A Bear Makes a Birthday Card

Good evening Blogland. I've finally wrested the ipaw from Horace, who is a bit of a bloghog, so I can make a much needed 25th birthday card for a bear in law. The bear in law in question likes Alice in Wonderland, but as it's a boybear in law, the card needed to also be masculine in design. I found a great White Rabbit image, and some corresponding patterned papers...


I started by cutting a background to fit the card base.


Then cut my rabbit image





I needed some numbers and letters to add a personal touch to the card, so I sorted through the bears' stash, and found these.


I formed a frame for my rabbit, and added some 3d double sided foam stickers to the back of this.


A 3d effect adds a little interest to cards in my ponderous panda opinion


Here's my finished card, i added the number 25 to the rabbit's scroll, as if he was about to announce the special birthday.


I also added our recipients name to the bottom of the card. I do enjoy making personalised cards.


It feels like there's something on my nose, there's not, is there?


With love from the bears.
