the arrival of the upcoming winter season. Come along
with us and join in our fall festivities as we go on one final fun filled
retreat with the Beary Fun Retreat Collection by Heartfelt Creations! Filled
with delightful and captivating illustrations of adorable bears, this autumn
themed collection is sure to appeal to all ages! Perfect for celebrating an
array of occasions, this fun loving assembling of stamps, dies and decorative
papers will bring a whimsical and lighthearted touch to all of your paper
crafting creations. The dynamic paper collection boasts a color palette filled
with beautiful tones of burnt oranges, rusty reds, midnight blues, along with
leaf like greens and golden yellows all mixed with checkered plaids, decorative
stripes and gorgeous imagery of blooming sunflowers and falling leaves. Three
sets of detailed cling stamps with coordinating dies allow you to join in the
fall themed fun of a charismatic bear family enjoying their last retreat before
winter sets in. Whether sitting around the campfire roasting marshmallows near
an adorable treehouse, enjoying songs strummed out quietly on guitar, or
filling up on delightful meals of honey, these cute images are ideal for
embellishing all of your fall themed cards and scrapbook layouts! So throw on a
cozy sweater, grab a cup of hot cocoa and join in the fun as we enjoy one last
“beary” fun filled autumn retreat!

The marshmallows on sticks are trimmed away from the bears.
The grass and stone boarder and flower boarders are found in the Woodsy Wonderland stamp and die sets. These are trimmed to fit.

Adhere a few leaves and a bear at the top of the slider and top of the card front so they slide into each other to form a cluster.
To finish the card apply stickles to the flower centres and ironwork on the house.
