Bear Hugs for Blackleaf Studio

Hey Everyone,

Happy Thursday, and its my turn to write a post on Blackleaf Studio. Its Step by Step Thursday time and I have this quickie pocket card for you guys.

A bear hug for you. I know, nobody minds to get a hug or cuddle at any time :). I made this pocket card wherein a bear can be popped out to hug you. A circular card with DP pocket and the handwritten sentiment is hanging like a banner. Here is a close up of this cute bear.

This bear is from a Cuddle Bear Stamp Set from Blackleaf Studio. I colored it with my markers in a slight asymmetric manner to give it a shaded furry look. The eyes are dotted with black rhinestones. For all the steps, hop on to Blackleaf Design blog.
